Edward Scissorhands [1991]

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Childrens DVD
starring: Johnny Depp, Winona Ryder, Dianne Wiest, Anthony Michael Hall, Kathy Baker
directed by: Tim Burton

This film is odd. Think of Desperate Housewives. Think of Pinnochio. Think lame love triangle. Think tortured genious. Then mix in Johnny Depp and Tim Burton, and you've got yourself an incrediby moving film you just won't be able to get out of your head for days afterwards. I don't know enough about this film to give it full justice in a review, but I will say that I put off watching this film for many years, and probably would have for many years more had my friend not leant me the DVD, and that's a choice I highly regret. A must see film for everybody, yes it's odd, quirky + off-beat but it's humour and heart and also undeniable. Excellent.

The Wiggles - Toot Toot! / Yummy Yummy

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Childrens DVD
starring: Jeff Fatt, Murray Cook, Anthony Field, Greg Page

January 31, 2005
It has taken me a long, long time to love The Wiggles. I bought this dvd for our (now 2 year old) daughter after seeing The Wiggles on Tarrant On TV, and deciding that if I had to watch a kids dvd, I might as well get in a few jingoistic laughs. The first 15 times I watched it with my daughter, I smirked through Crunchy Munchy Honeycakes, laughed with great triumph at Hot Potato and hurriedly pressed Fast Forward when the Wiggles Puppets appeared. The next 15 times I watched it, I found myself marvelling at how absorbed our daughter was, and I started associating The Wiggles with a rare sense of peace and quiet. After I had watched this dvd for the 50th time, I was humming the tunes, hell, we all were, and my husband had picked Anthony as his favourite ... Read More:

Labyrinth (Collector's Edition) [1986]

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Childrens DVD
starring: David Bowie, Jennifer Connelly, Toby Froud, Shelley Thompson, Christopher Malcolm
directed by: Jim Henson

April 19, 2004
This film is an all time great, the songs, the story, the puppets and David Bowie make this movie a complete gem. If you dont already have it then i ORDER you to buy it now lol. Seriously though, there are few movies as much fun as Labyrinth and as memorable too. It really is a must have for any Henson fans who love puppets instead of computer special effects. All the actors in this are fantastic and for me this reminds me of my childhood.

Just a fantasti adventure for kids and adults!

directed by: Robert Zemeckis

This is a very inventive, technically brilliant cartoon. It has a lot of incredibly funny scenes and a great many superb comic in jokes.

For the time this was made, the special effects are stunning. This is a great piece of entertainment.

Kung Fu Panda (2-Disc Edition) [2008]

starring: Jack Black, Angelina Jolie, Dustin Hoffman, Ian McShane, Jackie Chan
directed by: Mark Osborne, John Stevenson

Yup it's yet another animals as humans cartoons with a moral to tell. But don't let that put you off because this is a cut above the usual.
It's time to pick a chosen one whose kung-fu skills will hold back the terror of the snow leopard Tai lung's escape. Sensei Shifu holds a tournament fully expecting one of his 5 top notch students to step up & take the title of 'dragon warrior'. Instead overweight noodle waiter Panda Po accidently finds himself in the arena & being picked out as the chosen one by the great one Oogway.
Through the opposition of the 5 pupils & their teacher & his own doubts Po finally finds himself facing off against Tai Lung.
Not much of a plot but it's delivery has a refreshingly different angle. Po is ... Read More:

My 5 year old niece loves this DVD and wrote especially to tell me. So, a 'true' review from it's intended audience? If you have a 5 year old niece and stuck for a gift, give this one a try.
