Editorial Reviews

In THE LITTLE BEAR MOVIE, Little Bear and Father Bear go camping and encounter another young bear named Cub. When Little Bear learns that Cub has lost his parents he decides to help Cub find them. And of course, Owl, Hen, Cat and Duck join in the search party too! Along the way, Little Bear, Cub and Duck get separated from the others and must spend the night in the wilderness. When the morning comes they continue the search for Cub’s parents in a place very different from Little Bear’s world.

3.0 out of 5 stars A more intense Little Bear story, July 19, 2006

This review is from: The Little Bear Movie (DVD)

We were a little disappointed because the writter has succombed to current Hollywood trends and made this movie a little scary. I recall the episodes of Little Bear used to always be so kind and gentle. But this movie is a little different. The movie has a mountain lion that whats to eat little bear and his friends. The lion is a little scary. It also has a sad plot with "Cub" being orphaned during a storm. All ends well, but not the usual gentleness of Little Bear stories. A sensitive toddler could get bad dreams. Keep in mind this review is relative to other Little Bear episodes; the movie is certainly not scary when compared to Disney movies or regular TV.

5.0 out of 5 stars Little Bear is our family favorite, November 10, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: The Little Bear Movie [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Little Bear is the perfect family TV show and this movie is all that and more in a feature-length package. This movie is superior to the typical Disney films marketed to children in many ways- the story is interesting and easy enough to follow for young ones. There are not unnecessary scary and violent scenes or the requisite evil witch/monster/villian (besides an encounter with a mountain lion which is handled well). The music is beautiful and the relationships between characters are heartwarming. 5 stars for this movie and hopes for more to follow (please Nelvana??)

This review is from: The Little Bear Movie (DVD)

This is my 2 1/2-year-old daughter's favorite movie. She loves "Little Bear" more than any other TV program, and I wholeheartedly support it. This movie is just like the TV program, with the same messages -- love of family and friends, as well as the fostering of imaginative play. It's sweet and wholesome and well worth checking out.
