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.
The last of Disney's six 1940s-era package movies, this 1949 release is comprised of two segments: one adapting the classic novel The Wind in the Willows, the other Washington Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, with narration coming from Basil Rathbone and Bing Crosby. Despite the quality of the source material, the film itself is not highly regarded, though it did lead to one of Disney's best-known theme park attractions, Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. For the last few decades, the two segments have mostly been distributed as separate films. Disney would not make another animated anthology film until 1977's The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh.
