2 out of 5 stars I remember seeing this movie   July 20, 2006

I saw this movie when I was in elementary school. We went on a field trip. We went to a park after the movie. I was waiting in line to use the restroom and I shouted at one of the teachers for not letting me use it before before we left the park. My teacher did not like my behavior and she told me to owe the person an apology and I refused. As result I was not allowed to go on their field trip with them. I was 11 at that time, but I'm 21 now.

Orphaned James escapes from his wicked aunts to embark on a transatlantic journey on a giant peach with some equally giant insects in this adaptation of the famed Roald Dahl children's book, of which I have never been a big fan. Nevertheless, I wanted to love this film. I have been an admirer of stop-motion animation, the process used to bring these insects to life, ever since I was an astonished 7-year-old watching Jason and his crew fight a horde of skeletons in Ray Harryhausen's "Jason and the Argonauts." In addition, I loved "The Nightmare before Christmas," the previous collaboration between director/animator Henry Selick and Tim Burton. Unfortunately, I just couldn't get into this one. I applaud Selick's artistry, but I'm still not charmed by the source material, Randy Newman's songs are instantly forgettable, and the characters are too grotesque, with the exception of the Old Green Grasshopper.

My children really liked this story. It was a little short and needed a little more adventure but, we are still happy we purchased it.
