so adorable
I am 32 years old so I remember the Strawberry Shortcake of yester-year. :-) I like the new and updated version so much better. This movie is absolutely adorable. My daughter is a very sensitive 3 year old, and this movie is so appropriate in every way. It has a sweet message, a good plot, it is visually very appealing. It's all about team work, forgiveness and friendship. I highly recommend this movie as an excellent alternative to the often violent and scary Disney films. And no princes here. Just a bunch of girls cooperating for a common goal. How cute!!
Boring and vapid
Yet another reboot for Strawberry, and this time it's an epic failure. My 4-year-old has been a HUGE SS fan for the past year, even had her birthday party with a SS theme last year. "Big Country Fun" is one of her favorites, and we really like the "Journey" movie as well. We own all of the DVDs and watch them often.
Unfortunately, we really could not get through this newest reinvention. We tried on three occasions to watch credits to credits and failed every time. There are characters missing--Honey Pie Pony is a favorite that's now MIA--and the animation/digitization is awful. And it's SO boring! After three attempts, I still have no idea what the movie was about. With the older movies, the characters seems like real people functioning in their real little world, but the new characters are just alien. It's strange and my DD is really upset. She doesn't have any interest in the toys at all already has told me that if another movie comes out, she doesn't want to watch it.
Disappointment; Not as cheery as former Strawberry Shortcake movies
I was expecting a smiliar format to the other Strawberry Shortcake movies, but it is not. I don't mind the makeover she's had, but this movie was not as cheery and fun as previous. There are FEW songs in it, just a lot of talking which is not fun for smaller kids...My daughter, who loves Strawberry Shortcake, was not excited baout this movie as she is with the other ones. I would not spend 14.99 on this movie. instead, use that money and go buy the other, older Straberry Shortcake movies to enjoy! Some of my daughter's favorites include: Adventures on Ice Cream Island, The Best pets Yet, and Big Country Fun.
