1	Awesome moments in ''WesternAnimation/AnAmericanTail''.
2	----
3
4	* The scene where Tony uses his slingshot to expose Warren T. Rat as a cat. He chose to believe Fievel's claim that Warren was actually a cat and was not afraid to face any consequences if Fievel was wrong.
5	** The fact that he was able to knock off his disguise ''in one shot from a distance'' is also worth mentioning. He definitely has impressive aim.
6	* Cossack cats are running a pogrom against the mice in their hometown. Everyone runs and hides from the danger. Fievel? Pick up bits and bobs he can use and runs out to scare the cats away. Parental concerns for his father, but Fievel had the heart and courage of the Mouse of Minsk already at his age.
7	* The Giant Mouse of Minsk, in all its horrifying rotoscoped glory, is a rolling moment of awesome for the downtrodden immigrant mice.
8	** While the Giant Mouse was stuck, the mice futilely try to cut the ropes to release it, but fail. Through quick thinking, Fievel manages to burn through the ropes with a stick on fire.
9	** The monster was partially a home-built ''tank'', firing off fireworks "artillery" and heavily armored, and most of the immigrants who built and piloted it were ''Russian''.
10	** It also, because many of the immigrants were Jewish and fleeing the Cossack pogroms of Tsarist Russia, was their equivalent of Golem of Prague.
11	** Combine all that and you get an utter, humiliating CurbStompBattle of the cat gang. For these poor immigrant mice, the entire battle is their finest moment.
12	** Serious kudos not just to Fievel for coming up with the idea and having the guts to barge into Gussie Mausheimer's spotlight, but also to Gussie and Honest John for listening to him. This is a newly arrived small child suggesting something out of a bedtime story, and yet the adults take his idea completely seriously, pull it off, and give him credit! And we're talking about a rich lady and a sketchy, sloshed politician!
13	* The film's last scene shows off the completed Art/StatueOfLiberty, beautifully rendered, animated, and ''painted'' in gold.
