While a bit dated, this flick delighted both my kids (and, yes, me) while visiting my mom recently. My children are 18mo and nearly 4 and the older child has a hard time with the "scary" parts of Nemo, Cars, etc. We don't even touch the actual Disney films (think of the witch/octo in Mermaid, etc. Saw it at her other grandmas and had nightmares for weeks. yuck). This film was quite fun and the cameo of muppeteers at the end was great (hi mr, henson!). Just got us the DVD for our house. A really nice little truly G rated movie.
This was my almost 23 year old son's favorite movie when he was young! And he is the one who wanted me to order it for my great nephew to watch. Now don't tell, but he wanted to watch it again too!) This movie is fun and educational. It has the most wonderful music and bright colors to really keep you child's attention. It teaches the true value of friends and close relationships. Along with counting, colors, shapes and names of animals. You can't go wrong with this great movie, it is for any kid from 1 - 92 years of age.
I bid on this product because it was my FAVORITE movie of all time!!! I watched it all the time when i was younger, because I had it on VHS...of course, with time, the quality of VHS goes downhill, so i was excited to see it on DVD. The price was great- cheaper than I would pay in a store (IF it could be found in a store) and the quality is good. The disc skips every so often, but I believe it is due to me viewing it on my laptop. The movie itself is wonderful.. as with all muppet productions, it is very humorous (to children as well as adults) and has a good message.
As a kid, I was allowed only an hour of television a day and whenever Sesame Street came on, my parents' would turn up the volume so I could hear "Sunny days..." in the next room and come tearing down the hall to not miss another second. Big Bird was my absolute favorite and this was the number one movie I wore out in the VCR. Owning this movie again is such a nice nostalgic trip. It's a lovely little movie for children and adults alike. Thank you, Jim Henson.
This movie was fantastic when I was a child, and my kids just love it as well! The cameo performances of John Candy, Chevy Case, Merle Haggard (just to name a few) are quite entertaining. My three year old has become addicted to the film and loves the story line. The movie also has a great moral about cultural diversity. I'd recommend it to everyone!
