ShangLuda Admirable film.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
azbrewer03 When I first heard the plot for "Wakko's Wish", I was a bit skeptical at first. It sounded like a typical kid's flick- the kind of movie where the parents are busy and the kids need to be babysat by Uncle Television for a while. But, being a fan of "Animaniacs", I decided to give it a watch. The film's lead star is Wakko, who is worried at the fact that his sister, Dot, is ill with an unknown disease, and he and his brother, Yakko, do not have any money for treatment. Feeling desperate, Wakko wishes on a star, resulting in having a fairy come down and tell him that he has selected the one and only wishing star, and that the first person to touch the star will get one wish granted. Now, the entire town is racing to get to the wishing star first. The film's music, animation, and voice acting is great, but it seams that the main problem with this film is that it doesn't quite capture the spirit of "Animaniacs". The characters' personalities are different, and it has some very touching moments that the series lacked, which I actually enjoyed. There are a couple cute little scenes of sibling love with the siblings, particularly with Yakko and Dot. In short, Wakko's Wish is a nice little film, but I wouldn't watch it unless you are a fan of "Animaniacs."
La Gremlin "Animaniacs" was a cartoon that always struck me as good but highly inconsistent. At any given time there were at least two dozen characters on the show. Each of them starred in their own segments. Some of them worked, some of them didn't. And some of them fell flat.This problem is finally eliminated in "Wakko's Wish". All of the characters, good (the Warners, Pinky and the Brain), bad (the Goodfeathers, the Hip Hippos), and pointless (Chicken Boo) are involved in this one major story. The story is a tad sentimental for an "Animaniacs" movie but they have a lot of fun parodying the expected cliches as they go along. Check it out, it's a lot of fun. And it's got "Tiny Toons: Summer Vacation" beat by miles.
wbarchivist A must for animation fans, the new Animaniacs movie offers music, humor, and wit for viewers of all ages. Adults and teens will enjoy the humor, and the kids will eat up the slapstick. Don't pass up this wonderful conclusion to the Animaniacs saga - it's too much fun to miss!
Top Nerd Superficially similar to the Animaniacs TV series, but not nearly as funny, creative or insightful. The music (normally a highlight of the Animaniacs) is contrived and slipshod. Young children might find this entertaining, but I was hoping for much more.
