From The Novel That Enthralled The World Comes An Animation Classic.
A timeless classic comes alive in this enchanting movie based on the best-selling novel by Richard Adams. A delightful film for audiences of all ages, Leonard Maltin calls it "one of the best... animated features ever made!"
Nestled among the rolling hills and peaceful meadows of England lives a community of rabbits. When their warren is threatened, a small group of brave rabbits escapes into the unknown countryside in search of a new home. Led by the visionary Fiver, the courageous Bigwig, the clever Blackberry, and the Honorable Hazel, they face daunting challenges, and use their strength and cunning to survive, while pursuing their dream. Along their trek, they make an unlikely friend - a loony seagull named Kehaar - and battle the vicious General Woundwort, the cruel leader of another warren.
Film Director, Martin Rosen, frames the tale largely at the eyepoint of the rabbits, so that we identify with each one. Packed with excitement and adventure, Watership Down is an engaging, thrilling tale that celebrates traditional values of loyalty, courage, and spirit.

Great film for seven years and older - 3.5 out of 5 (6/7/2002)
This is a beautiful film version of a classic book. The tale of a small band of rabbits and their struggle for survival against man, predator animals, and other rival rabbit warrens is appealing to kids of at least age seven due to some scary moments and the death of some of the rabbits. Fine British actors such as John Hurt lend their voices to the film and give character to the individual rabbits. The story is never boring, full of fights and flights, and themes such as the importance of us
