Movie Reviews of The Little House on the Prairie
Movie Review: VERY GOOD DEPICTION OF PIUONEER LIFE.
Summary: 4 Stars
I was never a big fan of the original T.V. series. And I picked this off the shelf at our library on a lark. But I enjoyed it very much. Indeed, I watched it several times before I had to return it.
Two things stood out. First, I think the series gave an excellent depiction of the heartache and risks of pioneer life. And I was very impressed with the young actress who played Laura, Lyle Chavarria. She was excellent as the plucky tomboy and also adorable with her lisp.
Movie Review: visualy stunning and better than the show
Summary: 5 Stars
This 4 hour miniseries is a delight to watch. it is way better than the show and all the actors give good performances. but the reason to watch it is it's beautifull scenery and it's good cineamatograpy.Movie Review: Excellent Film, but lacking in some areas!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
As many, I have grown up on Michael Landon's "Little House" and have read all of the "Little House" books written by Laura Inagalls Wilder.
The original television series of the 1970s and 1980s was good, with a homey and warmth of family feeling to it, but strayed more and more from the actual writings of the LIW books as time went on.
This ABC/Disney version of "Little House On The Prairie" is much more closer to the actual books than any of the previous TV shows of the past. However, this 6 hours mini-series was not all completely accurate, and some of the camera shots could have filmed been better. But all in all, it is a very good program and well worth adding to your collection.
The acting by Kyle Chavarria and Danielle Ryan Chuchran was excellent, along with several of the other cast members. No, it is not Michael Landon with his Hollywood looking Charles Ingalls, but alot closer to the real Charles Ingalls as played by Cameron Bancroft in this version. This DVD gives you a more realistic insight as to how the pioneers actually lived back in those times, and the hardships and the family values that are rare to find in modern day time.
Get this DVD, you will enjoy it!!!!
Movie Review: Very enjoyable, buy it!
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this DVD because I have all the original seasons on dvd now. This was highly entertaining & I enjoyed every minute. Picture quality is superb, the story is as the original in many ways. Acting is excellent, if your a "Little House" fan you'll love this set. I would like to see more episodes made. This DVD set makes you feel good about life.Movie Review: Disappointing!!
Summary: 3 Stars
I've just watched Disney's new release: Little House on The Praire, because I have been reading the books to them.
I was very happy that Disney put a series out, because you are usually guaranteed a well directed and powerful acting if Disney is behind it.
However I was very disappointed in a few things. First of all they did not "stick" the actual story that Laura Ingals wrote, and I think that is an insult to Laura Ingal's herself!! She was a wonderful woman and pioneer, who took the time and huge effort to make these stories available to our children of today. We could at least keep to the story.
Also, I must say that some of the acting was very poor. Erin Cotrell needs to learn how to act. You can TELL she is acting, and it doesn't look genuine.
PLEASE!!! Stick to the real story that Miss Laura wrote!!! I believe it's important to teach our children History of little girls in our past!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My children were also disappointed. After reading the books, the movie was a bit of a let down for them.
