| Lioness921's Full Review: Hugga Bunch |
I remember seeing this movie when I was little..in fact, I think it's in my vcr cabinet somewhere. Maybe I'll go look for it later. Anyway, Hugga Bunch is an adorable story for young kids - it's really sweet.
Basically, this movie revolves around a family. The grandmother and granddaughter are extremely close. They're always hugging, because hugs seem to solve everything for them. The little girl finds out that her grandma is moving away, into an old age home I believe. The little girl (I'm sorry I can't seem to recall her name) gets very upset and goes to her room.
The girl then hears noises coming from her bedroom closet mirror, and these adorable Huggabunches puppets come out of her closet. They decide to help the girl, and take her to HugginLand, where the puppets live. The puppets believe that the only way to prevent her grandma from leaving home is to make her young again. After singing some cute songs that are catchy for younger kids, they go and talk to the all knowing all seing bookworm. Yes, thats a worm puppet, in a field of big, larger than life books. The worm says that the girl must go to the evil witch's castle and take some of the special tomato like fruits back to her grandma - that is what has kept the witch so young --but don't let them touch the floor, or the fruits will disappear. It's a long journey, with perils and choices that they must all make along the way. These young puppets and the child must face some of their fears, and learn from each other in the process.
This is a great movie for young kids because it teaches them about their love for family members. It's also just a sweet story of how the simple act of hugging can brighten a person's day.
