Movie Reviews of Toby Tyler
Movie Review: A wonderful movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
Toby Tyler is a wonderful movie. It was my husband's favorite when he was a child. I wanted to see it to share that experience with him. I was not expecting to enjoy it so much. It is very well done, not "hokey" like so many old movies. The story and the acting are great. We rented it when our grandchildren were visiting (boy age 13, girl age 11). They thoroughly enjoyed it! We bought it because they wanted me to bring it when I visited them and we have other grandchildren who are waiting to see it. I highly recommend Toby Tyler. It's just good, clean, well done fun!Movie Review: A lost classic
Summary: 5 Stars
Based on an 1880 children's novel, this captivating 95-minute drama is nostalgic but never gets too cute. Star Kevin Corcoran is likable, while other characters have surprising depth. Modern audiences will find the pace slow, sort of like an episode of the 1970s television series The Waltons. For the most part picture quality is great, audio OK. The bare-bones DVD has no bonus features.Movie Review: Toby Tyler
Summary: 5 Stars
This Walt Disney movie has never had the exposure it deserves. I think that any of us who first saw it as young children in 1960, immediately wanted to run away to join the circus as young Toby did.
It is colourful, exciting in parts and always entertaining. Toby shows us that you can achieve anything if you really want to. He goes from being a lowly concessionaire to a star turn for the circus in just 10 weeks. The antics of Mr Stubbs the chimpanzee will have you laughing out loud often.
This is a movie for the young and young at heart, I love it!
Movie Review: Toby Tyler
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this movie to entertain my grandchildren when they stay overnight. They LOVE it! It is an old Disney movie which I had never seen, but my grandson is wild about monkeys and chimps and I thought it would keep him happy. Not only did he love it, but his younger sister does too. While they are staying with me we have to watch it over and over again! Disney stories are always great for kids, but this one reminds me of MY childhood when times were simpler and much more innocent. Lots of circus scenes, elephants, horses,clowns, high wire acts. Perfect for young and old!Movie Review: Regarding the Aspect Ratio of this DVD...
Summary: 5 Stars
For those 1 and 2 star reviewers that think that "Disney is screwing you over" by releasing this in a "Full Screen" format, it should be pointed out that the original aspect ratio of this movie is 1.37:1. While it is technically cropped to 1.33:1, no Academy Aspect film is ever release in true 1.37:1 format.
That means full screen is the most correct format for this film.
It was never wide screen.
Anyway, an excellent movie. One of Kevin Corcoran's better roles.
