The wider canvas and extra detail work reportedly meant an additional 30% in negative cost. It was a sound investment.

Disney's imagination seems at a low ebb, saddled with a shrunken, excessively naturalistic style in line with the diminished possibilities of postwar animation, and not yet graced by the inspiration that would redeem that style in Sleeping Beauty.
Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader
Fresh
Happily the cameo lowlife, an excellent manic beaver, the famously villainous Siamese, and classic songs rescue the film from dumb animal sentiment.
Geoff Andrew, Time Out
Rotten
The sentimentality is mighty, and the use of the CinemaScope size does not make for any less awareness of the thickness of the goo.
Bosley Crowther, New York Times
Rotten
Walt Disney has for so long parlayed gooey sentiment and stark horror into profitable cartoons that most moviegoers are apt to be more surprised than disappointed to discover that the combination somehow does not work this time.
