Thomas & Friends: The Great Discovery

We watch it 4-5 times a week and have owned the movie since it first came out. I guess that speaks for itself. It's a simple story line, more about the characters and feelings of friendship and jealousy. The plot is silly - how do you LOSE a town on a tiny island, which is flown over daily by a helicopter and a jet plane? The characters and the narration more than make up for it, though! (and it's way better than that Thomas and the Magic Railroad movie with the magic dust - what the heck was THAT about...)

It's a cute movie. Know my four year old grandson is going to love it.

When I saw this in the theaters,I was amazed at how Thomas toppled over and went through the mine.Overall,the movie was the best in the series.Pierce Brosnan was a CLASSIC narrator for Thomas.He added a lot of warmth when he narrated the story.The Thomas You're The Leader song at the end of the movie was an awesome song!The song was a hit with me!But the whole movie did make me wonder,why did they treat the Thomas model so bad?!?

But if your a Thomas fan out there,BUY THIS MOVIE!

I was not that thrilled to buy yet another Thomas movie, but we are Pierce Brosnan fans and my three year old loves Thomas so I wanted to give it a try and I was not disappointed.

That said, I do think the beginning of the movie is a bit off. Mr. Brosnan sounds a bit monotone, but he seems to pick up the pace and after a while you get caught up in the story about the great discovery (finding the town of Waterton). They introduce a new engine named Stanley (so you can add that train to your growing collection) that my son has not stopped talking about since he saw the movie. Also, the Thomas Theme song at the end is updated and is pretty catchy. A good buy for any Thomas fan.

This is a great movie! Pierce Brosnon is an excellent narrator as well - you can tell he has read these to his children! It is a very good story line about the old town of great waterton, and such great and amazing perils that Thomas goes through. Very exciting and fun.
