5 out of 5 stars Greatest Childhood film ever?   February 17, 2006
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This film is, without doubt, one of my favourite films of all time. Its fantastic! Gorgeously imaginative, wonderfully voice acted, and completely unforgettable. And its not just for Kids! This'll have you hooked whatever the age. Its got everything. But then, I'm sure you all knew that


3 out of 5 stars This Is Wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   September 14, 2005
  1 out of 3 found this review helpful

I am a huge Roald Dahl fan, and I have got everything by him, even his brand-new comic!!! When I first saw this, it was wonderful to me! A great Roald Dahl adaption based on one of my favroite Roald Dahl tales. David Jason is great as The BFG, but I think It will be better if it was live-action, but one the whole it is a wonderous Roald Dahl movie!!! See you later!

5 out of 5 stars Fabulously Inventive   June 13, 2000

This is an animated version of the children's story "The Big Friendly Giant" by Roald Dahl. While ostensibly a childrens story, it contains much that will keep mothers and fathers watching as well.pAs befits a children's story, the plot is simple and direct. A small girl, Sophie, is kidnapped by a friendly giant when she catches him at his work delivering dreams. She discovers many things about giants and their world including the fact that there are also some very bad giants who want to eat people.pEventually, Sophie and the Big Friendly Giant enlist the help of the Queen of England and they set out to catch the bad giants.pChildren as young as four years old will enjoy this film. They may be little afraid but it's not so bad as to give them nightmares. The film will also appeal to older children too as the story, while simple in it's barest form, contains enough detail and wit to maintain interest.pAlso, children will find a lot to talk about in the film and, if parents buy the original novel, they have something to read to, or with their child.pSometimes, children watch a film over and over until it is worn out. In this case, be warned, they may watch this one so much that they wear out the player!
