Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

gawdsmakk This is the worst movie ever made , bar none. five starts, are you kidding- the fact that any human being would rate this five stars could be used as a way to diagnose psychological disorders!i knew there were tons of nutcases in the world and all the 5 star ratings just absolutely proves this ! this movie would make a great pizza since it has super double extra cheese ! even for 1970 its horrid. the animation looks plain simple and awful. the story line is ridiculous. a watch dog with a clock? a clock is not a watch,so thats not clever, unless maybe you are 4 and dont know any better. plus he barks a lot, and his clock keeps ringing like an obnoxious alarm clock ! in fact im quite sure itd be more entertaining to just listen to an obnoxious alarm clark while listening to dogs bark, than to waste any moment of time watching this horrid movie. I think i will have nightmares about it for years to come. it should be used as a legitimate method of torture. the singing by the main characters is the worst sounding karaoke sounds, to put it simply i could sing better and i sound terrible singing ! um i could go on and on. this movie should be banned. its not worth the dvd its recorded on. its a waste of resources for it to continue to be printed and sold, or to exist. staring at a blank wall would be far more entertaining and less obnoxious than watching this movie.i would not watch it again unless you paid me at least $1000 dollars and i was aloud to wear earplugs. this just proves all the movie review websites are crooked and corrupt, to give this movie anything more than one half a star is a complete and total lie. if theres an audience for everything, there must be an audience that enjoys watching poop floating in a pool, because that would be far more entertaining than this movie, and less annoying too!

Scout Collins SPOILER ALERT!!! I haven't watched the movie, but if it is anything like the book, then it is really a waste of your time. Milo hates his life and then he magically gets imported to a magical land of metaphors, not wisdom. And in the end, after his self-changing journey, he goes back to Earth and of course, classically, only one hour has passed. And then he looks at the world differently. He notices small things; he loves school and everything much more. It's definitely different from Modern Movies. I would rate this as a very bad book. Especially because about every one to three chapters, a bunch of characters are jumping from one place to the next ("Jumping to Conclusions") and there are about 50 characters in the whole book, and I lost track after Milo, Tock, Tick, The Mathemagician, King Azaz, Rhyme, Reason, The Humbug and the Which. Also, if you are looking for a realistic read, never read this book. It's very fantasy, except it's not actually a "fantasy", because there is nothing good that happens in it! If you are going to read it, get it from the library. Don't waste your money.

rorymacveigh I remember this film I was always fondly attached to, mainly because its just such an enjoyable little film. It encompasses that nostalgic feel of animations together with a lovely and quite innocent little story. When I was younger, I didn't exactly pay much attention to the plot, but the idea of being able to get into a car that builds itself in your room and somehow become animated was just exhilarating to my young imagination and it probably will be to other children of that age.The film begins with Milo, a young boy with way too much time on his hands. Spending another bored afternoon in his apartment, he comes across a strange present in his living room. Opening it up, a tollbooth and car magically form. On the tollbooth, a megaphone gives Milo instructions to get in the car and enter the tollbooth, taking him into another world of mad fun. This world has every strange creature that was ever conceived going around at once. It has the sludge like dull-drums which feed off the exhaustion of those who are unfortunate to travel within their swamp like surroundings and a Police Officer on one wheel who enjoys branding people Guilty until proved innocent on some of the most moronic charges. After a while, he comes across Tock the Dog, a Guard Dog with an Alarm Clock ticking inside him. Together, he and Milo travel to the Kingdom of Words where they meet the Humbug (a sarcastic charlatan who is rather simple minded) and the King of Words, who is in a feud with his brother, the King of Maths after the pair disagreed on whether Maths or Words were more important. Soon Milo finds himself on a quest with Tock and the Humbug to find the Princesses locked in the Castle in the Air, who hope to restore order and peace to the world. After stopping off at the King of Maths, the trio are now armed with the tools needed to face the various ghouls and demons that await them on their journey ahead. Can Milo and his friends make it to the Castle? Can they successfully defeat the dangerous monsters that await them? Only the movie can tell you...

battlebeast The Phantom Tollbooth is warped movie from the warped mind of the great Chuck Jones.Milo, an ordinary boy, is bored with life. One day he receives a tollbooth as a present. This Tollbooth will supposedly take him out of his boredom.Milo enters the Tollbooth and is instantly changed into a cartoon character. From here on in, he journeys to the "Whether" man, into the doldrums, meets tock, the watchdog, and onward to Dictionopolis and the Kingdom of Numbers in order to save Rhyme and Reason.The movie is twisted in every which way; there are plenty of songs the make no sense but make you laugh out loud. The Animation is typical "Looney Tunes" style but works very well with the quirky plot.The Phantom Tollbooth is a lost gem the deserves DVD treatment in the worst way. Lets hope one day soon that this diamond in the rough will find a new generation of children!
