Critics Consensus

This Disney two-fer may not be the most reverent literary adaptation, but it's remarkably crafted and emotionally resonant.

TIME Magazine

An uneven doubleheader by Walt Disney, who has combined into one film two dissimilar literary classics.

New York Times

Mr. Disney, abetted by his staff, such perfect narrators as Bing Crosby and Basil Rathbone, and a pair of durable literary works, has fashioned a conclave of cartoon creatures, which... have the winsome qualities and charm of Mickey Mouse, Dumbo, et al.

Rated: 4/5

It is quite possible that The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad is the worst Disney film to date. Absolutely worthless, the film is not even an empty experience but rather an actively harmful one.

Just might be the definitive screen version of the classic literature, even though it's short, simple, and animated.

Rated: 7/10

I quite liked both of the stories but i watched them both while doing something else so didn't focus 100%. Interesting to learn about the society evolving through these old movies.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

For a movie dating back to the 1940's, this one has aged surprisingly well. Both shorts silly and charming. I would recommend this one.

By far the best movie to come out of this era of anthology films, this move combines the stories of Wind in the Willows and Sleepy Hollow. I did get a few laughs out of the tale of Mr. Toad, but the clear winner is Sleepy Hollow. That short is narrated and songs sung by Bing Crosby and I feel it is a must watch every Halloween. It also features the only villain in Disney canon to win, which gives it a uniqueness that gives it extra points for me. Two shorts I think everyone should see once.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
