Babe: Pig in the City (1998)

Babe: Pig in the CityIt works on so many levels: animal protection, respect those who are different from you and learn from that, funny, sweet, sad, excellent cast and animal expressions and voices.

This movie looks like it was done by Fellini, Dali, Rube Goldberg, and George Miller. The most mind blowing spectacular fantasy fest you could ever want. If you thought Babe was wonderful, this will blow your mind totally. It is not the same kind of movie even though it has the same characters, plus some new ones and the farmer, James Cromwell, is only in it briefly while Magda Szubanski takes the lead and how wonderful she is. If you didn't get enough of her in Babe, this will totally be a treat as she is one of the most comedically talented actresses you could ever want with her roly poly cheeks and body and a scene where gallons of shellac gets dumped on her and, well, I won't ruin it for you, but what happens to her wardrobe after it dries will cause you to laugh so hard you may need adult diapers. And the city. You just will not believe this city. It's a composite of every famous city in the world with all the most picturesque buildings and architectural structures from every famous from Paris to New York, maybe even San Francisco or Seattle. This is not only a fantasy, it is also an art film and unlike art films you will not be bored for an instance. Loved this movie and though I saw it many years ago, I always wind up watching it at least once a year, or when ever I see that it's showing on HBO. Oh, yes. I also forgot to say, this film is made with love and there are loads of lovely sentiments expressed throughout. You may also need a Kleenex with those adult diapers.

I knew that even though the story leaves much to be desired, I truly do enjoy the visual effects of this film. I was really hoping that this film would be great to watch in High-Definition but this Blu-Ray release doesn't really look any much better than my DVD. It still looks like that rather mild blurring that only a higher quality DVD could deliver.

Well, at least it wasn't too expensive. The first "Babe" film on blu-ray looks a great deal sharper in High Definition than this one. And, I am grateful for that.

Babe was a truly wonderful film with a heartfelt message that resounded at the conclusion of the film. Babe: Pig in the City is a madcap departure from that storyline. This might seem to be a disservice to some; however, the light hearted lunacy of this film will win over all but the most heavily encrusted of curmudgeons. Dressed up like a kid's movie this is truly an enjoyable film for all ages. Long live Ferdinand!
