Scribble King

Lady and the Tramp is another typical Disney animated movie from the time when Walt himself was still at the helm.

Perhaps Disney's most romantic animated classic, "Lady and the Tramp" was the first feature length cartoon to use the wide-screen Cinemascope format. The film has as much appeal to adults as to children. Adults can enjoy both the humor and the ...read the complete Lady and the Tramp movie review at filmsgraded.com (Brian Koller)

They don't make movies like "Lady and the Tramp" any more. I know that's a cliche, but it's true. There was a classic lovability to this film that is so hard to achieve now. ...read the complete Lady and the Tramp movie review at 7M Pictures (Kevin Carr)

I'm not a big Disney fan, but I've always had a fondness for this movie - a guilty pleasure, if you will. Seeing it again, I believe that my pleasure needn't be so guilty. This is a film of gentle charm and wit, one of the more underrated animated Disney ...read the complete Lady and the Tramp movie review at CineScene.com (Chris Dashiell)

In the 1950s, Disney viewed the world as a "just-so" place - neat, tidy, and conformist. Everyone - even dogs - had just-so lives. ...read the complete Lady and the Tramp movie review at Apollo Guide (Brian Webster)

Chicago Reader (David Kehr)

Disney animation from 1955. It's not bad, but Disney's imagination seems at a low ebb here, saddled with a shrunken, excessively naturalistic style in line with the diminished possibilities of postwar animation, and not yet graced by the inspiration that ...read the complete Lady and the Tramp movie review at Chicago Reader (David Kehr)

Reel Film Reviews (David Nusair)

Though Lady and the Tramp ultimately comes off as a fairly inconsequential and somewhat overrated piece of work, there's no denying the film's effectiveness in terms of its lush animation and the palpable sense of congeniality with which it's been imbued. ...read the complete Lady and the Tramp movie review at Reel Film Reviews (David Nusair)
