    One of my all time favorites.

    I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

    One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

    One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

    Bring back the old show. Show it to a new audience. Done. The original was great. My three boys watched all the episodes, growing up, and yes, learned something but were innocently entertained, as well. Back before political correctness. Each character was unique and likable It didn't need remaking - unless you are simply providing 'work' for Hollywood.

    The energy Kate McKinnen puts into the role of the new teacher is amazing! Feels just as good as the old show. This is educational television that actually works. It also has ethical lessons that are just subtle enough that kids have to work them though on their own leading to better understanding and retention and the Carlos jokes are AWESOME! (like a bad dad joke)

    The new release was awesome at first but after watching the series over and over again I start to realize how rough the episodes were.The dialogues don't flow smoothly into each other and go too quick, not to mention too many fancy words for 5th graders. The new Ms. Frizzle could use a little more self-control. The topic seems too generic and a lot aren't explained about the topic. I want to see more action not speaking. More cinematic to the scene like in the original only in 3D. Maybe extend the length of the Ep. to 40 minutes instead.Just look at examples, look at the original series, and retrain your employees at "movie making".I have an idea, just rename this series to debut, then create a completely new series with the same name but the Ep. is more in a chronological order (No having one Ep. in summer then next in Winter. Don't talk about stuff 4 to 7 yrs. old wouldn't know.Just some ideas, I've always enjoyed the original series and I've always wanted a new reboot but this one could use some work.

    It lacks the charm of the original shows. The science lessons seem watered down to squeeze in more wow factor and a little politicizing. The kids don't really figure out the lessons anymore but rather are just shown them while the teacher explains. The rest of the world in the show just accepts the magic bus as normal for some reason.The new Miss Frizzle feels more random than witty. She still makes lots of puns though. The kids don't have personalities anymore. Instead each episode they pick a kid to be the main "lesson learner" that takes something to excess so they can learn about it. It might have something to do with their personality, or it might not.The technology element they added in is pretty fun, I think the art is good compared to other modern CG cartoons, It's not too bad on it's own as a show. Miss Frizzle still does the Q&A at the end of the show, which is pretty fun.I don't think it really compares to the original show though. Still I hope they make more and improve on their formula a little.
