  3. I’ve never seen it on TV, but my mother rented it once on VHS for me and my siblings years ago. I liked it. Your 5 year old might be confused by or just ignore all of the Nazis in the movie though. That movie was definitely directed at another generation =]

    My family went to the drive-in to see this, and I remember how all of us enjoyed it so much. Years later, I saw it on TV and remained impressed by its cleverness and not-too-bad animation.

    A couple of weeks ago, I was able to watch about the first 45 minutes and wished that I had taped the whole thing to watch all together. What truly amazed me was how vividly I recalled all of it! I remembered what the fish looked like, including Mr. Limpet and Ladyfish; the sound he makes; and so much more. I plan to watch for it and think that this is one that parents and children can watch together without the adults wishing they were elsewhere.

    I’m sure your child is going to enjoy it very much.

    NOTE: Why should the bad guys be confusing? They’ll show up in other movies later, including “Raiders of the Lost Ark”. Children become familiar with much of the world and history through animated films first, perhaps more in the past than in the present-day. So many films made in the past 20 years or so are very anachronistic, which confuses many children and the adults they become. Today, someone actually thought that Hippies and rock ‘n’ roll were around in 1948! What we need is a sense of history.

  8. We loved that movie. Don Knotts is so talented!! Did you see him in the “Ghost and Mr. Chicken.” We laughed ourselves silly! I don’t remember what year it came out, but that was when we first saw it. “The Apple Dumpling Gang” is another one with Don and Tim Conway. Hilarious. Great Quesiton!
    It brought back some really good memories!!
