It's difficult to know what kids accustomed to thewill make of the hand-drawn "NIMH" — though anyone with an appreciation for the classic Disney cartoons might see how it fits just to the side of the Disney canon.
"The Secret of NIMH" notably doesn’t wander too far afield for its characters. If anything, it shows off its animation bona fides by closely following the story of a heroic mouse. The film’s Mrs. Brisby is like a single-mom version of the mice from "The Rescuers," or perhaps a feminist spin on "The Great Mouse Detective."
But the movie breaks from Disney movies of the era in several important ways. Stylistically, it embraces darker tones. The occasional murkiness in "The Rescuers" and "The Fox and the Hound" sometimes feels more like clutter than atmosphere, while "NIMH" has a dusky, post-industrial look befitting its mouse-eye-view storytelling.
