As a familiar good vs. evil story plays out against a mostly wintery backdrop, it's difficult to shake the impression that the filmmakers were taking their cues from the Ice Age and Toy Story franchises more than the original, though. Go to Full Review Dave White Movies.com 04/04/2011

In short, The Magic Roundabout is an enjoyable family film that will delight young audiences and is liable to send nostalgic 30-somethings on a (sadly, futile) quest to find the original series on DVD. Worth seeing. Go to Full Review Michelle Thomas Future Movies UK 01/30/2005

For all its undeniable promise, this take on The Magic Roundabout is just plain disastrous in its execution. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
