My daughters love The Wiggles, so we were ecstatic to see a brand-new movie. From an adult point of view, the story was very uneven, and the whole section with the tiny folk from Planet Teeny Weeny was unnecessary - there was no great song, just the boys doing a quick irish jig. Did my kids care? Nope! They loved this movie - if they could type they would have given it 5 stars. Instead, I (picky adult that I am) gave it four because, hey we adults watch it too! (At work recently, the song "Dance your gloomies away" would NOT leave my head)

My kids loved the songs. The "Eagle Rock" song was great, and my 2 1/2 yr old can now follow most of the dance moves.

Bottom line: Story is weak, not too many songs, but who cares? Kids will love it!

The first time we borrowed " Wiggles Space Dancing" from the library my children were younger and we pretty much concluded after the first watching that we were REALLY happy that we could take the video back.

But that was then. Now, it's a couple of years later and WOW what a difference time makes. My babies --now 3 and 5 years of age- are mesmerized by the video [on a lark we checked it out again]... and even I like it.

Whereas we found the animation and story annoying before, this time we found it refreshing and fun and a nice change from the real Wiggles.

Four Stars. Cute Wiggly story line with the ever popular characters. From our experience, a video for older Wiggles fans.

I know this might not suit adults to sit through the Wiggles again and again but my 18 month old son loves this DVD and dances, laughs and generally has a blast. He especially likes King Mondo (Ross Wilson) and the Wiggles doing the Eagle Rock. I can't get "What's This Button For" out of my head. Why the little aliens at the beginning like cows so much is a mystery...but I like the songs, they are refreshing after the daily grind of the Disney program - and I think the animation is cute. If you get the DVD watch the King Mondo part - I'd no idea this song "Eagle Rock" was a big hit in like the 70's in Australia.

I was very skeptical of this "different" Wiggles adventure. My 2 year old son LOVES the Wiggles and will only watch that show. He received this DVD as a birthday present and absolutely loves it! Now that I have seen it a million times, I love it too! The music is very catchy! I definitley recommed this one!

This is my all time favorite. It is totally different from all other Wiggles DVDs that I have ever seen. The story is based on an animated adventure happening inside Jeff's dream. In this adventure, they visit 3 planets on an alien ship then rock and roll their way back to earth. The reason I like this is that unlike so many children's movies, it is fun without having evil monsters or horrible tragedies. It is also weird enough to appeal to a 46 year old male like me as well as my 4 year old daughter. We have enjoyed watching this one together many times. Unfortunately, our copy has gone missing. We have the box but no DVD :-( I think my wife may have ditched it but it was good enough that I am ready to buy another copy!

My three year old has wanted to watch it constantly since we brought it home. The Wiggles wander into one of Jeff's dreams as computer animated bobble heads. The Captain takes the Wiggles, Wags and Dorothy for an unplanned space tour on a space ship.

They run into the King of Planet Rock Star which features Ross Wilson singing his hit Eagle Rock with the Wiggles.

The songs are as catchy as always. The animation style takes a bit to get used to but the charactes are well drafted and easily recognizable.

The DVD extras include a making of video that shows the Wiggles in street clothes. It goes throught the development process from concept to finished product.

I didn't think my 3 year old would like this movie because it's animated. However my mother-in-law bought it for her and she loves it. We have had it for about three days and we watch it about 5 times a day. So if your kids are Wiggle fans it's a must have for your collection.

The good news about The Wiggles Space Dancing is that I thought, it was a very magical Animated Adventure in most of the movie and it's the first time that the Wiggles and their producers would make a film which of course is mostly animated, including little bits of live action from begining to end. Best of all, I liked all the songs from this new movie, including "The Zeezap Song", "What's This Button For?", "Eagle Rock", "Dance Your Gloomies Away", and "Going Home".

I was a tad bit skeptical about buying this DVD initially when I read the reviews. But I bought it anyway for my 2 year old son, who is a loyal Wiggles fan. My son loves it and watch it over and over again. He already has a wide collection of The Wiggles DVDs and count this also as one of his favorites.

Boy, what a cute video! I'm not sure what the other reviewers are upset about - it's really, really cute and quite imaginative. It's fun seeing things from Jeff's dreamland point-of-view and the songs are quite cute. This really is a good time and a nice change from the studio Wiggles shows. It's just something different and quite welcome. Now on that "Dance the Gloomies Away" song, just TRY to get it out of your head! It's very cute and well worth the money. My little guy just sat there not moving throughout the video - something he normally doesn't do. And, since it has something to do with space, rocket ships, you name it, we have to watch this over, and over, and over.... The Wiggles are captivating even in cartoon form and this is just a great idea. No, the story isn't all that fantastic, especially with the little people. They really could have expanded on that one. But, all-in-all, it's a great video and I'm glad we got it.
