      Leslie Felperin Guardian While the inclusive, just-be-yourself moral message is didactically sound, this CGI phase of the animated train franchise sorely lacks the charm of the original low-tech shows. Rated: 2/5 May 19, 2016 Full Review Renee Schonfeld Common Sense Media Entertaining train tale with mild peril, positive messages. Rated: 3/5 Sep 27, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

It had ixed feelings for me honestly, it feels slow at times, then fast in others, useless scenes, good scenes. A not so enjoyable movie but still watchable. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 05/30/22 Full Review Audience Member This is a wonderful well-animated special with catchy songs, humour and a perfect story with perfect dialogue. My personal favourite musical number is Diesel's 'I'm Full Of Surprises'. I know I am only fifteen years old, but I have to say, as I used to love Thomas The Tank Engine when I was young, I saw this film on YouTube, and thought I'd get the DVD of this movie. I used to once watch the old CGI specials, and I thought they were pretty slow. Since this one came out, I knew that the animation became clean, the voices were getting better and better, and the whole Thomas & Friends franchise was starting to become more modern. It really tops the previous specials, which I never want to see again now - like Tale Of The Brave, or Day Of The Diesels. The Great Race is great for those who are young and old but still Thomas fans at heart, because it really is a GREAT race! Don't delay - let your kid see this film today!
