Audience Member the adorable redhead based on the beloved children's books comes to life on the screen the movie is cute and clean and innocent enough for any viewer of any age to get into the songs are nice, the animation is fine, and the film isn't awful straight-to-video quality it's very, very short but Pippi has a lot to offer her hometown that it's ok to do things differently, bring a little excitement, and some intentioned-troubled joy Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Very stupid tale where Catherine O'Hara is the only big name and kids can have monkeys for pets. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member It's forgettable and the songs come out of nowhere. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member A great presence of my childhood; the songs get stuck in your head, sometimes until it drives you crazy, but it's fun. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member it was an ok animation but could have been better. it starred Catherine O'Hara (Home Alone), it was an ok film but I don't want to see it again, I don't want this movie on DVD, ok movie Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member I love this movie and if you don't, don't watch it again. Simple as that. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
