Es gibt ja wenige Disney-Filme mit denen ich wenig anfangen kann. Und dabei ist es egal ob Kurz- oder Langfilm. Lorenzo ist einer dieser wenigen Filme. Der tänzerische „Kampf“ von Lorenzo mit seinem Schwanz und der experimentelle Animationsstil haben mich leider so gar nicht abgeholt, wenngleich ich anerkennen muss, dass die Filmidee durchaus gelungen ist.
