Song of the South Reviews

this movie just glorifies slavery and says how it wasn’t a big deal like what the fuck?? this movie is incredibly racist i’m glad splash mountain is leaving so tina can get a ride

It was made during a different time and it reflects that. Glad it’s not in circulation. But all the 💜 ratings. Just shows how amerikkka hasn’t changed.

i liked this movie so much and would even more if i were younger. its so cute and silly. a few bad things but they can be ignored

5.5/10

I mean… one of the most famous racist movies of all time is in fact racist. Ohhhhh but what good song Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah is though… right?

definitely one of the hardest to find Disney movies now. not for any political reason but I actually find this movie really boring and always have. i like the old guy though

One of my earliest memories, like literally as a baby. I specifically remember the scene where the little girl gets pushed down and starts crying, that literally altered the course of my life

I liked it. It has the old Disney charm and the animation was cute. I certainly preferred the critter arc the most, and obviously they made it seem likes slaves lived pleasant lives. but certainly not worth getting retconned. I’m glad Disney put a disclaimer and kept it.

Racist

The only reason I’m not giving it a thumbs down is because the animation parts were cute

I wanted to rewatch this film to see if my opinion had change since my last viewing. There is honestly quite a lot to say even with the amount of controversy that surrounds it.

This film is honestly remarkable for its time. The process committed to combine live action and animation is glorious. Especially for it’s release in 1946. James Baskett performance as Uncle Remus is wonderful. It always gives me inspiration from how wholesome he is.

I’m honestly glad for this day and age, the music is still appreciated to a great extent. There is such a cheery nature that comes off from each line which gives each person a way to find their happy place. Old Disney really knew how to bring out a wonderful time with its heartwarming moments

I know it is a controversial movie, but my family & I grew up singing “Zip-a-Dee-doo-dah” & watching this on VHS at my grandparents’ house. &, despite the controversy, there is a very important lesson about “looking past your pride and recognizing the wisdom of children” here

It’s interesting for the time but I don’t feel right with how non white characters are portrayed and treated

3.5/5

watched it cause disney banned it, boring asf tbh i would ban that shit too 😭🙏

I want Disney make a 4K steel book of it

Who is a cute little movie, I know it was controversial, but I feel like with that aside it was nice

As a kid I loved the zip a Dee doo dah sing a long tape I had and splash mountain is one of my fave rides. You can buy this movie on dvd on Amazon.

This is very controversial for sure! I’ve actually seen it and I enjoyed it as a retelling of the old Uncle Remus stories…beyond that, it’s pretty rough to watch. Grab a book version of Uncle Remus’ tales and you’ll be much better off than subjecting yourself to this movie.
