4 out of 5 stars The Peach is the Thing   February 9, 1999

When I first heard there was to be an adaption of the book I was wondering, how on earth they'd handle a peach like that?

But they did it, and beautifully I might add. If they had handled it any other way I just couldn't see it working as well. I'm not as happy with the ending. Some aspects of it were just a little too convinient. BUT If one were to disreguard that it was a fun movie great for all ages.


5 out of 5 stars A wonderful Movie   January 26, 1999

Based on the novel by Roald Dahl, this movie is adapted from his book. The film begins when four year old James Trotter (Paul Terry) loses both parents and has to live with his two vulgar aunts, Sponge and Spiker. A friend gives him green worms that would help him escape his cruel guardians. But they got away. And James did too, when the dead peach tree came back to life, miraculously. He took a ride across the Atlantic ocean to New York. His aunts followed him across the sea in their Chitty Chitty Bang Bang vehichle. But the spider kills the Aunts in the end. And James lives in the peach pit in Central park from that day on. One of the best disney movies. I wish that someone would release Song of the South on video.
