I saw this film for the first time after a friend who had seen it in the theater in 1978 recommended it. I was prepared to ogle a children’s movie and was struck by the seriousness of the subject and the realistic scenes.
The film begins with the mythology of the rabbit which is rather unfamiliar but in a cute blueprint. This introduction foreshadows the hardships and enemies the rabbit species will face. From there the legend seems to touch on at least two issues: fascism/Marxism and environmentalism. The latter is only briefly touched on. The puny rabbit Fiver, who has unexplained powers to foresee the future, urges a group of fellow rabbits in his “warren” to leave before their land is destroyed by some destructive force. Actually, it is man who tears up their fields, but it is only described briefly by a survivor. In their hurry to the grand mountain top (utopia? ), they encounter several enemies and a comical bird friend (my approved of the characters) . Once they advance their destination, they realize that they have no females in their group (the only “doe” having been killed) and must return to perilous territory to collect mates. Their worst enemy, ironically, is a member of their believe species; a fascist rabbit who threatens to have any dissenter from his warren killed. Also, ironically, inventions of man (i.e. a boat) are venerable by the rabbits in their struggle to survive. A musical segment with music sung by Art Garfunkel interrupts the fairly fast-moving myth.
The violence in this film is surprisingly realistic and graphic. Some rabbits do not construct it, so very young children may need to be prepared before watching. I also looked at a VHS copy of this film, and DVD is far righteous in terms of graphics and color. The extras on this DVD were a diminutive disappointing considering that this film is a classic (i.e. a glossary of rabbit words that is not even complete) . Composed, this intelligent film is one that adults may savor more than the kids.
Like many of the reviewers before me I first watched this serve when I was a child and yes it did provoke a range of emotions in me. I cheered when they escaped on the boat; I was sickened in the report of the fate of the first warren. I admit it 15 years on I aloof scream at the raze of the movie. Don’t be fooled into thinking objective because it’s and intriguing feature about rabbits that this film will be friendly for younger kids, it is NOT. Watership down has quite graphic representations of brutality and death. Putting those facts aside it does snort a compelling fable about a band of refugees looking for some status to resettle and live their lives out in peace. It honest happens that the refugees are rabbits.

This is a chronicle of survival. It is a ancient legend told in a accomplish hold plan. It is told with an edge of realism that contradicts the candy coating of the animation and character species. I unprejudiced bought a copy of this so my wife and I could behold it. Melanie (My wife) having not seen it before and not lustrous what to request was left speechless when Violet was gone. If I were to rate the film I would give it at least a PG maybe even a PG 13 for its possible NIGHTMARES for younger children. I give the sage 4 stars for being tantalizing and well told
