Arrogant young Emperor Kuzco is transformed into a llama by his power hungry advisor--the devious diva Yzma. Stranded in the jungle, Kuzco's only chance to get back home and reclaim the high life rests with a goodhearted peasant named Pacha. Kuzco's perfect world becomes a perfect mess as this most unlikely duo must deal with hair-raising dangers, wild predicaments and--most horrifying of all--eac Review: Riiiiight! Kuzco's movie! - Boo-Ya! Boom, Baby! Love,love,love this film! Review: Boom Baby! - The Emperors New Groove: A Disney movie quite unlike any other traditionally animated Disney movie you've ever seen, I really hope that one day The Emperor's New Groove starts to receive the love it deserves. With a rather strange, yet still strangely beautiful, style and no big musical numbers save one from the "theme guy" this feels more like a Pixar film mixed with some Loony Tunes which is no bad thing. The story revolves around the selfish Emperor Kuzco (voiced in a wonderfully amusing whiny manner by David Spade), a happy-go-lucky, carefree chap unphased by anything until he is turned into a llama by the adviser he fired (Yzma, voiced by Eartha Kitt). Once he realises the situation he has to enlist the help of Pacha (John Goodman) to get him back to his palace and make things right. Unfortunately, Pacha is one person who is in no hurry to see the emperor return thanks to Kuzco's selfish plans for Pacha's village that will lead to major upset and upheaval. Sounding a bit off the wall? You have no idea. This movie does it all. There are a succession of great verbal and visual gags, a number of lesser characters given moments to shine (including Pacha's family, a chatty squirrel and, of course, Yzma's assistant Kronk who is voiced by the excellent Patrick Warburton) and a constant sense of barely restrained anarchy. The fourth wall is broken, voiceovers are interrupted and even camera moves are criticised when things stray too far from the focus of the proceedings. All in all, it's fantastic fun. Kronk's New Groove: First of all, let me just say that Kronk's New Groove is very, very funny with a good amount of laugh out loud moments. Surely that is all that matters then, eh? Well, no. Compared to the first film, the story is pretty tepid. All of the previous characters return. Of course there is Kronk himself, along with Kuzco, Pacha and his family, the babbling squirrel and Yzma (who has now turned mostly back into a 'human' but still features a cat's tail and feline abilities. The movie tries to incorporate all of them into the story but nothing really sticks. It all just seems like an excuse for mayhem. As before, it is told in flashback with Kronk explaining how he ended up in such sorry circumstances. His dad is coming to visit him and he's afraid of the inevitable disapproval he'll get as all he's managed to do with his life is be a Junior Chipmunk Troup Leader and run a restaurant kitchen. His dad thinks that cooking and talking to animals isn't a 'real job' and won't give Kronk the big thumbs up until he's got his own house on a hill with loads of money. From this thin idea comes loads of deception, scheming and hijinks. And that's basically the movie. It IS packed full of hilarious moments and wonderful Looney Tunes-inspired humor like the first, but it just lacks that overall high-quality. Still, it's loads of fun and any fan of The Emperor's New Groove must give it a chance.

Awesome movie!
This movie is so underrated. Imagine a Disney movie with functional relationships, comically flawed villains, and a soundtrack that is delightful but isn’t overbearing. The punch lines in this film had me laughing out loud, and my kids liked it, too. The product arrived in new condition, and it worked in US blu-ray player without problem.

Very enjoyable and entertaining movie set. Both The Emperors New Groove & Kronk’s New Groove are comedy classics of the early 2000s that is fun and makes the family laugh. Animation, music, and the special features are all right. David Spade & John Goodman lead an excellent voice cast. Love the theme that a selfish emperor learned to care about others other than himself thanks to the influence of good people and true friends.

La película llegó a tiempo y en buen estado. Las películas son de mis favoritas, muy divertidas con grandiosos personajes, no me canso de ver las aventuras de Kusco y Pacha.

Nice and fun movies for a great price. Better buy this US import as the UK versions costs twice if you buy them here separately. Also the US version comes with a beautiful slip-case.
