Overrated
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
View MoreUnshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
View MoreYes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
View MoreI was fortunate enough to see this wonderful series on DVD the other day in a shop that was closing down, and seeing that it was reduced to half price, quickly grabbed 3 seasons of the show! As soon as I spotted the DVD's I had fond memories flashing back of how this great show with it's catchy theme and wonderful characters had captured my imagination as a child.When I came home and showed my partner, he too got excited, because he had fond memories of the show while he was growing up as well.Now we both have an excuse of watching this magical series again by letting our 3 year old son watch it as well. He's already loving it because he likes the fact that there's a character by the name of Diesel who's a car, and not many kids shows features cars.We recommend to anyone who has a young child to try to find this DVD and let them watch it, it's a real gem and a rare Australian production that is unforgettable and still great over time.
View Moreahh the memories i have of being a 5 year old and humming along to the theme song of this great show.The show is set in Michael's bedroom - Michael is a boy like any other but when Michael leaves his bedroom his toys come to life. Each episode focuses on the adventures, mischief and fun of the toys when they are alone.The toys are: Johnson, Michael's oldest toy, a pink stuffed elephant; McDuff, a blue and yellow accordion; Diesel, a red toy truck; Alfred, a green water bottle; Squeaky, a black and red robot; and Victoria the dinosaur. (from the abc website) you can't go past a show where toys come to life!
