LastingAware The greatest movie ever!

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

cyberdale "Quirky" doesn't begin to describe this. If you're not in the mood for this, you may well find it intensely annoying, but if you relax there's much to enjoy for adults as well as kids (my 5-year-old daughter adores it). It's a veritable Who's Who of 80's pop culture (remember Pia Zadora??). In fact, the lead actor Dan Gilroy is about the only one I didn't recognize, although he does a fine job. The acting is at once broad and deadpan, with lots of wordplay and bad puns.Fans of the cult musician/composer (and former child actor--see "The Swan" with Grace Kelly) Van Dyke Parks will take special pleasure in his whimsical score; Van Dyke even acts in this one. Director Jeff Stein ("The Kids Are Alright") has his 80s MTV video skills down (fans of the fish-eye lens will have a ball), but the story meanders to a pleasant conclusion, and if it's not your cup of tea, you can at least enjoy "spot the cameo" (look! It's Dweezil Zappa!).

rrlitch "Kids Movie"? Not in my opinion!!! This movie is Definitely for adults! Kids enjoy the basic story line (which is kinda weak), but only adults will get the FULL humor and the innuendos that FILL the movie!Example: Little Richard was at his BEST playing "Old King Cole" - a "merry" old soul.... ZZ Top play the "Three Men in a Boat" (which is actually an over-sized tea cup!)... Bobby Brown is one of the "Three Blind Mice" - who are supposed to be detectives??? Paul Simon does a GREAT job as "Simple Simon" - his lines are so off the wall that you'll have to rewind this section several times because you'll be laughing so hard! Howie Mandel is "Humpty Dumpty"... EVERY character is played by a known TV or Movie actor - ranging from Jean Stapleton to Pia Zadora!!Unfortunately, someone borrowed my copy and I can't find another. Any help here would be GREATLY appreciated!

suburbanspeed I can say that many movies may qualify as clouds. In this year alone, at least half a dozen movies that have been released we can all agree upon as being clouds, or at least cloud-like (take for example, Mean Girls and Kill Bill Vol. 2). Of all these many clouds, only a few stand out from the rest of these clouds as being truly or at least somewhat special. This movie is definitely a special cloud, and I would recommend it to anyone that enjoys clouds. The music of this movie inspires us to look within ourselves, and perhaps to even realize our own potential for cloudiness. It is through movies like Mother Goose Rock 'n' Rhyme that we as a society can provide something valuable for future generations, much like the Colliseum or the XFL. Quality film-making, and addresses social issues such as alienation, hegemony, adoption, and suffrage.

Yalith This movie has it all: famous faces from the film, tv, and music industries playing Nursery Rhyme characters. Who wouldn't want to see Little Richard as Old King Cole, Howie Mandel dressed in an egg costume as Humpty Dumpty, and The Stray Cats dressed as a musical cat band (literally). I know everyone in my family has always loved watching it. I think you will too!
