This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
View MoreThis is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
View MoreOne of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
View MoreThe movie really just wants to entertain people.
This show is very fun to watch. Goldie and Bear go on exciting adventures with characters that you will recognize from your own childhood fairytales. This show is easy to follow and the storylines are fun to follow. The songs are very catchy and fun to sing! It's a great twist on classic characters.
View MoreAs I sit here watching a Goldie and Bear episode for the 100th time, I figured I'd write a review for other parents. My 17 month old daughter has been obsessed with this show for the past two months. My husband and I know the dialog and sing the songs to each other at this point. I'll wake up with the songs in my head. They're catchy.As kids' shows go, this isn't a bad one to watch repeatedly. It's fun and upbeat. I enjoy most of the characters. I'm pleased to see two main characters of each gender instead of the standard boy lead in most children's shows. There's nothing I'd consider questionable or objectionable. The writers twist traditional fairy tale stories for their own purposes so don't expect historical or literary accuracy. Don't expect rational plots either. This is meant to be a fun show to entertain kids and tell simple morality stories as well.My husband and I are actually excited for season 2 to be released. Mostly because we'd like to see a new set of episodes 100 times. But also because it really is a decently entertaining show for parents stuck watching a show with their kids.
View MoreAfter famous fairy tales are written and adapted into many books, someone who likes those stories would combine them into one. That is the case of Goldie and Bear as it features characters from many well-known stories.When I saw ads for this show as well as seeing a few episodes, I was initially entertained. The graphics are quite colorful, and the way the characters are drawn are similar to what I see in children's story books.I do adore the characters in the show, especially Goldie. I like her trademarked hair, her blue dress, and best of all her cute pink mary janes. All the other characters are perfect, although the boy bear in a beige shirt with green sleeves could use a child actor to do his dialog.
View MoreWhile these may be a bit tame for kids 10 and over (absolutely no violence or psycho-tension), Parents (and GrandParents like me) will find these short animations (two separate 12 minute animations in each episode),a real treat to share with the younger set. We just spent 3 days with our 3 yr old GrandSon and he wanted me to keep repeating the episodes. When I thought he must be getting bored with them, I showed him the new Lion King series on Disney. He liked it, but wanted to go back to the Goldie and Bear animations. After just a couple of viewings, he was singing along with the songs. It is refreshing to find a children's series with "no agenda" other than a positive message through entertainment.
