Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

mahoraner niall words cannot even explain how boring, annoying, and just straight out awful this movie is. i was forced to watch this in third grade, And when i heard that the class was going to watch it again, i took a sick day because this is so terrible, But that didn't stop me from seeing the movie again. The teacher made me watch it on tape. I had my fingers over my ears the whole time. the voices sound worse than nails on a chalk board. they voices are all squeaky with a country accent.And the only reason i "remember" is 1, because it was so bad, and 2, i searched it on you tube to see if it was either my short 3rd grade temper, or that the movie was actually terrible. and the answer was that the movie is not terrible, but so annoying that you would rather do almost anything than watch this whole movie.Just stay away from this "movie", for your own mental state.

jai5012002 After her father's ship is carried off by a sudden storm, the spunky Pippi Longstocking is stranded with her horse, Alfonso, and monkey, Mr. Nilsson, and takes up residence in the old family home, which is thought by neighborhood children to be haunted. Soon, two children, Tommy and Annika, venture into the house only to meet up with Pippi. The three soon become friends and get into various adventures together, including cleaning the floor with scrubbing shoes, dodging the "splunks", going down a river in barrels, and helping Pippi with the problem of having to go to a children's home. Older children will probably get the most out of this movie.

kevin_s_scrivner I remember enjoying the Pipi Longstocking books in elementary school, and my 4-year-old loves this movie. As an adult, however, I find it painful to watch. It isn't that the movie is bad, at least not in the same sense that schlocky sci fi and horror movies are bad. The children do acceptable acting jobs, although the adult actors are lackluster. The sets, costumes, and special effects are adequate. The music is bouncy. There are lots of fun Pipi stunts and much childhood wish fulfillment. All good, clean fun. Somehow, though, the film is less than the sum of its parts.I think it must be the plotting and pacing. The super-competent Pipi so outmatches her opponents -- a villainous real estate agent and an uncompassionate human services worker -- that you never feel any suspense or concern for her safety. In fact, Pipi comes across as such a smart-mouthed brat that I began to sympathize with her playmates' whiny father. The story itself meanders from incident to unrelated incident until the movie positively drags.So, this is a movie that it is safe to let your kids watch unsupervised. That's a good thing, because you won't want to sit through it yourself, at least not more than once.

Tigger73 I myself grew up with the wonderful swedish Pippi movies(dubbed, I've seen them in dutch and in german), which are so popular that they are still repeated today. And I also know the books(infact I've read most of Astrid Lindgren's books, well the ones that where translated in dutch).Since those movies where made in the 70's I wondered what this movie would be like.Now I'm not the targeted agegroup anyomore, but I didn't like this version. Pippi was much too fake. Also everything seemed very fake come to think of it, it had none of the magic the origional films had.So if you've read the books and wanna see a film, please try and find the swedish ones they are great!
