| Common Sense MediaRenee SchonfeldSolid messages, but more scares, spookiness than usual. |
| Sunday Times (UK)Jonathan DeanIt's a shame, then, about the odd couple, Frankie and Hurricane... which, along with some appalling songs, derails this film for the over-threes. |
| User ReviewTim WHey, reviewers! I haven't watched this special in ages, but I just wanted to share with you that when I first saw this on YouTube, I thought it was good, but not great. I can see why it had been considered a disappoint to all Thomas fans, and I can understand that. I'm a big Jim Howick fan, and I like Hugh Bonneville, because I saw him in the Paddington films. The songs are a bit longer than The Great Race, but that doesn't mean I don't like them. I'm just glad that they didn't release this when I was a kid, because I used to get scared of watching cartoon musicals. So to end this, although I haven't watched this special in ages, I just want to say that it is good, but I think The Great Race is better. Should have just called this 'Thomas & Friends: Journey Beyond Sodor: The Musical'. |

| User ReviewMichael GOur third annual trip to the cinema to see the latest Thomas release means a lot of excitement in our train obsessed household. My soon to be 5 year old is probably at the very top end of who this film is being aimed at, this is really for the pre-schoolers. Some reviews have said this is too scary but I really didn't think so and none of the children at the screening seemed unduly bothered. This is a more by the numbers offering than some of the previous films but the songs are better this time around and it's as always a fun 70min-ish offering. Thumbs up, we'll be back next year, if not with eldest son probably with the younger one! :) |
