Movie Reviews of Kipper: Puppy Love
Movie Review: Deep in the middle of the dark, dark woods...
Summary: 4 Stars
A collection of six short stories, none of which are on previous DVDs.
1. Nothing Ever Happens
Kipper is thoroughly bored, and begins entertaining himself (dangerously in my honest opinion) playing on the stairs and stacking toys and chairs to climb up to the attic. He finds a top hat, but doesn't notice the accompanying magic wand. Going out to play in the rain with Tiger, he misses out on what could have been a fun day.
This one is pretty boring.
2. Tiger's Torch
Tiger shows off his new torch, and he and Kipper decide to go camping in the woods. Tiger proves to be a first class scaredy cat, but the camp fire scary story begins wonderfully. "Deep in the middle of the dark, dark woods, there lived a horrible, horrendous, terrible, tremendous...."
Best story in this DVD.
3. Pig's Shop
Pig gives the phrase "free tasting" a whole new meaning at his sweet stall. Not having any money, Kipper and Tiger persuade him to accept a barter arrangement.
A nice example of what happens when you eat too many sweets.
4. Cousins
Mouse, a new speaking character, moves in with Kipper and soon his cousins show up uninvited to wreck Kipper's house
With its annoying new characters without redeeming features, this one drags on far too long.
5. The Key
More mice, this time one mechanical and one real. Fun with a clockwork mouse.
This one is okay, despite the annoying mouse.
6. The Missing Tape Mystery
It's Arnold's birthday, and he gets a cassette player from Pig. Unfortunately, the music cassette can't be found, until Detective Tiger takes over. Before you can say "flashback" the mystery is solved.
Second best story on the DVD, but a little long.
This one may not hold the attention of younger children for very long, but at least has some new concepts and characters. Three and one half stars.

Movie Review: Freeze-frame fun
Summary: 3 Stars
Nothing Ever Happens
- The face Kipper makes on his window
- Hippo falling down the stairs
- Kipper's toy tower
- Kipper's frightened ears when the torch turns on
- The stuff in the attic
- A bin
- The toy tower falling
- Kipper hanging
- In the scene with Kipper getting caught by the bin lid, in one frame when Kipper hits the ground, a dead fish is on the bottom of the screen before flicking into a circle with numbers on it. This could be a storyboard or script cue of some sort.
- The magic wand falling down.
- The rain in the background
- The bunnies popping up
- Kipper and Tiger through the window
Movie Review: Not the best Kipper!
Summary: 3 Stars
We have several Kipper's but this one just doesnt hold my littlies interest like some of the others (Pools, parks and picnics, Cuddly critters etc). Even to me as an adult, it seems to drag a little and I havent watched it all the way through.
Also there is a part where Kipper and friend are in a tent and think there is a monster outside, it doesnt bother my 2 yr old but my older child thought it was a little creepy.
My advice - choose first from one of the other delightful Kippers.
