The Little Rascals

Summary: Not bad, but no match for the original
Review: When Spanky McFarland was asked if they should remake "Our Gang", he said no because he felt they got it right the first time. Wise man, that Spanky. While this is not bad for children or adults, why not just buy the originals instead? Basically all they've done here was take several of the original films, such as "Mail and Female" and "Rushin' Ballet", and string them together as a movie. Another problem I had was the clash of time periods - the characters dress like the originals and engage in the same types of activities, yet the film obviously takes place in the 1990's. Children simply don't build go-carts or wear bowties anymore. Why not just fully update the gang into the 1990's or make this a period piece instead? At best, this is a colorful, cute and lively romp, but nothing more.

Summary: 5 stars according to my son!
Review: While the original Little Rascals was outstanding, this new version is pretty cute, too. My 5 yr. old son absolutely loves it (he watches it at least once a day!). And it's kid-friendly. I don't have to worry about any objectionable material that often occurs in so-called children's movies. Sure, it's formulaic, but the movie doesn't pretend to be anything more than it is--a fun-filled kids' movie.
