1. I think the British have a problem with the 'Americanisation' of films. Braveheart. The Patriot. U571. The Italian Job(!).

2. "Trust the Frenchies to tack on the overly sentimental narration" is just as likely were they to review the French version.

And of course, we conveniently forget Johnny Morris & "Animal Magic". :)

The real genius bit of re-narration was The Magic Roundabout, with Brian Thompson neither knowing or caring what the original script was.

Quite.

Of course, if the film is aimed at an overly sentimental market, it's entirely legitimate to stick some overly sentimental narration in there. Does anyone think these things are really still for educational purposes rather than making money?

Also, don't expect a critic to like anything. That's not their job.
