The Easter Bunny is Coming to Town

Review by V. Hatch, 2010-05-03

The movie is great. The service from Amazon was not. I placed the order on-line before noon on Thursday. Paid an extra $15 for one day delivery service. Did not receive the package until the following Monday. Amazon does not provide any information on how to contact the company on the invoice. Just instructions for return of the product.

Love the Bunny

Review by Sharon Voigt, 2010-04-26

I remember watching this movie with my children and my students in school. It is a delightful tale of "how Easter traditions came into being". It is made by the same people who did, "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" and features the voice of Fred Astaire. The presentation is very similar to the Christmas video.

An entertaining, though lackluster, show for the children

Review by Dale, 2010-04-15

I have to admit that watching this program for the first time in years was somewhat difficult. The storyline is a little more convoluted than the Christmas version called "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" but that doesn't mean it isn't entertaining for the kids. The plot is very similar to the Santa Claus version since it features a really mean adult (a woman this time) who controls the rules of a town and forbids Easter Eggs and gifts to be distributed on Easter Sunday. Like the Santa version there happens to be a cottage that is separated from this town by a scary mountain; this is where our bunny hero learns to make Easter Eggs, and sweets like jellybeans to share with everyone. The cottage features a magic farm that features singing chickens that lay eggs and family that produces sweets perfect for an Easter basket. Instead of a Warlock you have a grumpy brown bear scaring the Bunny and his friends as they travel across the mountain to deliver their Easter goods. The songs aren't as catchy as the Santa Clause story, but as I mentioned, the children enjoyed the program. Look for the Peter Cottontail stop motion story on DVD also.
