* SoBadItsGood: Where to start? The RandomEventsPlot filled with WackyWaysideCritters? The very loud musical score? The fact that the animals seem to have not so much been trained to act as placed on the sets and filmed doing whatever they feel like until something close enough to what's in the script happens? The fact that it was re-dubbed in America despite being made in Australia? Here's the kicker: It came free in a box of cereal. And yet, there is something about it that draws attention: The main villain is an AxCrazy female cat who is insane enough to imagine every animal she encounters as a mouse she needs to kill and chases Napoleon in all TheHerosJourney. The owl describes the cat as Napoleon’s EvilCounterpart: a domesticated pet who escaped to the wilderness, learned how to kill, and didn’t know when to stop. A decent development, until you realize that out of all domesticated animal species, cats are the most accustomed to killing, which makes the villain's descent into madness redundant.

* HilariousInHindsight: This wouldn't be [[Film/TheRealMacaw the last film]] where Jamie Croft spends most of it traveling with and befriending a talking bird. The two even had the same director.
