Fantastic!
... View MoreIt is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
... View MoreThe film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
... View More.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
... View MoreTo sum up this show: it's very nice and truly captures the spirit of Enid Blyton's short stories. Toytown itself is simply adorable and Noddy is precious. There are other lovable characters like Tubby and Tessie Bear, Martha Monkey, Dinah Doll, etc, but my personal favourite has got to be Big Ears. He's such a sweet presence and a great father figure. There's a great deal to like. The songs, not only the theme song but also the songs within the actual episodes, are quite nice. One thing I like is the length of the episodes. They aren't that long, only around 15 minutes. The animation is very well down, nice and soft with an almost felted quality to it. Honestly, I had assumed it to be stop-motion and was surprised to find that it's CGI. The stories themselves are refreshingly simple and relatively easy to follow. All in all, this is a very nice show that while I especially recommend for children I find myself enjoying as well, just as I always ever since I saw it when it first debuted.
... View MoreThis is one of the coolest shows ever! Make Way For Noddy is filled with fun lovable characters. Noddy, Big Ears, Tessie Bear, Dinah Doll, Mr. Plod, and Mr. Sparks are my favorite characters. Sly and Gobbo are the goblins who do naughty things in to Noddy and in Toyland. The songs are very wonderful, Noddy can really sing! The show is very funny at times, and preschool shows usually don't make me laugh when I watch them. That's was so unique about Make Way For Noddy, his show is funny! Noddy sometimes will have head shaking problems, and that's very funny. Toyland has never looked so much better in this computer animated cartoon!
... View MoreI really like this show. It is cute and very likable. I will say I grew up reading the timeless Enid Blyton stories and watching the BBC TV show, which I admit followed the stories better.That said though, kids are guaranteed to love this show. It isn't the greatest animated show of all time, but it is nice to watch. Kids will like the songs, adults might, I am putting slight emphasis on the might.The animation is very well done, it is colourful, smooth and crisp. The theme tune is one of those theme tunes like Pingu and Bear in the Big Blue House that gets in your head and stays there for a long time.The characters are still their engaging selves. Noddy is very likable, and Martha is very mischievous here. But my favourite character is Big Ears, a warm and loving friend and father figure with a pleasant soothing voice.The stories, messaging and scripting are quite simple, but are effective considering the main target audience. The voices are well done, Michael Dobson is perfect as Big Ears.In conclusion, this is a cute and nice show for preschoolers mainly. But adults will like the animation, the simple messages and the characters. 8/10 Bethany Cox
... View MoreThe animation is a modified cgi that is unusual and quite appealing. Toytown is adorable, and Noddy is precious.The characters are well-developed, and each has enough personal quirks to be easily identified and understood by children. In other words, each be counted on to have their own standard responses as various problems are put on them.The use of color and fanciful adaptations of everyday items are very well done. Who wouldn't want to sit down to a cup of chocolate at Noddy's charming kitchen table? Or go for a ride in his amazing convertible car? Imagine a constabulary building with a policeman's helmet as a roof. And renditions of flowers are everywhere.However, there is an underlying theme of PC reverse racism that is off-putting. Indeed, the "cuteness" can become cloying because of the writers need to treat one character differently than all the others. The concept of lessons learned, while noble, is, in reality, subjugated to a not-so-veiled warning that the "minority" character is an untouchable.
