Movie Reviews

Miami Herald - 9/10 by Laurie HornFollow That Bird isn’t really the most memorable movie in terms of music or storyline—there’s a reason you don’t remember any of the songs from the movie like you do the ones from Sesame Street, the show—but it contains moments, both comical and tragic, that are absolutely indelible.
Aisle Seat - 8/10 by Mike McGranaghanThe series' core values are faithfully reflected in the film.
7M Pictures - 7/10 by Kevin CarrIf you have kids, check this one out for nostalgia's sake and a chance for them to see the Children's Television Workshop in its younger years.
Slant Magazine - 6/10 by D. W. GardnerWhile kids will and have enjoyed the film as a sweet-and-occasionally-exciting road trip with all their favorite Sesame Street friends, parents are presented with far deeper themes to consider.
Nolan's Pop Culture Review - 6/10 by Michael A. SmithCan't go wrong with a film that features Snuffleupagus!
The New York Times - 6/10 by Walter GoodmanThe teaching of letters and numbers, for which Sesame Street is famous, is played down here in favor of messages about getting along.
User Review - 10/10 by Christina GFantastic movie for kids. Anyone who was ever a fan of Sesame Street can still enjoy this movie.
User Review - 10/10 by Lucas MAlthought this is not an appropriate movie for me, I love it. This movie helps little kids to learn,and it is really funny.The cookie monster has a big participation in this movie. It is awesome!
User Review - 10/10 by Timothy STwo words: NO ELMO!!! =D (Well, he looks out a window at one point, but I don't have to hear him talk about himself in the third person with that abrasive voice!) Follow That Bird is a charming and often very funny little film with great music and the Sesame Street cast from its heyday (Linda Bove for the win!!!). Jim Henson was still alive, Carroll Spinney is wonderful as both Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch (whose "Grouch Anthem" nearly steals the show in the first scene), and the incomparable Frank Oz provides the voices of three of my favorite Muppets (Bert, Cookie Monster, and Grover). Add to that some inspired guest cameos from Sandra Bernhard, Chevy Chase, Waylon Jennings, and John Candy. And let's not forget Sally Kellerman as the well-meaning-yet-ominous Miss Finch, and Dave Thomas and Joe Flaherty as the hilariously villainous Sleaze Brothers. Mid-80s styles and celebrities aside, this is a virtually timeless film. I've never forgotten the lesson I learned from it, either: NEVER jump from a moving truck....unless Gordon says it's okay.
User Review - 10/10 by Joshua Hi used to just sit and cry about this for days.
