Cant remember the name of the movie but loved it when I was a kid.

Older animated movie. Story was about mice on a farm and they had to move their home to get away from the farmer's harvest. There were "good mice" and "bad mice." I remember they had to seek the advice of a great old owl and there was also a farm cat.

Anyone remember this movie and the name? TIA

No prob I watched it with my siblings as a little bastard and liked it. Brutus was the bad rat. I forgot the wise Owl’s name.

I watched it as an adult some 15 years ago and still loved the movie and hopefully I can find it OnDemand, Netflix or Amazon.

I loved that movie and the books when I was a kid. Can't wait for my boys to get old enough to show it to them

No name. Just "The Great Owl".

The wise old rat was Nicodemus.

Watched it on Prime after reading this thread.

Pretty heavy stuff for a kids movie. Mixture of dark fantasy and scifi. Surprised I never heard of it growing up; this would have been about the right time for me.

I'm convinced the sword fight scene w/ Nichodemis and the bad rat was the inspiration and basis for the Ani/obi Wan fight in Revenge of the Sith. Down to some of the dialogue.
