Artivels Undescribable Perfection

Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

SnoopyStyle Peppermint Patty calls Charlie Brown to brag about being sent to Europe as a foreign exchange student with Marcie. To her dismay, Charlie Brown and Linus are also going. Snoopy and Woodstock join them. Everybody says "Bon Voyage" and Lucy yells "and Don't Come Back!". Charlie Brown receives a letter from Violette Honfleur inviting him to stay at the Château du Mal Voisin (The House of the Bad Neighbor). They fly to London and take the train to Dover crossing the channel on the boat.This doesn't have the childhood isolation of other Peanuts stuff. The adults talk. The gang is reduced to the six characters. Going to France is going to another world. This is still a nice journey outside of the strictly traditional Peanuts world. It has the great childish wonder. I just wish the whole gang is there with them.

MisterWhiplash I remember as a kid watching this special several times, and taking to it as a fan of animation (and maybe as a casual Peanuts fan too) with plenty of interest. In retrospect I think I must have really responded to its break from some of the conventions of cartoons, and even from what usually goes with the Peanuts. There are adults, they speak dialog on camera, and (this was a factor of interest) they speak French a good lot of the time; even Marcie speaks French, as in the traffic scene. The special has some mystery to it, as to the mysterious Château that Charlie Brown and Snoopy stay at in their stay in France, and lots of good jokes too mixed in with the suspense. Before the big finale comes around, with a fire sequence that, in its own way, is Schultz and team's closest equivalent to an action scene in one of the classic Disney films, there are also lots of funny, impressionable scenes for children interested. Maybe it was an off-key fascination, but the sequence with Snoopy and Woodstock getting their kicks at the French pub is fantastic, and I have a fond memory that gives me a grin of their vaudevillian playing off each other and the scenery. And the bit with the French bread is awesome as well. Interesting enough the only bits that aren't up to snuff are some of the drawn-out talks from Peppermint Patty, however these are overshadowed by the fun that's to be had. It may not be for all Peanuts fans out there, but even for those that aren't it might provide some interest.

emasterslake This is one of my personal favorite of the Peanuts Movies.What's cool about this one is Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the others get to go to England and France as Foreign exchange students.While Charlie Brown tries to find out who sent him a letter from France. And what connection does he have with that person.There's plenty of gags and at least one laugh in most of the scenes.The best part is when Snoopy goes to a bar and plays Table Soccer with WoodStock.It's a very good and a memorable Peanuts movie.Highly recommended to those who like the Peanuts a lot. And deserves to be in any Peanuts collection.

gasgano All right, I haven't seen this in a while, but here goes... This film was created to commemorate the 30th anniversery of Peanuts. I loved almost every aspect of this. It did break a Peanuts rule however, the adults talk.
