VHS Movie Reviews of Babe (Clam) [VHS]

Movie Review: Unskippable ads
Summary: 2 Stars

The pre-roll ad is unskippable. And long. And obnoxious. I paid for the DVD, I shouldn't have to wait through a 2 minute commercial to watch it.

Movie Review: PLEASE PUT THIS ON BLU-RAY!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

That's all I'm saying - this movie screams out for Blu-ray! It's one of my top ten movies of all time, and has been for years. That'll do.

Movie Review: Forced child inappropriate previews
Summary: 2 Stars

The movie is a classic, but I wouldn't purchase this DVD again. You are forced to sit through 10 minutes of previews, some of which are inappropriate for kids. There is no way to skip through the previews.

Movie Review: For the Holidays, Consider This Classic!
Summary: 5 Stars

Every Christmas, a parade of family-oriented DVDs flood stores, some very good, most mediocre and quickly forgettable, but this season, may I suggest a Classic that isn't holiday-oriented, but has more heart and love than you'll find in a stocking-full of themed releases? I strongly recommend 1995's "Babe".

A live-action (enhanced with puppets and animation) tale of an orphaned pig (voiced by Christine Cavanaugh), the understanding farmer who 'adopts' him (James Cromwell, who is FABULOUS!), and the barnyard animals who become his family, the film sparkles from the opening credits until the closing ones, enriched by a warm, wise narration by Roscoe Lee Browne. Chapters are introduced by three of the most lovable mice you'll ever encounter, and the chapter about Christmas, while only a small part of the story, is hilarious (the farm's somewhat paranoid duck, realizing what the main course of the holiday dinner will be, shrieks "Christmas is CARNAGE!").

While most farm-oriented family films tend to be either too juvenile or too cloyingly saccharin, "Babe" never falls into either rut, succeeding in being cute enough to enchant children, and sly enough to appeal to adults...and it is very, very funny, to boot! I dare you NOT to smile when Farmer Hoggett sings and dances for the sick pig, or when Babe does his 'stuff' at the Sheepdog Championship (I, myself, get teary-eyed, but I'm a sentimental kind of guy!)

If you haven't seen "Babe", or are searching for a movie the entire family will enjoy, you can't do better than this!

Movie Review: The Under-"Dog" Prevails
Summary: 5 Stars

What's not to love, we did from the first time we ever saw it. Needed to add it to our collection, again (seems we loaned it out somewhere along the line..). Husband got his 46" LCD last Christmas and have found that it was like seeing the movies anew, especially when we could get the widescreen version, so this time that was a requirement. Blu-Ray is still too expensive to make sense, and can't play them in the RV when we travel. The stores didn't seem to have it in stock, so Internet shopping was the only way. This was a perfect fit for home and away, Grandson (9) loved it as much as we did during our recent "Adventure" to Mt Rushmore. Process was simple and fast, had the product in less than a week.

Summary of Babe (Clam) [VHS]

The surprise hit of 1995, this splendidly entertaining family film was nominated for six Academy Awards, including best picture, director, and screenplay, and deservedly won the Oscar for its subtly ingenious visual effects. Babe is all about the title character, a heroic little pig who's been taken in by the friendly farmer Hoggett (Oscar nominee James Cromwell), who senses that he and the pig share "a common destiny." Babe, a popular mischief-maker the Australian farm, is adopted by the resident border collie and raised as a puppy, befriended by Ferdinand the duck (who thinks he's a rooster), and saves the day as a champion "sheep-pig." Filled with a supporting cast of talking barnyard animals and a chorus of singing mice (courtesy of computer enhancements and clever animatronics), this frequently hilarious, visually imaginative movie has already taken its place as a family classic with timeless appeal. --Jeff Shannon
