Review The Very Hungry Caterpillar and other stories[1993] / 4 Front Video:

The Very Hungry Caterpillar is among most children's favourite books-and is even better on video. Yes, the pictures are still Eric Carle's signature collage style, a layering of painted tissue paper, and they continue to be accompanied by the simple, repetitive phrases that kids love. What animation adds is even more wonderful artwork that magically springs to life, an aural version of the sounds Carle so carefully describes in his books, and some terrific musical accompaniment. This video contains five popular stories: "The Very Hungry Caterpillar", "Papa, Please Get the Moon for Me", "The Very Quiet Cricket", "The Mixed Up Chameleon" and "I See a Song". Loveable characters abound, and the subjects (insects, planets, family, animals and music) are fascinating to kids. Especially intriguing is Carle's vision of how a song "looks". Brightly coloured musical notes and waves of sound pour forth from a variety of instruments-they dance, swim and metamorphose into animals, plants and almost anything else found in the natural world. By the time "I See a Song" is over, you and your child will be convinced that you really can see a song. It's a great supplement to your favourite books. (Ages 1 to 5) -Tami Horiuchi, Amazon. [+]

Review Cinderella 2 - Dreams Come True [2001] / Walt Disney Home Video:

Disney has once again "sequelised" a classic feature with Cinderella II: Dreams Come True. With smart foresight, the filmmakers choose to go with three snappy short films to comprise this 73-minute feature with the Fairy Godmother granting wishes to various characters. In the opening short, Cinderella must pursue life as queen. Several feathers are ruffled as she brings her down-home ways to the castle (bring the commoners in and open those darn curtains). In the other tales, one of Cinderella's animal pals receives a chance to see the world quite differently and finally, Anastasia, Cinderella's formerly evil stepsister, finds love with a little help. As with the other sequels, the look of the film helps bring the distance between the original and the sequel (here over 50 years) come together seamlessly. Little ones from age four to nine should be entertained while purists may be a bit aghast. -Doug Thomas, Amazon. com.

Review Oliver And Company (Disney) [1989] / Walt Disney Home Video:

Disney does Dickens in this animated version of Oliver Twist, in which a homeless New York City cat falls in with a bunch of mischievous dogs under the leadership of the appealing scoundrel Fagin. The roots of Disney's success with animation in the 1990s begins with this clever, energetic, atmospheric movie, which succeeds in capturing the grim world Dickens conjured. Lyricist Howard Ashman (The Little Mermaid) worked on the songs, the best of which is sung by Billy Joel, who provides the voice of (the Artful) Dodger. -Tom Keogh.

Review Pokemon - The First Movie [2000] / Warner Home Video:

The world domination of Pokémon begets their first theatrical movie. This adventure is a little more complex and dark than the popular TV series, but kids who live for the show will gobble up this film and ask for seconds. Those baffled by the show's popularity, however, will see nothing better here. Mewtwo, a new type of Pokémon designed by scientists to be the ultimate fighter, decides he wants to rule the world and challenges all the great Pokémasters to battle. Of course, our intrepid heroes Ash, Misty and Brock are there to tangle with Mewtwo and spoil his devilish schemes. The film is a tad more emotional than the show (that is, there is some emotion), with Ash sacrificing himself to defend his beloved Pikachu (but don't you worry, Ash will be just fine). Would you really expect the makers of this worldwide phenomenon to radically change its winning formula? The feature is only 55 minutes long, but there's also a 20-minute short, "Pikachu's Vacation". For the Pokémon novice, this escapade will truly baffle: the narrated tale has virtually no dialogue except Pokémon speaking their names (Bulbasaur, for instance, will only express emotion by using variations of his name: "Bulba, Bulba-SAUR!"). It's a real curio. -Doug Thomas.

Review The Hunchback Of Notre Dame 2 - The Secret Of The Bell [2001] / Walt Disney Home Video:

Most of the original characters-plus a few new ones-return in Hunchback Of Notre Dame II. Esmeralda (Demi Moore) and Phoebus (Kevin Kline) now have a son named Zephyr (Haley Joel Osment), with whom Quasi (Tom Hulce) has become friends. When the circus comes to town, the hunchback becomes enchanted by magician's assistant, Madellaine (Jennifer Love Hewitt), but the vain Sarousch (Michael McKean) is also a thief with an eye for the cathedral's jewelled bell. He forces Madellaine to woo Quasi while he carries out the theft. Will he get away with it? Will Madellaine learn to see the inner Quasi? And will Quasi be able to trust again when he learns of her deception? Songs and humorous hijinks from the gargoyles, such as Jason Alexander's Hugo, illustrate the lesson that-as in the first feature-you can't judge a book by its cover. This sequel is squarely aimed at a younger audience than the original, ages 5-10 should be very entertained. -Kathleen C. Fennessy, Amazon. com.
