A Tale of Two Critters
A bear cub and a raccoon become fast friends when they're swept away down a river, away from their families.

Even at just 48 minutes, 'A Tale of Two Critters' is an utter bore.
There is nothing original or interesting about this film, it's something Disney have done numerous times before - it's 1961's 'Nikki, Wild Dog of the North' mixed with 1969's 'Rascal'. The amount of bear cubs in this studio's work is quite something!
Like that '61 production, and releases like 'The Legend of Lobo' and 'King of the Grizzlies' for that matter, this is very bad. There is nothing to latch onto and enjoy, it's just a number of different animals thrown (almost literally) together for a would-be documentary.
Mayf Nutter does an alright job as narrator, but is barely any different to the narrators from other similar productions. Like most, if not all, of Disney's nature/documentary/adventure films, this isn't worth a watch - at least in my opinion.
