- Synopsis:
One fine evening, in the beautiful heart of the English countryside, a group of rabbits emerge from their warren to feed. But as the sun sinks behind a hill, one of their number - Fiver - has a terrifying vision of the warren's destruction at the hands of man. Fiver, with his brother Hazel, and a few of their friends flee the warren in search of a "high lonely place" where they will be safe. Enduring danger and adventure, they find the place of their dreams - until a new shadow falls upon them, a ruthless race of rabbits who will stop at nothing to defend their supremacy... In this magnificent animation of the classic animal saga by Richard Adams, young and old alike will find themselves transported into the beauty, darkness and adventure of the natural world. - Directors:

Hop Along Quick to Rent This - Watership Down review by CP Customer
Sorry about the title!!
If you like liddle Bunnies, but something a bit more serious that Animals of Farthing Wood, then you must get this film. Its a must for adults and kids. It is not childish as some of these cartoons are. It has good bunnies and evil bunnies (and quite evil they are too) and a french seagull, hmm, it is also quite sad in some places. I am slighly biased as i like rabbits (but who doesn't)!
