Oliver & Company

Curiously endearing Disney animated feature inspired by "Oliver Twist", transposing the Dickensian favorite fairly successfully to a modern-day New York setting - with the villainous Bill Sykes as a mobster (flanked by a couple of vicious mastiffs). Stylistically, it lies... Full review

I know it sounds weird because this movie was made when I was a child, you'd think I would've seen it at an earlier age. But I never did and my friend had the movie, I was curious and wondering... Full review

Disney began to get back on its feet in 1988 (well, theatrically) with "Oliver and Company," an animated feature. It's a great movie because it's a dog movie (and a cat one, too, unfortunately), and I love dogs!!!!! Here, a... Full review

OLIVER & COMPANY, in my opinion, is a very touching Disney classic about a special friendship for all ages that will warm your heart. I really loved the things that Oliver (voice of Joey Lawrence) and Jenny (voice of Natalie... Full review

In New York City 1988, an adorable kitten named Oliver ( voiced by Joey Lawrence) is abandoned after he wasn't sold as he wonders into the seedy streets of New York. The next day he befriends a lovable mongrel named... Full review

I think this is one of the greatest Disney films ever, yet it does not get much credit. I mean films like, Toy Story, Cinderella, etc, can be seen often on TV. But I've never seen Oliver and Company on... Full review

OK, I've seen this movie for the first time when I was 6 years old... This movie was actually made in 1988, the year I was born I haven't seen it in 11 years, and now I'm 17 I love... Full review

I just read the previous comment about this being a bad movie and that kind of indirectly hurt my feelings. It's just a nice little movie Disney made for pure entertainment and yes, it is directed toward children. It wasn't... Full review

We've seen a musical version of Oliver, even an animated series, but an animated musical with a cast of dogs and kitten called Oliver set in New York, you'd think it would be a disaster. But, thanks to Disney magic,... Full review

Oliver and Company is probably the least appreciated Disney movie ever, and yet it is excellent. I have loved it since I was very very young. I had a giant poster from its original release, and I would sing along... Full review

While I may be alone in saying so, I think that the animation, the characters, the story, and certainly the music in "Oliver & Company" are all better-than-average. And the retrospective view of "Oliver & Company" isn't any brighter, since it had the misfortune of being followed by the filim that many believe started another Disney golden age--"The Little Mermaid" (1989). ...

Heartwarming and suspenseful in the appropriate spots, "Oliver & Company" is also a very funny movie for adults and children alike (one-time professional dopehead Cheech Marin cleans up his act and provides hilarious comic turns as Tito, a scrawny, bug-eyed chihuahua who falls in love with Georgette, a vainglorious poodle with Bette Midler's voice). ...

Oliver & Company is a decent animated adventure This featurette spotlights some of the animals that have appeared in Disney films over the years, though takes a fair amount of time promoting Oliver & Company. ... Full Review

An orphaned kitten (voice of Joey Lawrence) meets up with a group of pick-pocket dogs, lead by the free-spirited Dodger (Billy Joel), who take a liking to little Oliver. The animation isn't up to standards with some of Disney's earlier and recent 90's efforts, but the acting is enjoyable and the fine music (from Joel, Huey Lewis and Bette Midler) is the closest Disney has ever come to a rock score. ...

The animation is artful Despite these Michael Jacksonian claims, "Oliver & Company" was a modest success, one that has never gone to video. ... Full Review
