Summary: FUN
Comment: This was my youngest son's favorite movie for the Thanksgiving holiday and he still loves it as an adult. We all love Dick Van Dyke and he was superb in this one and especially when he and Sally Ann Howe do the puppet/doll song... It's wonderful and fun for any time you want to smile.

Summary: Clunky Clunky Boom Boom
Comment: Unlike many one starred reviews, it was not the picture quality that I hated. IT WAS THE MOVIE ITSELF! Points being.
1. The romance between Truly and Caractus *whatever his name is* has no chemistry to it, it feels forced, and no offense but he *Carac- Dick Van Dyke* had about as much sex appeal as that "Ernest goes to where ever guy*
2. Plot holes: We never know quite why the Baroness hates children or why her husband is always trying to kill her
3. The Grandfather disappears from the time he's kidnapped till the time he's rescued. How did he escape, what was he doing in that room with all those old men for all that time?
4. The child catcher: Creepy [...] pedophile looking guy that if I was a kid watching this movie I would probably get nightmares. A Notable scene is where he leers down into the basement grateing "Lolliiipops.....Caandyyy". If those kids were stupid enough to believe this creep than maybe they deserved to be kidnapped.
****This Cars' a lemon avoid this movie, Watch Mary Poppins instead or Pete's Dragon.

Summary: Ignore all the one star reviews based on format.
Comment: This is a great movie classic. Ignore the stupid one star reviews based on format. If you like full screen then buy full screen. If you like widescreen they buy widescreen. Why are they buying something that they know will disappoint them and then give a one star review. This only hurts the movie that they claim they all love!!
Customer Rating:
Summary: A classic
Comment: Who cannot add classics to their movie collections? We grew up watching this movie every year. The Child Catcher is pretty scary, almost as scary as the Witch on the Wizard of Oz! And yes, I have that movie too!
