VHS Movie Reviews of VeggieTales - Are You My Neighbor? [VHS]

Movie Review: Top-quality comedy for kids -- and the kid in every adult!
Summary: 5 Stars

When released, this Veggie Tales video was a fresh wind of creativity all parents and their kids will love. (I first saw this video as a single college student and loved it from the first.) Since other reviewers give you an idea about the story line, I will focus on the artistic aspects of this video, which contains two of the best episodes produced by Big Idea.

Dr. Seuss meets Jesus' parable of the Good Samaritan in the Story of Flibber-o-loo. Yes, it's weird, wonderfully weird. The pacing is perfect with humor at every turn. In the tradition of old Warner Brothers cartoons, countless slapstick moments that children love are punctuated with sublime humor that only parents will get, like barbs tossed at the political and medical establishment. The moral of the story is one every parent will approve -- the importance of overcoming prejudice to help those in need -- certainly something valuable in today's divisive society.

In a rare feat, the moral makes the story all the more hilarious rather than detracting from the fun. The message is straight from Jesus, presented in a non-religious, non-sectarian way that challenges everyone but threatens no-one. If only more artists and producers could find this sweet spot of non-offensive, even positive humor and hilarity....

The Gourds Must Be Crazy is a veggie Star Trek spoof (Captain Kirk and Scotty fans will enjoy the flashbacks) that extends the theme of dealing with others who are weird -- I mean different. Yes, the singing gourds are a bit crazy. But that's part of what makes this episode worth watching.

Speaking of crazy singing, the classic song "Where is My Hairbrush" (included as a bonus) is among the best musical works of all time. Since its release, this song has been covered by multiple rock bands, for two artistic reasons: it's a catchy tune that makes fine rock opera ... and it's chuckle-belly funny. You won't hate yourself when you can't get the song out of your head. I think you'll agree it's a song worth singing in the shower -- or even better, when you step out of the shower.

Summary of VeggieTales - Are You My Neighbor? [VHS]

Those lovable, googly-eyed vegetables are back with another 30-minute animated episode of fun-spirited morality. In The Story of Flibber-o-loo, Jr. Asparagus rises above his town's hatred of Flibbians to rescue a cucumber who's in a real pickle. The little guy's choice to love his neighbor ends a long history of trouble between the two towns. The Gourds Must Be Crazy teaches a second lesson about appreciating differences among each other. When the crew of the Starship Applepies faces impending doom, Jr. Asparagus is the only one willing to ask the newest crew members (a couple of ravenous, singing gourds) for help. As always, co-hosts Larry the Cucumber and Bob the Tomato smartly recap and apply the lesson to everyday life, complete with a quick Bible reference. If your family enjoys the wit and imagination found in Muppet movies or Sesame Street episodes, you'll find this musical group of Christian-lite vegetables inspiring and entertaining. --Liane Thomas
