Summary: You guest it this is a great holiday movie
Review: Some like it colored and some don't. Ether way this based on a 1903 Victor Herbert operetta, film and is still fun to watch.
Now the basic plot is to keep Mother Peep's (Florence Roberts) shoe from being closed on by Silas Barnaby (Henry Brandon) when this fails Bo Peep has to marry Barnaby to keep the shoe. Now to keep Little Bo Peep from Barnaby. It involves Barnaby being tricked into marrying Stanley Dum in Bo Peep's place. Naturally Barnaby can not be fooled long and must have his revenge by letting lose the bogeymen from their caverns to destroy Toyland.

Summary: Stan and Ollie in Glorious Black and White!
Review: Thanks to the folks at Passport Video, we finally have an uncut black-and-white DVD of the Laurel and Hardy classic "March of the Wooden Soldiers" (1934). For purists who detest the "colorized" version, the Passport disc is a must-own. Transferred from a high-quality 35mm print, the DVD looks and sounds great -- far superior to Hallmark's recent botch on "Sons of the Desert." As a special bonus, Passport has included the historic "Lucky Dog," a 1921 short that marked Laurel's first appearance with Hardy (who plays a villainous role). Stan and Ollie fans will not be disappointed with this long-overdue release.

Summary: Great fun for the ENTIRE family
Review: The GREATEST comedy team in movie history,STAN LAUREL & OLIVER HARDY, star in this whimiscal, musicl fairy tale base on Vicotr Hubert's famed 1903 operetta 'BABES IN TOYLAND'. The boys portray 'STANNIE DUM & OLLIE DEE', hapless employees of Toyland's toy factory, who room in 'MOTHER PEEP'S'shoe. Faced with eviction by the evil 'SILAS BARNABY',our heros' plan to get the money from the 'TOYMASTER' goes awry. It seems that Santa Claus ordered 600 wooden soldiers at 1 foot high. But as fate would have it -STANNIE took the order and the end result is 100 wooden soldiers at 6 foot high. As with all the other films that i have reviewed, I also have this movie in my video library collection. I STRONGLY suggest and urge all buyers and viewers to order this timeless classic for their own video library collection.

Summary: Okay movie
Review: The movie is great and it brings back a lot of memories but the only thing that really ruins is the that they colorized it. I to see the original that was black and white and true to the movie. I know that there people waiting out there for that version to come out. I know that I am.

Summary: A true Classsic!
Review: The original is a classic film, one to please generation after generation. It may not have all the high tech effects but it is sure to draw the viewer in & hold their attention! The innocence of the time, the storyline will endear children & adult alike. I prefer the B/W version which was a Thanksgiving tradition when I was growing up. I hope you enjoy this timeless movie as much as I have & still do!

Summary: Original please!
Review: The pleasure of new formats like DVD is to provide the original, remastered versions of classic films. This film was originally "Babes in Toyland", and featured more music and longer scenes. American Movie Classics aired the original in BLACK AND WHITE, and it was a great experience. Release this classic in it's original cut and in BLACK AND WHITE, clear and crisp, the way it originally was. Do they colorize the beginning and the end of the "Wizard of OZ"?

Summary: "I Don't Love 'im!"
Review: There are two versions offered for sale at Amazon. The Koch Vision Entertainment version, despite the description in the technical details, is NOT COLORIZED. The Goodtimes Home Video version version IS colorized. Which you prefer is entirely up to you, but don't order the Koch Vision version if you want the movie in color. The Koch Vision version has an extended silent film extra of the first time Laurel and Hardy appeared together (NOT as a team, however). The extra is interesting, but (by today's standards anyhow) a little slow. The Goodtimes Entertainment (Colorized) version, although a few cents cheaper than the other version, is, in my opinion, a much "cleaner" print. Even with the color level turned down so it appears as the original B&W, the Goodtimes version is sharper and more distinct. March of the Wooden Soldiers, holds up pretty well.
