5.0 out of 5 stars Nostalgic trip, January 27, 2002

This review is from: Tommy Tricker and the Stamp Traveller [VHS] (VHS Tape)

When I was younger, my brother, sister, and I always begged my mom to rent this movie -- we absolutely loved it, but my mom could never find it on video so that we could own our own copy. When we moved to Orange County when I was 10, none of the franchise video stores (Blockbuster, et al.) carried it, and the movie soon became a memory. I'm 20 years old now, and recently my mom found it here on Amazon.com and bought it for us; rewatching it was quite an experience -- all of the small details (Ralphie escaping from Tommy's house, the boy who sings "I'm a-running," the sardine sandwich, Ralphie's trips to China and Australia, and the fact that you never see Charles Merriweather so that he remains an enigmatic figure) were exactly as I remembered them. For any adult, this is definitely a hokey late-'80s Canadian children's movie, but every parent should show this to their kids; I know I will. It is an original and all together delightful movie -- a must-see for anyone with an imagination, anyone who liked The Neverending Story, Alice in Wonderland, or the book The Phantom Tollbooth.

We borrowed this years ago from our local library and my son watched it several times... It started him on a stamp collecting hobby and an interest in learning more about the countries depicted on the film... I liked it because it is hard to find wholesome family films these days so it was a treat to see this movie!!! We are trying to get a copy of it now!

4.0 out of 5 stars Tommy Tricker - Fun., August 3, 2001

I give Tommy Tricker a thumbs up.

It is a movie starring kids meant for kids. If you are looking for some sort of "inner meaning" don't bother watching it. If you are kid who wants to enjoy a fun movie see it.

SPECIAL NOTE: Up and coming rock singer Rufus Wainwright has a cameo appearance. He is credited as the "Singing Boy."
