 Rating:  - Cute MovieI got this for my 4 year old son, who loves trains. His preschool teacher read the book and showed this movie to the class and he had to have it! I lucked up and found it here on amazon for such a great price. The seller was very honest and the movie is in perfect playing condition. Still going strong! Very satisfied overall. My little boy is too! Rating: - I can!Great short film. After watching it, my 2 year old started saying "I can, I can" when he is climbing on the playground.

I am most disappointed that the helpful clown was turned into a buffoon. A lot of the characters changed and are hard to identify. I do like the Doc who helps Georgia. All that said it is a fun tape and your child will ...

Not only does it add a lot of gratuitous material, but it undermines the main lessons in the book. Here's a quick synopsis so you know what I'm talking about: Chili, the little blue switch engine, desperately wants to pull a train of her own but she is mocked for being too little by the mean dispatcher (in the form of a talking control tower). When the engine pulling the Birthday Train breaks down, ... Read More: |
