- The enchanting tale begins in Paris, when a kind and eccentric millionairess wills her entire estate to her family - a family of adorable high-society cats. Overhearing her plan, Edgar (voice of Roddy Maude-Roxby), the greedy butler, catnaps Duchess (voices of Eva Gabor / Robie Lester), the elegant, soft-spoken mother, and her three mischievous kittens and abandons them in the French countryside. The charming Thomas O' Malley (voice of Phil Harris), a rough-and-tumble alley cat, saunters by and offers to escort them home.

Disney at its best. - The Aristocats review by CP Customer
I rented this dvd purely for myself!! I have always loved The Aristocats since i was a child and fancied a bit of reminicising! Well, i must admit it still does the same thing for me all these years later. Absolutely brilliant, full of fun, singing and dancing. An absolute cracker of a film. Well done to Walt Disney, a pure masterpiece.

A quintessentially brilliant & entertaining film, with excellent voice acting & script - The Aristocats review by TB
The Aristocats is one of the first films I remember watching as a child. It's combination of bright colours, iconic songs ("Everybody wants to be a cat!") and perfect voice acting made it a winning choice. And it has aged wonderfully over the years. It also had for me a couple of moments which are so funny, I burst out laughing every time (Roquefort cracking the padlock & O'Malley's reaction to the van braking.)
The tale of Duchess & her kittens being catnapped by the greedy butler of her owner in order to claim the estate after she passes is a simple one, but is populated with the classic characters found throughout Disney's stories. And in O'Malley, a tough alleycat who is instantly smitten with Duchess, you are taken on an adventure through the backstreets & countryside of France, complete with great music.
A brilliant adventure suitable for any age
