VHS Movie Reviews of Animaniacs: Wakko's Wish (Clam)
Movie Review: Wakko's Wish
Summary: 4 Stars
This movie is not what I expected. The content is a little advanced for 4-5 year olds. But the characters are really cute.
Movie Review: Lives up to the Series
Summary: 4 Stars
This feature-length film is a must see for anyone who appreciates the clever and hilarious wit that made Steven Spielberg's "Animaniacs" shine on the small screen. Unlike numerous movies based on television series, this one actually does justice to the show on which is was based.
While the plot obviously still revolves around the Warner siblings, this film does not recycle the premise of the TV show. In this quirky story, Yakko, Wakko and Dot live in a medieval town called Acme Falls where the greedy Baron von Plotz is taxing the villagers to the max. In order to improve things in Acme Falls, Wakko formulates a plan which involves making a wish on a wishing star that has fallen to Earth.
During this entertaining romp, viewers will enjoy ten original songs and the original voice talents from the TV series. Many of the supporting characters from the series show up playing the residents of Acme falls. As "Animaniacs" no longer airs in syndication, seeing this film is a great way revisit the brilliance of this incredible show.
Movie Review: Great but, why not Region 2?
Summary: 4 Stars
I saw this movie on Cartoon Network years ago and I thought it was an absolutely brilliant movie! But, just before I was thinking of putting this on my Christmas list, I found out that you can only get this in the US and even worst, they only do this on Video. That means you can't make your DVD Player region-free and easily without fuss put it in and watch it because it's not on DVD! PLEASE re-release this on DVD and this time maybe, internationally!Movie Review: Better then good
Summary: 5 Stars
My god i know i was being generous with the five stars, but come on! This movie has it, it's got comdey, it's got romance (Between Pinky and a horse), it's got a sad part in it that made me cried, THE TENTH TIME I SAW IT! I mean everytime i watch that scene with Dot and Yakko that she is about to die, it just makes me have a tear drop. I mean this movie is like a god, some times you get sick of the songs, but they are catchy, there's one about money, catching the wishing star, if you make a wish what would it be, loosing money, and a song about never giving up hope, which is also a good message those parents out there...so if your kid wants that movie, don't think twice buy it, in fact you can watch late at night, when the kids are asleep, and hear and see all the comdemy for those of you who can get the older jokes. It's more of a kids movie when just watching the plot, but the comdemy is for adults, the romance is for the women (Or men), and that one scene at the end where it made me cry can be for 10-14 year old girls who just need to be all moody and cry about Dot. Also in the story you can hear the story of 'mom and dad', Yakko, Wakko, and Dot's parents who died a long time ago, when Dot was not even a year old (I think). Dot is really the one who wants to hear the story, but Yakko doesn't mind, and Wakko stands and watches them, because Dot is sick, and he wants to help her but lost money to.
This story also gave me a chance to see more of Dot's brothers helping her out in her time of need. Wakko really is the one who has the spot light in the movie, Dot along side with him because they want the money in the first place to save her, from the sickness she has which no one knows what is it, until the end, you probably won't get it then. One thing i will say is this, everyone know's they're orphans and they all know that they went to the star to get money to help Dot, but being their greedy selfs, they wanted the star to them, to them make a wish. It doesn't seem until Dot has fallen and she can't get up that everyone sees how greedy they were, and be's all '(Gasp)', even Brain, from Pinky and the Brain, and Mindy, who is just a baby. Everyone who is from serious to whackness goes in shock at that point, and it doesn't say the movie, they then see how greedy they were, if they hadn't run off to get the star for themselfs, maybe the king wouldn't find out, and maybe they could have gotten it and Dot would survive. (She does i'm just saying from this point)
But anyway, say I'm this generous person all you want, but when i hate something i'll let you know. But this i love, sometimes I just start to think of the movie, and even if i am in the tub i would get out and set it up in my VCR, i recorded Wakko's Wish when Cartoon Network was airing it. Although my picture is not perfect, so i think i need a new one. But trust me, some of you know me from 'Fanfiction.net' then you know Gothica13 never lies. So trust me one this one, for those of you whose favorite chariter is Wakko, he is the main star, and Dot right next to him, and Yakko shows how nice of a brother and a leader he can be.
Now i just wish that they would make a sequel. Then that would be cool.
Movie Review: Wakko's Wish Is Amazingly Heartwarming and Fun!
Summary: 4 Stars
Always a big fan of the Animaniacs I love the teo brother sn the sister named Yakko, Wakko and Dot.This is the story of Wish that can be granted to anyone in the old town of Acme Falls. Every Animaniac character has a role in this story that involves everyone in a race.
Little Dot needs an operation, the town is Poor, the Nurse is confused as being just good-looking and the Brain still wants to take over the world.
It is filled with music, fun, action, chases and even a Mime!
Fun for the whole family and great to watch for the Holiday Season. I ahve watched this every year over the Holidays since it came out. (11-30-03)
Summary of Animaniacs: Wakko's Wish (Clam)
This made-for-video feature-length animated movie finds the Animaniacs living in Acme Falls, a town in the country of Warnerstock, which is overthrown by a greedy king who taxes the good citizens into a state of pennilessness. Wakko, Yakko, and Dot are displaced royal orphans who have fallen on hard times until Wakko makes a wish to save his ailing sis. Pip, the desire fulfillment facilitator (the ever dry Ben Stein), directs him toward a fallen star. The first one who touches it will have a wish come true. The race is on, with the king, Pinky and the Brain, and other Warner characters giving the trio a run for the money--literally. Along the way, viewers are treated to big musical numbers and jokes about everyone and everything from Snow White to the mayor of Washington, D.C. Of course, the kids make it in the nick of time, Dot gets her operation, and the economy of Acme Falls is revitalized. The story is directed at kids 5 and up, with much of the humor aimed squarely at their parents. --Kimberly Heinrichs7-9 Years Video
