La Ferme enchantée

The thing is, this movie basically has almost no substance or plot whatsoever. The summary of it is: Pumpkin olympics on a farm. Thats it. The characters are all weird or creepy, like how a spider literally hits on a bat, or how theres 2 pumpkins that are conjoined twins. Not only that, but the movie also seems to be a bit biased on characters (or it's just the scarecrow's stupidity). Thing is, Big Tom and Little Tom (the conjoined twins) attend the pumpkin olympics, but their conjoinedness makes them unable to do some things that single pumpkins can do. As a result they get disqualified for it and funny it may be, it was more funny to see the scarecrow being entirely stupid, rather than me going full on schadenfruede on the 2 pumpkins. But when weather changes in a blink of an eye, and fire somehow forms in the rain, this movie follows physics on a whole other level, to the point where it's irritating and it makes you think: "If so and so character just did so and so like, 2 seconds longer they wouldn't need Spookley to intervene and save them". Also as much as how thunderstorms can produce wind speeds high enough to knock pumpkins around, it doesn't make sense because even if it's the whole "cartoon not being real", I would expect the whole farm to be wiped out in like 2 minutes.

Short and sweet review just like the movie. Misfit pumpkin whose not accepted by other more traditionally shaped pumpkins in the patch has to overcome bla bla bla. It's a poor man's Rudolph the Red-Nose Reindeer. But it's message of acceptance is one that you'd appreciate your child hearing. Definitely a tad juvenile....I'd say 2-7 years old would be the best audience. Animation had a cheap feel to it but my son watched this multiple times over the years and tonight I'm watching it in its entirety with him. Yet he still seems entertained at age 9, so how bad could it be? Sometimes OK....is OK I guess.

My daughter absolutely loves this one and the music ( I don't care for the music) Bottom line the story is cute with a great message! My lo watched this as many times as it aired on our cable network so I'd say we saw this about 30 times during Halloween season. If you have a child under 3 I bet they'll really enjoy the cartoon.

Teaches important values that a person's worth is not defined by their appearance, but rather by their character and what they do for others. Good to watch with your child to reinforce message learned.

This movie is supposed to be all about not judging someone based on their appearance but is nothing but rip-offs and lazy "humor" even by toddler standards. They have TWO "slow" or intellectually challenged characters that are played for laughs which again is lazy and runs against the "don't judge" message. They have TWO Joe Pesci from Goodfellas rip-off characters. They also rip-off the Olympic games for some reason. Terrible songs, terrible animation, terrible voice acting. My young child thought it was "okay" and I thought it was a very long 45 minutes.
