MY THOUGHTS:

My 4 year old is obsessed with this movie!  We have a bunch of other Thomas & Friends DVDs but this one is his favorite.  I have read a few reviews on it and people have said it is scary, but my 3 and 4 year old love it.  I guess it could be a little scary to young kids because the Diesel trains are portrayed as bad guys and there is that scary music in the background, but that’s about it.  The DVD is a movie so it is not a bunch of short episodes either which makes it fun to watch.

The movie is about Percy feeling left out and joining the Diesel trains at the Dieselworks.  They make him feel special and convince him to help him take over the Sodor Steamworks.  It is a great lesson for kids that they shouldn’t hang out with the bad kids just for attention or because they feel left out.  The Diesels were actually using Percy and trying to make Percy turn against his true friends.  Most of the other Thomas movies feature little lessons or troubles, and this movie really has a plot to it!  We were routing for Percy to realize Thomas was really his friend!  The other awesome thing about this movie is the two new firefighting engines – Flynn and Belle are in it and they of course have a fire to put out!  Then there is Kevin the crane in the movie that was neat too.  So if your kids are like mine and like trains, trucks (cranes), and fire engines then this movie will surely be a hit!
