Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey

My little one really enjoys this movie! The music is catchy and the storyline is fun, fast paced and I can definitely relate to Ted trying to wrangle his toddlers, I mean animals day to day! Definitely recommend!

I bought this and Curious George 3 at the same time because they both aired on PBS last week. My oldest just started school so he had to miss them and this was a "reward" for making it through his first ever week of school. I had only promised him the 3rd movie, but it seemed so strange to have the 1st and 3rd movies without the 2nd one, so this made it into the cart as well. It was a good thing, too! The kids ended up liking this one better than Curious George 3. Although both movies are entertaining, this one has a part where George is teased by the "bad guy" and George ends up getting what he wants... basically because he's a monkey. For some reason, the kids LOVE that part. They laugh like crazy and ask how George did it.The "bad guy" isn't really a bad guy but more of a guy that you just REALLY don't like because he does everything bad and uses inaccurate or incomplete information to make a bad decision.The voice of Ted is back to Jeff Bennett which is the voice in the tv shows (not the voice in the first movie which was Will Ferrell). For me, that is good because I like the voice played in the tv show and have come to know it as "the man in the yellow hat". For the kids, I don't think they really care.It was a little weird seeing Ted put work ahead of George, though, and although the story line was trying to teach kids about the importance of loved ones, etc., I don't know if my kids completely understood the reasoning of why Ted was even preoccupied with work to begin with. (My kids are pretty young.) The journey was fun and entertaining, though, which is what I was expecting from the movie. There really wasn't anything scary in it for the kids (although I was very surprised at the scene with Ted chasing after the train... the kids seemed to expect a happy result so they weren't shocked in the least)... and obviously you don't have to worry about bad words or inappropriate scenes. So... good movie overall.

My toddler loves this movie

I bought this movie for my autistic daughter who loves George. She prefers to watch the dvd for some reason. Works well and would purchase again from seller.

This is a really good kid's movie.In the first movie, The Man With The Yellow hat's voice is done by Will Ferrell, and in this one it is done by the same voice as the PBS series. I think it is better that that way for the sake of continuity.As for the Man's behavior, isn't it only appropriate that he is stressed out over his current work situation and the fact that his monkey wandered off with an elephant on a train headed for California? Kids see us (adults) handle life's stress and can relate to how George feels as he has to deal with the Man's stress. I don't think he lashes out at George or "freaks" out any more then the average, NORMAL, adult.My three-year-old has watched this movie over a hundred times and has never once asked me about what kidnapping or murder is, but when he does, I will respond with the truth, since these things do happen in real life, why not deal with it when the source is a harmless movie?In response to the "talentless band" who preforms the music for this movie, I think they are great. The songs are appropriate for the feeling of each scene and are really very good. So they aren't "mainstream" but they are good.Over all, I think this is a wonderful movie for any child who enjoys the PBS series.

Though this coloring book is single pages rather than double sided, it was still good quality. Hard to find curious george coloring books, I'd order it again.

I would like to say I LOVE this movie and i probably did the first 10 times i HAD to watch it but now i try to hide the DVD. I bought this movie for my 2yr old and it was an instant hit her previouse favorite movie (Dispicable Me) went back on the shelf and now she will not watch anything else but "geoge". What I really loved about the DVD is that I'm trying to teach only spanish to my daughter and this video has the spanish track so it was perfect for me. She has watched this movie so much that the disk is already scratched so I will be ordering a new one soon. It's the perfect little story, she loves George, Kayla and all their "travesuras" (Mischief) I would definitely recomend this DVD to anyone looking to entertain their little ones. Just a word of caution my daughter loves to imitate George so she goes around the house acting like a monkey! lol ENJOY!!

It is a straight to DVD stand-alone 2009 sequel to Curious George. Such a cute movie. Even I enjoy watching it repeatedly. The characters are cute and I like that the songs are easy to listen too and pleasant to listen too. Some of the fast-moving train scenes present some perilous moments, but what would a road-trip movie be without a little taste of adventure? The Man with the Yellow Hat falls from a cliff (but is saved by an elephant). More peril when characters parachute from a plane; nobody is hurt. There are some themes of abandonment and separation from family, but everyone is brought together for a happy ending. What I especially appreciate about the movie is the positive messages it portrays about the importance of family and friends.

Perfect condition my son loves this movie

Really pleased superb

Nous avons déjà vu le film a la tv il y a 2 ans et a l'époque mon fils de 3 ans était un grand fan de Georges. Aujourd'hui, je l'ai commandé pour ma fille de 2 ans et elle aussi, elle est tombée sous le charme du petit singe.Pour une fois, tous les deux sont d'accord sur le choix du film! Je suis ravie de cet achat et je trouve cela dommage qu'il y a si peu de versions françaises de Georges curieux en DVD.

Süsser Film, aber leider nicht auf Deutsch abspielbar. Aber wir haben ihn auf Englisch geschaut und es war trotzdem für unseren Sohn ein Spaß, er meinte: "Coco spricht ja die Sprache wie immer" :-DP.S.: Auf der "A very monkey christmas" DVD ist Deutsch verfügbar

息子がおさるのジョージが好きなので、購入してみました。他にも英語のDVDを見せていたせいもあるかもしれませんが、英語だというのに、最後まで飽きもせず観ていられています。今、４歳なので耳が良く育つ６歳まで、意味はわからずとも英語に触れさせておこうと思っています。
