This movie is a beloved children's classic, but it is much better remembered than re-watched. I watched it with my kids this past weekend & I had never realized how whiny Wilbur sounds!
Having said that, it is still a very good movie for children with nice themes about friendship and innocent fun. I've always loved Templeton's "A Fair is a Veritable Smorgasbord" song (if you can get over the fact it's a rat singing about eating garbage!) I had forgotten how many of the songs I knew the words to. Again, this one's only fun if you watch it with kids, but it's worth having your kids watch it.
