One of my all time favorites.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

This is a sparkling bonbon of an entertainment that kids and grownups alike can enjoy as a slew of entertainment's brightest stars portray beloved Mother Goose characters who help Mother Goose's son solve the mystery of his missing mom. (The Three Blind Mice (Bobby Brown) as film noir detectives! The Three Little Kittens ('80s band the Stray Cats)as a rock band! Georgie Porgie (Art Garfunkel) as the owner of a nightclub and Mother Hubbard (Elayne Boosler) running a diner! Gotta love it!)My only complaint is that David Bowie appeared nowhere in the cast (but then I'm a Bowie fan)The music is infectious and sticks in the brain and the costumes and sets are adorably quirky.I recommend this movie highly, whether you're 4 or 104+ or anywhere in between

this is an entertaining movie full of catchy tunes i found myself still singing. i wish more people had watched it so when i start singing one of the songs they would join in! my kids loved it we recorded on VHS years ago. i finally found the DVD and ordered it. when it came we watched it and realized that the DVD version was different than the version we recorded. some of our favorite songs on the recorded version are different on the DVD. what happened !!?? does anyone know how i can get the version that broadcast on Disney rather than the DVD version?? if you haven't seen the "other" version then the DVD is fine but if you have..... its a little disappointing.

I have read several reviews and message board entries on here, and the problem with you guys is that you are remembering it from the context of a 6 year old. I still own a copy and i tote it along everywhere i go and show it to film friends of mine and we cry with laughter. This movie is the worst rubbish imaginable. Our only guess to why all these people agreed to do this movie is to fulfill a court order of community service hours. The acting is horrendous, our lead actress Shelly Duvall takes the taco here pal. (the only good acting comes from Gordon through out the entire movie, luckily) The costumes should be illegal, ex: the Stray Cats bar. Some of the Rhymies are just plaster masks loosely attached. it makes me sad for Rick Baker. The downright gumption of the producers to get away with the poorly construed innuendo's of Woody Harrelson's Little Lamb, makes me sigh. This movie can probably seen as a metaphor for the consumerism and facade of the world of the 1980s.The only redeeming part of this movie is the fake 80s hair band dungeon torture sequence. I like singing along with the words on screen.

This movie is the best for children in learning the basics for the Mother Goose Nursery Rhyme Series! It's an up-beat version that kids will love and learn fast and easy. So many favorite veteran actors and actresses are in this as well to make it fun for the whole family and everyone!
