Summary: I Remember This!!
Review: I think this movie is the one I've been looking for! When I was little I saw a movie about a girl, a kangaroo, and a whale. From the picture it looks just like what I remember, but there is no whale. Maybe its in the movie some where. But the movies great. It just goes to show that what you show your kids when their little stays with them till they are my age...

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great movie. But could have been better...
Review: I thought that this was a great movie... I watched it 3 times last night and cried every time... Could have been much better if it was a restored print. Even having some background on how the movie was actually done would have been neat to see.

I thought that this movie was a brakthrough film long before Roger Rabbit. It was like Pete's Dragon in a way... An animal helping it's human friend get out of trouble...

The scenes where she cares for the kangaroo were touching.. Even when the kangaroo went home I cried like crazy... It touches on feelings that people experience when a good friend leaves..

I have fond memories of little Dot finding her way home and even after all these years, I still cry... Great little film, but it could have gotten better treatment on the DVD format...

Summary: I remember this!
Review: I used to watch this movie all the time when I was a kid, and it's cool to see it's on DVD now. I have not seen it in probably over 15 years but even now I still remember some of the songs. A word of warning though, the Bunyip is scary! When my friend would come over and we'd be watching he would always be really scared when the bunyip song came on so if your child scares easily you should skip that part of the DVD. I also remember how Dot calls for the kangaroo to come back at the end and it just hops away. Very sad :( Other than that, great movie :)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I LOVE THIS MOVIE
Review: I USED TO WATCH THIS MOVIE WHEN I WAS A KID ALL THE TIME. IT'S BEEN ABOUT 15 YEARS SINCE THE LAST TIME I SAW IT. I REMEMBER EVERY TIME I WATCHED IT I WOULD CRY. IT WAS REALLY SAD AT THE END, BUTI THINK IT'S A GREAT MOVIE. I AM SO HAPPY I FINALLY FOUND IT ON DVD I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR THIS MOVIE EVERYWHERE. IT IS A LITTLE SCARY, KIDS 5 YEARS AND OLDER WOULD APPRECIATE IT MORE THAN YOUNGER KIDS AND NOT BE SCARED. YOUR KID WILL LOVE IT AS I DO.

Summary: OMG!! I cant't believe it's here!
Review: I was planning on buying a used vhs on ebay. Then they bring it onto DVD! This is a movie I remember since I was 4. Hopefully they will release Dot and Whale, along with the others in this series. A wonderful movie for children or those young at heart!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: long lost movie
Review: i watched this movie as a child when it came on tv. I remember wanting to "rewind" the tv so i could watch it again. This is certainly one of the best children's movies out there, though i haven't watched it in ages. I am going to buy a copy on DVD for my children (and myself). I had completely forgotten the title of the movie and had spent about 2 years searching on the internet for what it might be. I just remembered that it was part-animated, and had a kangaroo, a girl, a platypus, and some caveman drawings. When i finally happened upon the actual movie, i was ecstatic... and then to find out that it is available on dvd :)

You can't go wrong with this movie

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A MUST HAVE!
Review: My daughter grew up with this movie as one of her favorites. It is a true classic. I am delighted to know that it is being re-released.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Beware of the Ending!
Review: My daughter loves kangaroos and so we thought this would be the perfect DVD for her. The story was okay, but the characters seemed flat. The voice of Dot was highly whiney and irritating! But the worst part was at the end, the kangaroo hops away while Dot is crying for her to come back! The end! Oh my gosh! My 6 year spent two nights straight sobbing into her pillow because she felt sad about the kangaroo! If your child is at all sensitive, I recommend watching it before having them watch. If you can sit through the whiney high pitched Dot!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I love it!
Review: Ok, well basically I loved this movie and the rest of the Dot movies when I was little and have been searching for them for ages. The DVD has great graphics and has a very clear picture. As a big fan of the movie I think the DVD is great!
