The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland Reviews

Love the creativity of the puppetry and the sweet message. Made for very small children but enough bonkers elements for adults to tolerate

Sesame Street fans will love this sweet movie.

The character is bereft of subtlety, the lessons are simple, loud, and clear, and there is a suprising dearth of comedy.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 8, 2003

Good fun for the single digit aged set!

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Dec 10, 2002

The film is nothing if not benign, but its merits are moot for those above 7 or so.

How does it end? With a headache, of course, from all those cheering children.

Kids who love Barney or the Muppets will undoubtedly feel right at home.

| Original Score: 74/100 | Feb 14, 2001

| Original Score: B | Jan 1, 2000

The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland won't tickle anyone much above the age of 6.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 1, 2000

It's difficult for even the cynic in the audience to resist giggling at the sight of a grown man and a tiny-voiced Muppet arguing whether or not the Blanket an entire film has been built around should be called "Wubby" instead.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

Remains faithful to the essence of Sesame Street.

| Original Score: B- | Jan 1, 2000

Most patient adults may want to strangle the impish Elmo within the first 10 minutes of this movie.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

Older kids weaned on Sesame Street might get a kick of nostalgia at the sight of Big Bird, Maria, the Count and all.

It's all very innocent.

| Jan 1, 2000

Strictly for those who are currently watching the PBS series: that is, the preschool/kindergarten audience.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 1, 2000
