A train worth catching.
An archaic rail-ride into the heart of boredom.

A children tv show film mostly won't be a success, but I think this movie is really joyful, and the ending is the best scene of the movie.
Report
[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]
Report
The plot keeps switching tracks.
An inept assembly of ill-matched plot points, meandering through a production that has attractive art direction (despite the immobile mouths).
A big, fat clunker.
An ugly and insipid film.
I Liked TATMR When I was younger but now, I think it's ok. Of course I grew up on Thomas but this lacks on sodor scenes.
Report
This would have to be one of the worst Thomas and Friends features ever put on screen. And judging from Misty Island Rescue, Calling All Engines, and The Other Side of the Mountain, that's saying a lot. Thomas isn't funny. Heck, you can't even relate to him. And speaking of Thomas, for his first feature film, he's barely in it! The film just centers on a young girl, an out of his mind conductor and a depressed Peter Fonda. Now I know I should give it credit for having Peter **** THE SHOW ITSELF HAS EDDIE REDMAYNE! Yeah, no kidding! I think I said enough.
