From Amazon.com: This charming movie version of the Nickelodeon cartoon centers on Eliza, youngest daughter of the Thornberry family, whose parents Nigel and Marianne travel the world to create a nature program for television. But Eliza, thanks to a mystical encounter, has the power to talk to animals--a power that leads her on the hunt for poachers in Africa who have captured a baby cheetah. Eliza's best friend, a chimpanzee named Darwin, is along for the ride, while her resentful teenage sister Debbie is trying to bring her back to their parents. The characters in The Wild Thornberrys Movie are well-defined and delightful, the well-written script zips along, and the animation is visually dynamic; all in all, an excellent animated feature. Featuring the voices of Tim Curry, Lacey Chabert, Rupert Everett, Marisa Tomei, Alfre Woodard, and Lynn Redgrave. --Bret Fetzer
Great movie, but no suprises.: I recently purchased this movie on Pay-Per-View, and it was pretty good. The only thing I didn't like was how you could see what was going to happen next. A good movie for kids.
Great movie for children: This movie is great for kids. My uncle starred as Darwin the monkey. Take it from me, your kids will love this movie. Its full of suprises and fun.
Great Family Flick.: THE WILD THORNBERRY'S MOVIE is a great animated film that the whole family will enjoy. The script is well-written and includes a couple of surprises. The music is rocking and one of the songs that Paul Simon wrote for the picture was nominated for an Academy Award. There really isn't anything very scary in the film and even if you've never seen an episode of the television show, the movie is easy to follow and enjoy. Great family entertainment.
Buy it for the title track!: Sweet film. My kids loved it, my 5 year old hasn't stopped talking about the baboon's pink bottom 2 weeks and counting after! But for all u music fiends and especially all u Paul Simon fans. Buy this DVD for the title track, which is performed end to end by the MAN himself, as an extra on the DVD. A stunningly simple and yet so brilliant Paul Simon tune about a father's love for his daughter, that I am now single mindedly practicing on the guitar, to be able to sing to my lil girl on Christmas Eve! Enjoy!
A few words can explain this show.: this show sucks. hate it. should be on discovery channel. but discovery channel would reject this elephant turd of a show.
