Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Dotbankey A lot of fun.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
mwcrunner This movie is one of the many very good films of my childhood. Although there were a couple of parts that used to scare me as kid like when the air conditioner lost his temper and then goes into a meltdown and is completely broken cause the master was always playing with Toaster and the other appliances. Good thing the master fixes him later when he drops by the cabin to get the appliances but discovered they were gone and the air conditioner realizes that the master did care for it just like the master cared for Toaster and the other appliances. Another scene in this movie that really scared the heck out of me was the dream scene where Toaster is with the master again and the master is making toast when all of a sudden, the other piece of toast starts to burn in Toaster and all the black smoke builds up and forms up a giant hand and grabs the master and takes him away from Toaster right out the kitchen door. Then what came next and that really scared me was this evil demon like firefighter clown. His eyes were red, his nose was green, his teeth were ugly and rotten, and he had a hose in one hand and a fork in the other. Those are a toasters 2 weaknesses. The clown also tells the Toaster in a sinister whispering voice with smokey breath to run. Toaster starts running and the clown fires his hose at him and the waves from the hose turn into forks and then Toaster finds himself hanging above a bathtub filled with water while the clown is heard laughing and its just like the Jokers laugh. The Toaster then falls into the bathtub and then wakes up from the horrible nightmare. Yep that scene will always be one of my oldest childhood fears and I also developed a fear of bees as a kid after getting stung by one in my behind. Now that I'm an adult the 2 scenes that I was scared of as a kid don't scare me anymore. In the end after a long journey to find the master, Toaster and the other appliances reunite with the master and they all go to college. A very good yet underrated Disney movie here.
Meaghan Edwards Pardon the pun ;) I loved The Brave Little Toaster as a child and no doubt I watched it repeatedly, and it's a true classic piece of nostalgia for many.Even at the tender age of six, I thought the concept behind dated electronics being the main characters was a incredibly creative idea. There was no snazzy CGI effects, and there was no need for any. The story was so brilliantly told in it's more simple animation style and strong writing.Don't let the fact that it this is an animated, non-anime movie at that fool you. There are indeed darker scenes in movie, including one in the beginning of the movie that still managed to make me shiver. Watching it again at the age of 27, I have to say I enjoyed it every much as I did all those years ago, if not more so.Would I recommend The Brave Little Toaster? To say yes would be an understatement!
Kyle Hodgdon "The Brave Little Toaster" is another epic journey-type kids movie that I absolutely fell in love with when I first saw it as a small child. The appliance characters are all great and it is cool to see something other than animals for characters. They were all such likable characters. Who couldn't love Toaster? He has such a great heart and is a good hero for kids who watch this film.As I said, this is a good journey film and it feels amazing to accompany the gang on their quest to find their master.I applaud this film by including some darker moments despite the fact that it's a kids movie. When the toaster sacrifices himself to save the kid, I cried. But scenes like that make a great movie and make it powerful. I will always remember "The Brave Little Toaster" and will always love it. It is a film that everyone should see as a child.
Lechuguilla Having seemingly been abandoned in their country cottage by their owner, five small household appliances (radio, lamp, blanket, vacuum cleaner, and toaster) set out cross-country on a journey to find their master, a young boy. Along the way, the five appliances encounter various adventures and trials, like a waterfall, a pond with frogs, and a fat little repairman.In the transference of human emotion to everyday objects, the story's theme is the yearning to be included, to be relevant, to be needed and loved. The five adventurers display varying human traits. Radio is the most verbal, and something of a comic. Blanket is a tad snugly and sentimental. Kirby the vacuum cleaner is proud and brave. Lamp is "light"-hearted and upbeat. Toaster seems the most ... "grounded" with common sense.The film makes these low-tech appliances sympathetic and heroic. But contrast, the "cutting-edge" electronics are portrayed as mean and possibly deceptive. I wouldn't disagree with that.Color visuals are fine. Animation is acceptable. Even though the lyrics to some of the songs are hard to understand, I like the soundtrack, especially "Trutti-Frutti", "B-Movie Show", and "Mammy". I don't quite understand the rationale for including multiple references to Roosevelt. And radio is forever referring to past historical events. I'm not sure why.Entirely appropriate for kids, "The Brave Little Toaster" works for adults too, mostly through its all-too-human emotional themes, and as a pleasant change from real-life actors, their dramas, and their careers.
