The Emperor's New Groove is unique as being a complete alteration to Disney tradition; a complete stand-alone, and, quite possibly, the most underrated of Disney's masterpieces.
The film, a late (and, to a pessimist, quite possibly the last) edition to the Disney classics, may have been severely overlooked, is still a work of entertainment art; visually and, most of all, comically.
