A great fun movie for the early teen. As a 6th grade teacher I use it in mid February (Valentine's Day)and near the science fair time, as a "Frog Love Story". It is based on the idea that a nerd (science student) buys a frog who was once a Prince. Of course the frog wants to be kissed (and turned into a Prince again) and Arlo (the student) wants a good science fair project. He also wants to get kissed. Along comes a cheerleader who needs a good grade in sciencewho is willing to be Arlo's partner and the story hops off from there. Shelly Duvall and Elliot Gould are wonderful as the post hippy parents. This is a good video for any age group.

I always loved this movie as a kid, and while it's a little sillier than I remembered from when I was twelve, it's still entertaining and clever. The main character, Arlo, is a cute science geek who tends to take frogs to strange places, like on dates. Fortunately, his newest acquisition happens to be a cursed, 600-yr.-old Italian Prince (he wouldn't kiss a witch, and now *poof* he's a frog). Gus (the frog prince), tries to help Arlo boost his confidence so he can be with the cute girl from school, while Arlo tries to get Gus kissed. A series of misadventures ensues. Obviously, there is a cute, uplifting ending, as can be expected from all Wonderworks films, and I guarantee that you will not get the song "That's Amore" out of your head for weeks. Kids who like reptiles/amphibians and science will enjoy this movie, as well as those who just enjoy slightly comedic stories. Children frightened of snakes or lizards may be distressed by the plethora of them on screen. Overall, I definately recommend this movie; it's cute and clean, and generally amusing.

This film has a great cast and is filled with hysterical moments. Sit down with the kids and a bowl of popcorn for a good old-fashioned night at the movies.

This was a movie that my kids grew up with. When I had the chance to buy it on Amazon, I snatched it up. Excellent movie, a lot of memories.

I liked this movie and you may too. It's about a reptile-loving boy who befriends a frog. the boy asks susie to be his science fair parthner and he thinks she really likes him. but it's just for her good grade. then the two end up kissing and yeah. pretty good, family film whch I liked and reccomend.

Frog is a good movie about a boy Arlo who finds a frog who can talk! He Makes a deal with the frog He tries to get the frog kissed while the frog helps him win a science project.This movie is a good one mostly for little kids but it is still pretty good!

Great movie, however I sure wish I could find it on DVD. Any one out there know how to find this product on DVD

Relationships change as we age. It reminds us of how we were, and what the influences were that helped us resolve issues at certain times. This movie proves that one never knows what life may put in front of us next.

This is a wonderful movie, I would recommend it to everyone. It's been a favorite of mine for years.
