RESCUE RANGERS TO THE RESCUE (1989)
When Detective Drake and his canine partner Plato are framed for a crime they didn't commit, it's up to the Rescue Rangers to capture the real bad guys and clear Drake and Plato's name. The premise for the series is outlined in this TV movie. Chip n Dale and their colleagues Gadget, Monterey Jack and Zipper operate as the last line of defense against those who dare to harm the city. As the theme song states, no case is too big and no case is too small. They're vigilantes that do what must be done. Here they go up against mob boss Klordane, his feline partner Fat Cat and mad scientist Professor Nimnul. Their scheme is to rob the city's gold depository while the police are busy dealing with Drake and Plato. The animation, by Disney's Japanese studio, rival's that of the feature film department. The voice acting is great. And the music is decent. Only flaw is that it gets stale after a while. Unlike Ducktales' Treasure of the Golden Sun which had energy from beginning to end, the story here was stretched too thin. It would have worked best as a 2-part episode instead of the 90+ minute running time.
