Every Disney Animated Film, Ranked Worst to Best
Updated November 2022 to add Strange World
The king of all animation houses, Walt Disney Animation Studios has been releasing feature films for over 80 years. Many of those films are all-time classics of the genre, though some have failed to impress reviewers. In the gallery above, we rank every one of Disney's animated features by Metascore from worst-reviewed to best.
To keep things manageable, films from subsidiaries/related studios are excluded—these are only Walt Disney Animation productions—though you can find films from Disney's Pixar label in a separate gallery. We are also excluding mostly live-action films that also include some animation (Song of the South, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, etc.) as well as Disney's many direct-to-video sequels produced by its Disneytoon subsidiary.
Note that one official Disney animated film (1977 anthology The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh) does not have enough reviews available to calculate a Metascore.
Released in 1946, the Nelson Eddy-narrated Music is an anthology film containing ten unrelated animated shorts (some featuring a bit of live action) set to music. If that sounds a bit like Fantasia, it's not entirely dissimilar, though it features jazz rather than classical music and lacks the high-budget production values (and the high-scoring reviews). Though it is tied for the lowest Metascore among Disney's six 1940s-era "package" films, it seems to be ever so slightly better liked today than the similar (though higher scoring) Melody Time, released two years later and often cited now as the worst of the six films.
