5.0 out of 5 stars I literally could not take my eyes off of the screen, January 12, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Secret Adventures of Tom Thumb [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I'll put it to you like this. The movie plays out an excellent example of how we fear the things we know nothing about when we are face to face with them. You really have to pay close attention to whats going on with the characters and overall story to get the main idea. I know it will be difficult the first time through ;) Its eerie, intriguing, sad, amazing all wrapped up in one very well executed work of art. I have no doubt that my fellow open-minded peers will find this as creative and fun as I did.

5.0 out of 5 stars Animation at its mysterious and enchanting., February 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Secret Adventures of Tom Thumb [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I came upon this in the library and have since bought and given it several times. A combination of claymation and stop action, this is a magical world of strange creatures and laboratories, of tiny people you fall in love with, and evildoers who cannot win in the end.

Imagine City of Lost Children, blended with a bit of the Popeye movie and Peewee's playhouse... it's absorbing and complex, taking you to worlds within worlds.

And the soundtrack... noises, pings, music and mutterings, the soundtrack could stand on its own as an atmospheric soundscape.

Why is this movie not known? See it.
