It is a kids movie. When kids movies were good.

The Magic comes from the love of familie you can Get so strong from love❤❤❤❤

泣かない人もいるんだね。 君はまだ若すぎる。

experiments on mouse and rat population dynamics at NIMH by John Calhoun inspired the other to write a book about rats from NIMH.

NIMH is a real place, NIMH is the largest research organization in the world specializing in mental illness.

Of course it's not a kid movie. I watched it as a kid but that doesn't mean it's specifically for kids.

I still tear up at some points on this movie

😮😮😢

I loved this film on the big screen at the age of four years old and loved it and still have fond memories of it. I even had a coloring book. But my childhood was different I guess.

23:12 You’re not alone. Even though I’ve seen this movie many times, and know it has a happy ending, this scene is the one that still terrifies me the most. Even more than Dragon and The Tractor.

I saw this movie when I was 5 on TV (in the 80s yes) and while it didn't traumatize me, it did make me cry. Another Don Bluth movie had the 'honor' of traumatizing my childhood though, it was Land Before Time. But yeah Don Bluth wanted to make 'darker' movies in Disney, but they didn't allow him and that's why he left with other Disney creators to make his own stuff. Yes I did ship Justin and Mrs. Brisby, but my 5 year-old mind for some reason kept forgetting the MC was a widow lol.

There's so many instances where people claim animated movies arent for kids, and yet there's still such a big stigma around animation. You'd be shocked by how many "kid" movies are actually incredibly mature with death and realistic themes/messages mixed into them. Movies like these are for EVERYONE Secret of NIMH is such a classic among many <3

Omg don't apologize for the movie on appropriateness sounds it's silly. Also it's not unusual to talk about drugs and the facts of research on animals in some cartoons then, kids were talked to as adults not talked down to or given sugarcoated info. It is based from kids novel.

I just found this in regards to an interview where Don Bluth was asked abouot the similarities between The Great Owl and Nicodemus. Though the book leans more towards the two entities being separate characters, Bluth wanted to go with a more fantasy route with the possiblity of Nicodemus' abilities, aswell as the concept of magic, or "the Unkown" : "According to one interview, Don Bluth said that the Owl is in fact Nicodemus, in another form, and that he gave the Owl the same glowing eyes and bushy eyebrows to indicate this. Bluth wanted the supernatural elements of the plot to be ideas that revealed themselves upon continued speculation, so apparently the vagueness of their presentation and lack of overt explanation regarding them were intentional choices. Your mileage may vary regarding how successful he was."

If more kids movies were like this, it would help prepare them for the harsh truths of the world like dealing with loss and being courageous during adversity. Instead children's movies now days is washed and cleansed to the point that they have no true meaning of what dark things are in the world and how to bravely stand up and overcome them.

tarantulas eat mice

There will be a sequel

Well his mother is from Texas and his father is from Mexico

Every time I think of this movie, I smile

💯 with the voice acting in this movies, they're generational

We watched this in my fifth grade class in the 80s.

Girl ur great. Ik ur not so much into RUclips anymore. Ur awesome. Thank u

Girl, I thought that was a love triangle too, even when I was a kid watchin'. It ain't made up. They gave us that on purpose.

I did watch this movie as a kid (older elementary or middle school I think,) and it did not traumatize me. Children are more resilient than adults give them credit for.

23:20 I like how we can see the stones glow off of your glasses

The times were better. Showing this to kids was a normal thing to do. The ongoing pussyfication of the western societies is strong in your remarks.

This movie is my childhood. I watched it so many times, and it's the reason I got into creative writing. I'm always thrilled to see new people experience it

Such a beautiful movie!

I loooved your reactions ahah, so cute!! Loved rewatching (kinda) with you ❤️

Great reaction! Keep going at it please! Unfortunately, the movie sound level was very low but managed by using headphones.

Rated 80s G

If you like this movie I would highly recommend the 1985 dark fantasy adventure movies by Disney *'The Black Cauldron"*

The Secret of NIMH was actually a a movie adaptation from the a children's science fiction fantas book from the early 1970s called "Mrs Frisby and the Rats from NIMH" by Robert C. O'Brien. NIMH stands for "National Institute of Mental Health" and the book was inspired by the NIMH and their study and research on rats and mice in the around the 1940s/50s-ish.

This movie is rated G and is a children's movie but I would say for children no younger than 10 maybe 8. You also got to look at it from my perspective. The children from my generation and before me was made differently. We wasn't no whinny babies that complain about things and got offended by things so easily. So movies and children's cartoons in general was made like this

I saw this is as a little kid. The hardest part for me was when that guard rat kept trying to kill Ms Brisby without even listening to her try to explain herself. For some reason that really rattled me, taught me that there are some parts of the world where nothing you say can save you…

i missed the 2nd art style of the animation now we see only 3d in movies and i missed it had an different flavor.

A lot of people wonder if the cake incident would really threaten trade negotiations between two countries. It is not the cake but the embarrassment caused to the Royal Family at a major event. Which is also the reason why Zahra freaked out when she caught them. If the cake debacle caused strain on the trade negotiations, they will probably declare war for violating their favorite prince 😂😂😂

You should check out avatar the last Airbender

I skipped over this movie when i was a kid because I thought it was another wishy-washy disney-esque movie. Wstched it this past weekend on advice from a friend. Genetically altered lab rats? This movie was awesome!

Don Bluth worked as a Disney animator; his trademark was absolutely magical lighting effects, and when he left Disney, he put all his skills into 'NIMH.' I grew up on my grandfather's farm, and every Spring I had to watch the wildlife running ahead of the tractor in terror. I mean, you kind of get used to it when you're rolling along six feet above the life-and-death race playing out at ground level. We took Grandpa with us when we went to the theatre to see this, and he was quieter afterwards than he normally was; it was clear that the scene had affected even him. And we're talking about a man who had four Sherman tanks shot out from under him on Iwo Jima. As for shipping, Justin was my second cartoon crush - Disney's Robin Hood was my first.

Taylor as Alex is so sexy!

Haha when you said you shipped Jeremy and Mrs Brisby I thought yeah, but you haven't met Justin yet.

Awesome! Subscribed

"Baby" line delivery knocked me out the first time I heard it too. (Especially if you read the book!)

To your question about them not moving out of the way of the cake: it happened faster than the camera shows. They wouldn't have had enough time, I think.

Your reaction to "baby" was funny. Btw, your adorable cat stole part of the show at around 28:08.

'Baby' killed me, too! Henry's emotional expression in reaction to that grabbed my heart❤️ And your kitten🥰

Surprisingly, Nicodemus' voice actor is one of the few still alive from this. He was hilarious as Ian McKellen's partner in Vicious and they also had him in one of the recentish Poirot movies with Kenneth Branagh. My parents loved him in I Claudius. But yes, anytime I see Derek Jacobi in anything it makes me happy

Don Bluth was actually very disappointed this movie still landed a G rating. He intended to land a PG rating to differentiate it from Disney's stuff at the time but the lazy MPAA people just saw cute animated Disney-like mice and still slapped a G on it. That obviously wouldn't happen today with what can now get a PG rating. And as someone who had this VHS tape at a very young age, yes, it was very memorable

I hope your move went smoothly! Two underrated animated films of the 1990s: The Iron Giant (1999) and Cat's Don't Dance (1997). From the 1980s: Rock & Rule (1983) and Ralph Bakshi's Fire and Ice (1983).
