Movie Reviews of Miss Spider's Sunny Patch Kids
Movie Review: "We Have to Be Good to Bugs --- All Bugs"
Summary: 5 Stars
"Miss Spider's Sunny Patch Kids," based on David Kirk's book by the same name, is a touching introduction to the land of Sunny Patch for all fans of Miss Spider and her little buglings.
Miss Spider and Holley are two lovebugs and the special begins with their marriage. Spiderus, however, is a carnivorous spider who is jealous of their romance and wants Miss Spider for himself. As he stews, everyone celebrates, until a chicken shows up. They manage to chase out the chicken and the fun resumes, but what they don't realize is that the chicken has left behind an egg.
Miss Spider and Holley settle into life together and eventually, Miss Spider lays eggs. She's excited about becoming a mother, but she's nervous too. She was adopted as a little spiderling by Betty Beetle. Since her adopted Mom really knew nothing about raising a baby spider, she basically had to make it up as she went along. Betty, however, assures her that she'll be a great Mom.
Miss Spider and Holley hatch five little spiders --- Squirt, Wiggle, Spinner and the twins Pansy and Snowdrop. They all soon grow into spirited little kids and Squirt is perhaps the most-spirited of them all. When the kids discover the egg that the chicken left behind, Squirt decides that he needs to return it to his mother, even if in entails danger. On his adventure, he discovers several new friends.
"Miss Spider's Sunny Patch Kids" is a delightful special that teaches kindness, bravery and friendship. Fans of the series will delight at learnng the genesis of their buggy friends now seen daily on television and in many books. This special is the only "Miss Spider" release by MGM Kids and the only one to star Brooke Shields as the voice of Miss Spider. In the TV show and future specials, Kristin Davis takes over as the voice of Miss Spider.
P.S.: I don't think this film is too scary for little kids. Compared to some of the fare that is out there, the content of this film isn't remotely scary, although, naturally, anyone with a strong fear of spiders might want to avoid it. Other than that, this film is really cute, with occasional scenes of peril, but nothing that anyone older than about three-or-four would probably be too terrified by (and I do believe the intended target audience is probably older preschool to those beginning school and their parents. Oh, and any fan of quality animation.)
