Synopsis

This feature-length, fully-animated children's adventure is enhanced by lively songs and the vocal talents of Danny DeVito, Cloris Leachman, Rhea Perlman, Tony Randall, Madeline Kahn, and Jon Bauman. All the ponies in Poneyland, along with their other non-pony friends, struggle to save their home from the wicked witch Hydia and her dastardly daughters. As they battle the forces of evil, they learn some valuable life lessons along the way. Enchanting illustrations and coloring are pleasing to the eye and make these ponies a sure-fire hit for animation lovers of all ages.

This is my first review ever,but after seeing 'My little pony'and noticing my daughters reaction I have to.I was very surprised after all the positive reviews to actually see this movie!!My daughter(3,5) repeats all the name calling,and that happens a lot in this movie.For a little girl's story I expect more positiveness and gentleness.The 'My little pony'concept gives so many possibilities,what a shame they came up with this story!Unfortunately my daughter loves it and I have to get it from it's hiding place...

I remember thinking this movie was fantastic when I was a child and my five year old daughter is now loving it just as much as I did. However, I do not have any memory of the ponies' voices being so high-pitched, screechy and fingernails-down-a-blackboard annoyingly hideous! Whilst I was delighted to see it again for the sake of nostalgia, I now have to leave the room when my daughter puts it on for the twentieth time...

Vintage cartoon but bad DVD
Review date: 2007-02-04 Rating: 6 out of 10

This is a classic cartoon from the eighties and I bought it for my kids having enjoyed it as a child myself. I must admit to being a little bit disappointed with the quality of the DVD itself. The movie is great just as I remembered, catchy songs, great voices and likeable characters but they have not 'cleaned' up the DVD. It's worse than on a VHS copy and really bad sound. There are absolutely no extras apart from 'Play' and 'Scene Selection' which is a shame. But at the price it's worth it. The kids have been watching it over and over.

Fun film. Terrible DVD.

I love how Hasbro are treating the My Little Pony line now. Not only are the new line of toys poor quality (have you ever had a Pony with nice hair out of the box? Or a Pony without a factory flaw?), but so is this DVD. It plays badly and it looks like it was just re-recorded from VHS. The cover of this DVD is also poorly done, with cheap artwork and awful grammar mistakes in the vague summary on the back.
I have a well-loved VHS copy of this film from my youth and it's in better shape than this DVD. What does that tell you?
Cheap and tacky DVD aside this is a fun film. Not the greatest script or animation wise, but it's still a nice nostalgia trip. The songs stay with you for a lifetime, and you can't help but feel the jealously rising once more as Megan plays with her Pony friends and you are trapped on the other side of the television screen.
In conclusion: Great nostalgia, awful DVD.

Nostalgic memories - my little pony
Review date: 2004-05-14 Rating: 10 out of 10

I loved this movie to bits when i was a kid and was really pleased to see it for sale again. Kids now will enjoy this animation movie just as much as I did nearly twenty years ago!
The ponies are in trouble and during the story, life lessons are taught to children in a natural way - unlike some animation today which seems to have no purpose or imagination. Also adults of my age group will appreciate rewatching this memorable movie!
