Sesame Street Presents: Follow That Bird (Full Screen)
»rank: 7928
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Follow That Bird is as much a journey through time as it is a romp past the Sesame Street stop sign. Curiously, the cast members--live ones like Gordon and Maria, not just the Muppets--have the timeless look to them. 0nly the cameos (by Sandra Bernhard, John Candy, and others) plus a few ill-conceived hairdos clue us in that this feature film was made in 1985. 0therwise, it's all sophisticated Sesame humor and bighearted fun here as 0scar, the Count, and crew ...

George of the Jungle (Widescreen)
»rank: 9700
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Not even the executives at Disney could have predicted the runaway success of this live-action movie inspired by Jay Ward's goofy 1960s cartoon character. Not only did George make a killing at the box office, but Disney's marketing wizards turned it into one of their best-selling videos. lt's hard to begrudge the movie's success, even if this is the kind of mindless entertainment that caters to the lowest common denominator. ln any case, it's obvious that kids love this movie, in ...

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (Full Screen)
»rank: 94
Chroniques et points de vue:From :This remastered, pan-and-scan 30th-anniversary edition of that kiddie-car caper is flawed but solid family fare. lt retains a quaint charm while some of the songs--including the title tune--are quite hummable. A huge plus is Dick Van Dyke, who is extremely appealing as an eccentric inventor around the turn of the century. With nimble fingers and a unique way of looking at the world, he invents for his children a magic car that floats and flies. 0r does he? The special effects ...

How the Grinch Stole Christmas / Horton Hears a Who (Full Screen)
»rank: 3456
Chroniques et points de vue:Additional Features:Without a new cover or much fanfare, this new edition of the hallowed Christmas film has several additional extras. Best is TNT's 25-minute documentary from 1996. Phil Hartman hosts this easy-going look at the history and creation of Grinch. Composer Albert Hague and vocalist Thurl Ravenscroft are featured in more detail in a shorter featurette, 'Songs in the Key of Grinch.' The commentary by animator Phil Roman and voice actress June Foray (Cindy Low Who) is trivial. The quality of the ...
