Product Description: Babe a pig raised by sheepdogs learns to herd sheep with a little help from farmer hoggett. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 01/09/2007 Starring: James Cromwell David Webb Run time: 89 minutes Rating: Pg Director: Chris Noonan
Amazon.com essential video: The surprise hit of 1995, this splendidly entertaining family film was nominated for six Academy Awards, including best picture, director, and screenplay, and deservedly won the Oscar for its subtly ingenious visual effects. Babe is all about the title character, a heroic little pig who's been taken in by the friendly farmer Hoggett (Oscar nominee James Cromwell), who senses that he and the pig share "a common destiny." Babe, a popular mischief-maker the Australian farm, is adopted by the resident border collie and raised as a puppy, befriended by Ferdinand the duck (who thinks he's a rooster), and saves the day as a champion "sheep-pig." Filled with a supporting cast of talking barnyard animals and a chorus of singing mice (courtesy of computer enhancements and clever animatronics), this frequently hilarious, visually imaginative movie has already taken its place as a family classic with timeless appeal. --Jeff Shannon

I know, I know; very bold statement, but I challenge you to watch `Babe' and not draw the same conclusion. When I first saw `Babe' all those years ago I was like ten and I adored it. But here is the true testament to the brilliance that is `Babe'; I watched it just this past week and LOVED it.
Yes, `Babe' ages very, very well. It is pure family entertainment that shines brightly, giving the audience laughs and tears and heartwarming moments of beauty and peace. `Babe' is a monumental achievement in the world of family (or children's) entertainment for it reaches a level of overall satisfaction without ever having to spice the film with adult humor or forced maturity. This is a children's film that appeals to adults without ever catering to adults, and that is a feat in itself. Unlike `Shrek' and recent so-called children's films that have followed, `Babe' never goes over the child's head yet it always maintains the adult's attention.
`Babe' tells the story a young orphan pig who escapes slaughter by displaying his ability to herd sheep. His owner, Arthur Hoggett enters Babe into a sheep-herding contest despite everyone's disapproval.
The beauty within `Babe' is not found in the plot (which is pretty simple) but in the underlying emotional connection between Hoggett and Babe and, well, Babe and everyone. It really shows that family can never be defined and that you can be loved and show love to any and everyone, regardless of ... Read More
