Water-colour backgrounds and Art Garfunkel's high-pitched voice singing "Bright Eyes" versus doom's day metaphors and a general air of desolation. Welcome to Martin Rosen's ambitious if flawed adaptation of Richard Adams' best-seller. We're talking anti-Disney rabbits here. No Thumper in sight!
Feature-length cartoons with adult-oriented themes are always welcome, but the allegorical impact gets somewhat diminished by the whole stylistic indecisiveness of the pic. (Commercial interests may have played into it.) And the animation could've been more experimental.
Still, it's mostly a stimulating piece of work and the voice-cast is excellent.
