Aventure magique! Un film Wiggles

Anyone who actually has given The Wiggles a chance knows that they are a brilliant form of children's entertainment. Though some unknowing commenter here referred to them as "brits" they are actually Australian, and I have learned why adults and children alike are wild about them. More than any other show, they do not underestimate the intelligence and learning ability of children, as they use words like "constructing" instead of "building", "improve" instead of "get better" and "interested in" rather than "want". These guys each bring something original and wonderful to the table, as well as being musically talented and gifted.

My son and I can't get enough of them, and he actually requests this movie more often than the other Wiggles DVDs we have.

The character, Wally is very cute and funny, and The Wiggles give us lots of extra silly for this one. What a delightful movie!

The wiggles might get a lot of negative comments from adults but sit back and don't watch them, watch your children watching them. My 2 year old daughter doesn't care much for sponge bob or many other cartoons that my five year old enjoys but when she first saw the wiggles she loved them instantly as did my five year old now they want to watch them all the time and maybe you don't get the wiggles but no doubt their target audiance does and they love them just watch the concert scenes. I like the giggles to as a matter of fact.

The Wiggly Movie has taken a bit of a departure from their smaller sets to a larger "town", and for children, I think the plot is good. The action is entertaining, and the music, as always is Wiggly-rific. My 2 and 4 year olds adore these guys, and I think they have a future as Wiggly dancers, already having the dance moves down pat. For any show to keep their attention and loyalty for as long as this has, I say kudos. The sets are very colorful. The costumes are adorable. The script calls for not only immediate audience interaction, but interaction by kids watching on their TV's. It includes them in the action. I think part of the appeal is this factor, not only in the movie, but in the Wiggles videos in general. Wally, in the movie, is a lovable bumbler who finds friendship, hope, and success through perseverance. An important lesson for all.

"What is wrong with people? A kid show has to still be smart and funny and not patronizing. The Wiggles is anything but that. It stars these four bizarre fellas who live in Pee Wee's summer home with some oddly low-budget puppets and dance a lot. The acting abilities of these four Brits is questionable, since they overdo all of their lines like kids won't be able to understand them otherwise... We also get some really dopey concert scenes where the 'Wiggles' sing a very repetitive song while shaking their tails..."

A kids show doesn't have to entertain adults. Patronising? It's a show for children, and they seem to enjoy it immensely. The Wiggles themselves have absolutely no pretensions at all. Oddly low budget sets and puppets? Last year they made $34 million and they always invest most of it back into the franchise. He claims that these "Brits" overdo all there dialogue so the kids can't even understand it. First off they are not Brits. Second, all kid entertainers overdo everything- children don't react well with subtlety. And third, if they overdo it so much the kids can't understand it, then how can they sing along to every last one of their songs in concerts and on TV? Criticising a kids show for being repetitive? You are obviously unaware of the fact that kids need repetition to learn- why do you think all kids shows have such a strict pattern and are repeated so much? Uh huh.

And that's the end of that chapter.

This movie is cute and funny and I recommend it for kids of all ages.

The Wiggles are not dumb! They are the best! The music is AWESOME! I would rather have my kids watch them then the Teletubbies any day of the week.

My favorite Wiggle is Anthony (the blue one) and I love Captain Feathersword! They are both hysterical. Greg (the yellow one) is a great singer, Murray (the red one)is a great guitar player and Jeff (the purple sleepy one)is cute and funny.

I've also have their other two movies 'Space Dancing' and 'Cold Spagetti Western' and I love them both. I have other Wiggle Tapes and CDs and all I can say is that these guys from Australia are AWESOME!
