Babe was a runaway success in 1995. It even got a best describe nomination and in my mind should have won. This is a improbable movie, obvious to delight children from 2-100. Chris Noonan has created the fresh farmyard parable. He deftly brings you into his world of talking animals centered around that most amicable of pigs, Babe. While the sheepdogs rule the farm, Babe warms the heart of sheep and dog alike, and eventually farmer Hoggett noteworthy to the chagrin of his wife who is counting the days to the next ample feast. Ultimately Babe is spared as farmer Hoggett comes to realize he has a most novel pig on his hands. Babe finds himself welcomed into the fold, rising to the ultimately space of being able to approach into the house on depressed nights, at the expense of the house cat. All these animals are played wonderfully off each other. The voices couldn’t be better. Farmer Hoggett eventually puts Babe to the ultimate challenge, the immense sheepherding competition, which brings out a raucous reaction from the crowd. But Babe soon silences them. This movie has everything one could want in a children’s movie and more. It deserves its status among the classics of all time.

Several previous reviewers are dead-on. Babe, is of course, a clever, droll, touching movie. It’s one of the few movies that I and my 3-year faded can both like over and over. But the marketing jerks at Universal have seen fit to force several lengthy advertisements on you every time you try to scrutinize the movie. What’s more, they’ve coded them to be non-skippable, so you MUST sit through them every time you want to search for the movie (you can speedy forward, but you can’t skip over them) . This is offensive and intrusive in any dvd you’ve purchased (and arguably counterfeit as it’s not disclosed on the package), but it’s even worse with a movie like Babe that’s targeted largely at kids. First, it illustrates that Universal has outright contempt for parents’ rights to settle what types of films are, or are not, appropriate for their kids. Second, if you have a cramped child who really wants to peek Babe (or whatever), it’s difficult for them to understand why they should have to sit through 15 minutes of Universal’s marketing crap before the movie starts (something that’s not apt with numerous other children’s DVD’s) . Shame, shame Universal. I’d succor you to rent, download, pirate, or borrow this DVD rather than buying it, at least until Universal ceases its offensive, dishonest marketing tactics.
