If you have children and you are tired Inside Out 2 after watching a century, you might want to check out one of the best things released by Walt Disney Feature Animation during its early years: Atlantis: The Lost Empire. While I’m not throwing shade at Disney’s new ideas, I’m tired of being exposed to new things, and I’ve watched them. Aladdin most of the time as a kid I wouldn’t think about making my family’s Disney movie rotation because of my health.

Since I was very cool in school at that time Atlantis: The Lost Empire It was making its rounds, I just saw it for the first time recently. Although the development seems to be fast in the science fiction setting, the animation and sound are very good. And if you’re a Trekkie in need of reassurance, you’ll be happy to know that Leonard Nimoy’s talent is on full display with his portrayal of the King of Atlantis.

Trip Failed

Atlantis: The Lost Empire The first one goes back to 6800 BC to show us how the lost city of Atlantis was lost in the first place. In case you were wondering, it was the megatsunami that pushed the city under water, introducing us to Kashekim Nedakh (Leonard Nimoy), King of Atlantis, and his daughter, Kidagakash “Kida” Nedakh (voiced by Natalie Strom this time) mysteriously abandoned by the Queen of Atlantis.

Flash forward to the year 1914, and we are introduced to a difficult and difficult linguist named Milo Thatch (Michael J. Fox), who is very interested in the lost city of Atlantis but cannot get the necessary funds from the Smithsonian Institution to go on this trip using his extensive research.

Little did Milo know that his grandfather Thaddeus had a good deal with a millionaire named Preston B. Whitmore (John Mahoney), who is thinking of paying a large sum of money to go to Atlantis out of his own pocket. Giving Milo his precious copy The Shepherd’s Journal, a map that explains the way to Atlantis, and shows him to the army, Whitmore sends him on his way, and Atlantis: The Lost Empire they leave the streets, and fall into the ocean for the rest of the movie.

Don’t trust the Mercenary

Milo is overjoyed at his chance to test his knowledge of dead languages ​​and seafaring, and finally has the money to help fulfill his grandfather’s plan to find Atlantis, and see for himself the lost empire.

Joining Milo is a group of misfits led by Commander Lyle Tiberius Rourke (James Garner), including his deputy, Lieutenant Helga Katrina Sinclair (Claudia Christian), a demolitions specialist named Vinny (Don Novello), Dr. Joshua Strongbear Sweet (Phil Morris), a cook named Jebidiah Allardyce “Cookie” Farnsworth (Jim Varney), radio operator Wilhelmina Bertha Packard (Florence Stanley), and a French geologist who acts like a mole named Gaetan “Mole” Molière (Corey Burton).

After an unexpected attack by a leviathan that kills most of the support soldiers and sailors in a huge explosion, Milo and company finally find the lost city of Atlantis and reveal themselves to Kashekim Nedakh and the great Kida (Cree Summer). Although Kida approves of the idea of ​​allowing Milo to restore the history of Atlantis through his special abilities, Kashekim cares about the crew, and backs off thinking that they are not doing well.

As luck would have it, and to Milo’s surprise and disgust, Commander Rourke is only trying to find the ancient stones in Atlantis, and is only visiting the lost city to destroy it for his own gain. After discovering his evil plan, Milo, Kida, and the rest of the crew set their sights on reclaiming the lost city of Atlantis before the ancient civilization is wiped out.

A Cruise for the Whole Family

As much as I love the visuals and the lively conversation that is available in it Atlantis: The Lost EmpireOne thing that really bothered me was how quickly Milo changed from a scared wreck who can’t run down the Smithsonian corridor without tripping over his feet to an underwater hero with godlike timing. But since we’re talking about a movie about a kid with a broken neck and events, I’m willing to suspend some disbelief and watch a secret movie about ancient underwater people who are controlled by blue glowing crystals.

At the end of the day Atlantis: The Lost Empire is a cute, smart and family-friendly movie on Disney+ that will bring you the explorer.
