if you're a fan of Westerns, if not one might feel bored throughout it. The heroines must save their farm because the owner is about to lose it, so they go after an outlaw to get the money and the protagonist Maggie wants revenge because of a previous encounter with him. It's plot is not the most original but it doesn't matter much considering this is meant to be a parody on Western films. The rest of the cast does a pretty good job and will not tire the older audience out. Randy Quaid performs well as the film's antagonist Alameda Slim, who acts like a stereotypical evil cowboy, which was of course the intention. who is pretty funny, but comes off as a talkative version of other silent horses in animated films that were meant to be humorous. Racing against the heroines to capture the bad guy is Buck, a stallion voiced by Cuba Gooding Jr. Calloway and Grace respectively) that come along with Maggie on her quest to save their farm, they work pretty well and never annoy or agitate the audience. Judi Dench and Jennifer Tilly voice the two cows (Mrs. Roseanne Barr plays a cow named Maggie, she has some fun moments that are humorous and works well enough as a protagonist for the audience to care for her. The songs are decent as well and won't annoy anyone, but it isn't anything special and won't stay in mind long. This film provides a score that isn't too bad, and will make one feel like they're watching a Western for kids. This film provides animation that could best be described as quite possibly the best Disney straight to video animation, only it was theatrical. The film does provide some nice coloring, and the movement isn't to bad but it's minor successes are badly over shadowed.
The film's cg does not mesh well and with the amount used it's fairly noticeable that Disney already wanted to leave traditional animation behind.
The character designs are not the worst, but they have a flat look to them that only gets worse because the cg around them makes them look even more flat. When compared to previous studio outings, "Home on the Range" really lacks in terms of animation.
