my kids love this movie
My first-grader AND my fifth-grader both love this movie. They tend to wake up at the crack of dawn, and this has been on the 6am rotation for some time now. They laugh and laugh, and they espeically love the music sequences (the music on here is first-rate, and the visuals are colorful and engaging). My son's favorite music scene is the opening credits! This is a great DVD--something grownups can also enjoy while the kids laugh it up.
Great sequel to the Rankin/Bass Easter Classic
As a Rankin/Bass fan, I always go into these new remake/computer animated/sequel things expecting to hate them. But I loved this one! There are a lot of nice little touches that tie it into not only the original "Here Come Peter Cottontail", but also several other R/B classics. Many of the characters from the original return including Peter, Antoine, Irontail, Elroy and others. The scenery is stunning and the animation is top-notch, but the songs really steal the show. Everytime there is a song, they present in in a trippy music-video style which is just really fun. The whole thing is just very well done, especially for a direct-to-DVD movie - much better than most of the garbage that's shoveled onto us at the theaters. It's very rare that I add a new film into my roster of holiday specials but this one is definately here to stay! Oh yeah, did I mention that the kids liked it too?
Bring On Spring!
This movie rocks...My little nephew is easy to babysit for now I have this movie. It is my secret weapon. The music is awesome, and the animation is so lively, I find myself watching it too. Can't wait for the sequel!
