Movie Reviews of 25th Birthday Musical Celebration
Movie Review: My son's favorite DVD!
Summary: 4 Stars
My son has had this DVD for two years now (he just turned three) and it's by far his favorite movie to watch. It's about 45 minutes jam-packed with Sesame Street goodness - counting, songs, favorite characters, etc. Yes, it's pretty dated - I think most of the songs came from 30-40 years ago, but it's still very cute! Mixed in with the songs and classic clips are scenes from Big Bird, Pairie Dawn and Telly making their own musical on a sunny day in the park. Highly recommended!
Summary of 25th Birthday Musical Celebration
Movie DVDYes, Virginia, there was a Sesame Street before the Age of Elmo. This 1993 collection highlights the role of music in the long-running series from Children's Television Workshop, and reminds us that such Jim Henson creations as Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch, Cookie Monster, and Ernie and Bert were once part of a true ensemble of Muppet superstars. Nothing against Elmo, of course: kids adore him and he makes enough appearances in this anthology (including the show-stopping "Happy Tappin' with Elmo") to keep today's tykes happy. Also included is Ernie's classic "Rubber Duckie" (really, who doesn't know the words to that?), Oscar's anthemic "I Love Trash," you-know-who's "C Is for Cookie," and Big Bird's Big Finale, a rendition of "Sing" that includes the entire cast. There are 27 tunes in all, and they don't all involve singing puppets: Ladysmith Black Mambazo turns up for one track, and the "Sesame Street Jam Session" includes some actual playing of instruments. --Tom Keogh
