VHS Movie Reviews of California Raisins - Meet the Raisins [VHS]
Movie Review: Old classic - gotta keep the VHS player
Summary: 4 Stars
Just another reason why I'm keeping my dusty old VHS player. Funny how VHS and Blu-ray are my favorites now. I never thought I'd find this California Raisins classic from my childhood, but here it is, street-fighting broccoli and all! If you didn't see this as a kid you might think it's lame and I'm crazy, but you're the one missing out. Great music. In fact, I'm going to go watch this again.Movie Review: Extremely Clever And A Lot Of Fun
Summary: 5 Stars
The songs and the "history" of the "California Raisins" are shown in this half-hour video....and it is very funny and entertaining. The California Raisins are claymation characters that it made it big with commercials on television.
This "documentary" is the "story" of the animated group - some fake history of these likable raisin characters. The "history" shows how the group was formed and played '60s and '70s R&B songs, then becoming famous, as mentioned with a few television commercials in the 1980s.
What's great about this are two things: the music and the humor. It takes a number of viewings to catch most of the funny visuals and hear all the puns in this short tape. It's presented more as a regular TV program would be, with commercials interrupting it, news bulletins, promotions, etc. It's very clever material.
I remember all these old rock 'n roll classics, and they sound even better with these "guys" doing it! It's been 20 years since this first came out on VHS - where is the DVD?
Movie Review: This movie is pretty darn snazzy...
Summary: 5 Stars
I'd usually give it a 4 star rating...but due to it's "underdog" status it won't hurt to bolster it a little. Besides, the 1-star reduction was only considering that not everyone who watches this will have the same nostalgia as me and the other reviewers seem to keep with us.
BUT all that out of the way, the animation quality really is superb, Vinton Studios is best with it's medium...and speaking of Vinton Studios...here's a little surprise for those wishing to buy this movie new:
[Didn't know Amazon removed URLs...but use Google and the description below and you'll "strike it rich."]
Both Raisin specials are made available on VHS at the Vinton Studios Store! So show your support and buy one for everyone you know.
Movie Review: Raisins r da funniest...
Summary: 5 Stars
I can remember watching this film when i was aged 4-7 and i watched so much that eventually the tape ran out, after that i have never watched it again but the memory has always lived in the back of my mind. So i thought the best way to find it on VHS was to look on Amazon but it is sold out, it is understandable, it is a kick-ass film but it has been 10 years since i watched it and amazon could make BARE money if it was available, kids and adults all over the world want to watch it!!!Movie Review: The raisins rock!
Summary: 5 Stars
My sister and I grew up watching this show, but we haven't been able to find the movie anywhere. This is the last place I can possibly think of to get the movie, but for some reason its not in stock. This is a great movie and if they made it available to the customers they could make a lot of money.
