A slightly flawed NEW HALLOWEEN CLASSIC!
Since Halloween is my fovorite Holiday, I could not resist buying this DVD for me, and my kids. I had not previously seen this made-for-TV special, but found it for such a reasonable price, I took the plunge. In hindsight, a good move. Here is a list of my thoughts as they spill from my gooey BRAIN!!...
-Why 4 stars? The CGI is a little crude (when compared to other TV CGI productions). I'm being a little picky, but I found it a distraction to see ocassional surfaces protrude through things unintentionally (Head through hare) and unatural motion for human characters (a bit "floaty").
-The story is near perfect. It captures the Halloween spirit we all remember as kids. All FUN with a hint of SCARE!!
-Some references will become dated with time (I'm a rich baseball player in an SUV") but overall, it's not too trendy.
-I got a little tired of the "Wolfman being hungry" gag. The vampire family, on the other hand, epitomize funny...
Great kids' movie!
At the time my daughter saw this she was four years-old and loved it right off the bat. She is now five and still loves to watch it. My husband and I do too. Very entertaining for the whole family.
Spooktakular!
Halloween is a great holiday for kids of all ages. But sometimes there are things that may just be a little bit scary... until you get to know them. After all, what's a holiday without frights? Arbor Day?
Scary Godmother is a perfect Halloween movie for kids that helps teach them that it's okay to be a little scared sometimes, so long as you're having fun. All the creatures of the Fright Side help make Halloween fun for everyone and Hannah learns that not all monsters are big and scary. Some are just big.
