VHS Movie Reviews of The Mouse and the Motorcycle [VHS]

Movie Review: Wonderful adaptation!
Summary: 5 Stars

An excellent adaptation of Beverly Cleary's book. It is completely magical for children - it is not animated, which makes it seem real to little ones! It was one of my favorites growing up. As a teacher, I would highly recommend watching it after completing a study/read-aloud of this book. A wonderful, family-friendly movie!

Summary of The Mouse and the Motorcycle [VHS]

Bored, bored, bored. That's how young Keith feels about being stranded at the time-worn Mountain View Inn with his parents. Then he meets Ralph, an equally stir-crazy mouse who quickly befriends Keith and begs to ride Keith's toy motorcycle. Soon Ralph masters the tiny two-wheeler and "rrroom-zzzooms" through the hotel hallways, dodging four-legged predators, adults, and the occasional vacuum; he even risks his furry skin to help Keith recover from a high fever. Based on Beverly Cleary's famous children's novel of the same name, this 42-minute video combines live-action talent (including Ray Walston as the wise bellhop) and award-winning stop-motion animation. While the dated look of the TV movie may not appeal to kids who prefer the heart-pumping action of computer-generated favorites such as Small Soldiers, its tame plot and relatively slow pace make The Mouse and the Motorcycle a healthy choice for families with 3- to 7-year-olds. Followed by an even popular sequel, Runaway Ralph. --Liane Thomas
