The Wiggles Movie (1997)

Touches You

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Blistering performances.

A summation of this film is the title..the line, that, for me, stole the show.This 1997 film starring Page, Cook, Fatt and Field shows them go about their daily lives as they encounter Wally the Magician (Tony Harvey)who leads them in to burden but also gives them a sense of happiness. Dean Covell as the director is a perfect fit, his artistic eye really brightens this film beyond belief. However, there are some flaws. The constant wand debacle is frightening and sad which doesn't fit in to the film's lovely eye. Also, when the pirate drowns a tear comes to my eye every time I see it. There are also some historical inaccuracies such as a dinosaur, to add to this figures of the canine species yield the same size as those of homo sapian units.One thing's for sure though- THIS IS A MUST SEE FILM! Fatt's tendency to sleep is hilarious!

I have 16 month old twins and they are addicted to The Wiggles. The first few times we caught the TV show, I couldn't understand the attraction. Why these guys instead of say, Sesame Street? We bought The Wiggles movie and they love it, they dance along with the music and I get a break for 20-30 minutes.I did a little research and found out that three of the guys in the Wiggles are qualified preschool teachers. They met at school when they were studying early childhood education. They must know what they're doing, my kids aren't easily entertained at this age and they stop in their tracks if they hear a Wiggles song or see the Wiggles on TV. I recommend this movie to anyone with kids age 6 and under.

Whether you are 1 or 100, you can easily enjoy The Wiggles. There's humor, great singing, and values thrown in there. They are simplistic and rely more on their fantastic talent rather than depending on flashy clothes and sets. Easy forchildren to understand and adults to watch with their children. You'll want to sing, dance, and tap your toes along with the songs. I think they are moreenjoyable than the average children's show because they know how to appeal to their audience.Get ready to Wiggle!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What is wrong with people? A kid show has to still be smart and funny and not patronizing. The Wiggles is anything but that. It stars these four bizarre fellas who live in Pee Wee's summer home with some oddly low-budget puppets and dance a lot. The acting abilities of these four Brits is questionable, since they overdo all of their lines like kids won't be able to understand them otherwise. I saw one episode where a hairdresser comes over and cuts one of the Wiggles' hair, and she kept tilting her head to the side like a defective robot. This sequence went on for like 20 hours, with the lady cutting the man's hair about fifty times. He went from being blonde with dreadlocks to having long black flowing hair to bald. Yeah, the whole thing was fascinating. We also get some really dopey concert scenes where the 'Wiggles' sing a very repetitive song while shaking their tails. The whole thing is just a bizarre, insanely trippy experience. Not as weird or hypnotic as The Teletubbies, mind you, but just as irritating. Stick with VeggieTales or the classic stand-by Sesame Street, adults.
