VHS Movie Reviews of Fun and Fancy Free (Fully Restored 50th Anniversary Limited Edition) (Walt Disney's Masterpiece) [VHS]Movie Review: PARENTS: This is THE movie to have on hand. Summary: 5 StarsWhenever i have to put on a movie for the kids at church or at my school this is my first instinct. It CANNOT offend anyone. The voice of Dinah Shore is amazing and timeless. The kids love it. Its so pure, its so enticing. This is what we want our children to watch. The kids at my school ages 3-5 are glued to it. The parents of those 3-5 year olds are always pleased. And I never get sick of listening to her beautiful narration.
Movie Review: Not one of Disney's Finest.... Summary: 2 StarsI watched this DVD with a younger family member recently and found the first story "Bongo" way too long and such a product of the 1940's to be only of historical interest. The second story "Micky and the Beanstalk" is better though I admit I found famed ventriloquist, Edgar Bergen's, two puppets a little, er, unsettling. If you are intent on viewing or owning every Disney animated classic ever made go ahead and choose this but the average viewer is not missing much in skipping this one.
Movie Review: Excellent Product Summary: 5 StarsProduct was in perfect condition. My kids and I love it. It brings back a lot of fun memories.
Movie Review: Fun and Fancy Free Summary: 4 StarsMy son loves this DVD very much. He is only 2, I don't think he understands the whole stories, but he loves those characters.
Movie Review: Classic and charming DVD Summary: 4 StarsWhen I ordered this I didn't exactly know what I was getting. I knew it had the classic "Mickey and the Beanstalk" that I had loved as a child, but I didn't know it was the edited version narrated by Edgar Bergen. I also didn't know about the other short feature "Bongo", narrated by Dinah Shore.
I admit I was a little put off at first, but this quickly became one of our very favorite movies. "Mickey and the Beanstalk" is presented as a story told by Edgar Bergen at Luana's birthday party with many silly interuptions by Charlie McCarthy and Mortimer Snerd. Jiminy Cricket chimes in occasionally too. On a child enjoyment level the character interaction at the party is excellent and really entertains children. The actual cartoon has really withstood the test of time. My daughter adores Mickey Mouse and she gets absorbed in the exploits of Mickey, Donald and Goofy as they take on the giant to rescue the magic harp. The giant is a particularly charming character. For adults this is like owning a little piece of cinematic history. You have the classic cartoon with classic characters as well as Edgar Bergen and his two famous "friends" Charlie and Mortimer. I take off one star because we don't love the Bongo cartoon.
