A child is kidnapped by an evil poacher and the Rescue Aid
Society step in to help.
The golden eagle is terrifying, let’s not be daft here. She
doesn’t speak (unlike the rest of the animals?), she just squawks, she’s
horrifically massive and she has demon eyes. I’m pretty sure she’s evil in bird
form. But despite all that, the boy becomes friends with her and tries his best
to save her and her eggs even though he is in danger himself. He’s not alone
though, Miss Bianca (Eva Gabor) and Bernard (Bob Newhart) are on hand to help. I liked that Bernard
became more sure of himself as the film progressed and it led to him finally
being able to propose to Miss Bianca. They’re a sweet couple and they seem like
they’d have a really interesting life together.

I love both the Rescuers films.
ReplyDeleteThe first one was very dark compared to the second. Lots more silly comedy in the second. Like the mice in the old ambulance out in the desert and Frank(?) the frilly necked lizard thing and that egg stealing from the eggbox with Joanna. God, it's been years since I've watched it (but I must have watched it a hundred times up to then) and I remember so much about it, I love it.
