Summary: THIS IS A VERY USEFUL VIDEO, INDEED.
Review: "Races, Rescues and Runaways" is a great video. The animation is more realistic than previous Thomas videos, it introduces new characters and Alec Baldwin's narration is much improved over the 1998 effort, "Thomas the Tank Engine: Cranky Bugs." More important, the kids love it, which makes it worth every penny!

Summary: A Must-See for the Little Thomas Addicts
Review: A Thomas fan once, a Thomas Fan for life--or that is how I feel about my son's favorite character. This collection of Thomas stories is great. A direct interpretation from the original stories, it brings the characters from the book alive. My son loves it.On a separate note, the live animation and lack of a lot of special effects is a refreshing change from a lot of the other kids movies out there. It lets kids' imagination to develop and that is why I think that my son watches this tape over and over and over....

Summary: Another Good Baldwin Narraration
Review: Another favorite of my son's collection. I think that the enthusiasm in Alec Baldwin's characters is what I like the best. My son (2.5) will sit through at least half of it in rapt attention. Plus nothing in the plot needs explanation! No "what" "whys" or "wheres" to handle!

Summary: Both my kids love it
Review: Both my son (4 years old) and daughter (2 years old) love this video. It is packed full of crashes and "scary" stories sure to delight all small children. It is by far the most watched Thomas video of our video library. A must have for all Thomas fans!

Summary: Scary to little ones
Review: I have a 21 mo old boy who loves to see Thomas & friends, however when a disaster happens he screams and becomes upset. I'll put this one away until he's much older. I think this is very disturbing for young ones!!

Summary: Not great but entertaining
Review: I've critized Alec Baldwin again and again but i'm sorry he's ruining great characters such as Percy and James. In my Thomas listmania I called Percy a whiner. Well I think he know is. In this one and then in Percy's Chocalte Crunch he whines about hard work. I mean some of them complain but he whines. That's just plain annoying. The best episode one this tape was probably the Lorry one and i'd like to point out the fact that Butch does not have a face. Bye George was just plain stupid. Oliver was good in his episode and I wish he'd have more of those. This tape is ok and it would be good for Thomas fans to have. Before you buy this one take a look at some of George Carlin's works first belive me their better.

Summary: Great and Cool!
Review: In this installment of Thomas and Friends, Alec Baldwin takes viewers on yet another set of Thomas adventures. My son is a huge fan of Thomas, and we watch his videos almost every day. This tape in particular has become one of his favorites. The first story especially grabs his attention due to the dam breaking during the flood, Toby floating helplessly past the sign that says "Beware the Waterfall", which my son has memorized by now, and the heroic rescue by Harold the helicopter. He also enjoys the story of the Lorries; three spunky little trucks which are supposed to replace the engines, but in the end its the Lorries who can't perform their work. As with other Thomas videos, this is just the right lenght to hold my son's interest without him becoming distracted. The stories are bright and cheerful, and Alec Baldwin makes an excellent narrator. I highly recommend the Thomas video series. Buy one or several of this series and enjoy them with your children. You might even learn something along the way!!

Summary: Too Scary!
Review: My almost 3 year old son adores Thomas, but these stories scared him and made him cry. He begged us to "skip" almost every story. I'm sorry we bought it.
