Plot: Ranking just behind the best of animator Don Bluth's films (Anastasia and The Secret of NIMH), Thumbelina is a bubble-light version of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale. The fi...( read more read more... )nger-sized heroine goes about the old-fashioned trials of trying to find a good man, but the film is clever enough to make it endearing for the 3-6 set and more than passable for adult viewers. Barry Manilow provides much of the song score, which helps immensely. The ballad "Let Me Be Your Wings" is as good as Disney's best. Carol Channing and Charo have a good ol' time with their songs too. The voice of Thumbelina is none other than Jodi Benson, who gave voice to Ariel in Disney's The Little Mermaid. --Doug Thomas

    Its odd considering that I HATE musicals that I happened to love this film as a kid.
    I've always loved imagining little things like fairies and such, and to me this film creates imagination and tells an enjoyable story for the family.

    This used to be one of my favorite movies. I can still sit down and watch it, even though it is kind of silly.

    This movie is quite unique for its genre, and fans of Don Bluth will get a kick out of it. The film presents some catchy songs and beautiful storyling, presenting a bit more fresh view on an old fairytale.

    Let me take you far beyond the stars."

    I LOVED this movie when I was little. I don't think I've seen it since I was seven. I really would love to see it again. The bright colors really add happiness to the grayness of your everyday life.

    Did anyone else catch one of the frogs looking up her skirt? That seriously disturbed me as a kid. Still scarred.

    Grading it as a childrens movie, I always thought it was so cute. The songs are pretty nice too but because I watched it as a kid, someone else may not feel the same as me.

    My sister would watch this movie over and over again when we were young. This is probably the only cartoon which I watched back then that had early hints of Michael Jackson, forced stripping and abduction to be married to a frog. FTW. But this movie still gives afresh take on the old fairy tale, but it leaves me one question: WHERE'S TOM THUMB? I THOUGHT HE WAS THUMBELINA'S LOVE INTEREST. CORNELIUS, YOU GIRL STEALER.

    I was sorting through my old video tapes I've had from no age, and found this film. I decided to watch it because I remember really enjoying this movie when I was younger. It's a pity, but I think I'm past the stage of loving these movies. In all fairness, I loved this when I was younger and young kids will love this, especially girls. Also the story's great and very likeable.

    A charming little story that occassionally lets its story get a bit out of hand. One for the romantic at heart.

    A wonderfully fun fairytale that has some really great songs in it. The story is lovely, the animation is great and the characters are colourful. Beautiful.
