Watership Down was very enjoyable. After every problem has been solved another situation started so it was full of supris’es
but it was quite upsetting but enjoyable.

This film is very sad in crying terms because even though it is animated, when a rabbit dies or is killed or even wounded, it is so real you feel like it’s real life. This can teach us a lot about life in this world, both nice and nasty. But in the end it was fine. By Stacey Johnson
