Blue's Big Musical Movie

Plot synopsis:
Blue welcomes the viewer to the house where Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper are preparing to have a big music show until they hear snoring. Steve is still asleep, so Blue goes into the bedroom and helps Tickety Tock wake him up. When Steve wakes up, he needs help to get everything ready for the "You Can Be Anything You Wanna Be" show. Steve and the rest of his friends go into the kitchen to have breakfast. Periwinkle hears about a magic show as he heads off to practice his magic trick. Blue gives Steve a list of things to do. Steve makes up a plan about what Slippery Soap, Shovel and Pail, Mailbox, Tickety and Blue are going to sing about in the big music show. Tickety said Blue would be her duet and sing about being a classroom teacher.
Tickety loses her voice before the show, but she can ring her bells. The game Blue's Clues is played to decide who should be Blue's singing partner. Steve adds three clues to his list of things to do. But then Steve hears Sidetable Drawer singing. Sidetable tries to say something when Steve runs into the kitchen to help Mr. Salt find flour to make some chocolate chip cookies for the neighbors' snack. After helping him, Sidetable gives Steve the handy-dandy notebook.
Steve runs into the backyard, where Mailbox was putting up the posters to tell everyone about the show. Meanwhile, Steve finds the first clue on the handy-dandy notebook. After trying to figure out who should be Blue's singing partner, Steve realizes his clipboard is missing. Periwinkle shows his magic trick as he says the magic words: "Perry-pokus-okus-crokus". Then he heads off looking for Steve. Steve finds his list as Slippery tries to let him help find the hats. Sidetable is trying to ask Steve if she can sing in the show.
Slippery and Steve have a part that is perfect for Sidetable. She knows how sometimes she would hold all the hats on top of her table. Tickety, Pail, Mailbox, Slippery and Shovel are asking Steve what to do with all the stuff. Blue has an idea while helping Shovel and Pail make a doctor's costume. After putting things together, Steve and Blue help their friends make a house and put a curtain together to build the stage. When they are all finished, Steve checks their costumes and the stage. Then he walks back to the house, where Periwinkle is trying to show him his magic trick. Mr. Salt is in the kitchen trying to find the chocolate chips so he can make the cookies.

Review:
Almost as good as the TV show it is based on.
My 2 year old LOVES Blue's Clues, and saw every episode while it was free on Amazon Prime over and over.
I'd rate that show 10 stars.
This movie, however, doesn't quite capture the show's level of excellence.
Probably because it's trying to stretch the exact same elements from 25 minutes into an hour plus long movie and you can feel the middle dragging.
Okay, first the good.
Almost all of the characters from the TV show (at the time this movie was made) are in this movie and it's fun to see so many of them together.
As always, Steve, our sole live actor, does a fantastic job!
As a unique twist, Steve gets a chance to find a clue (rather than the audience pointing them out to him).
The bad: The boring middle section.
In the middle, Steve gets a music lesson and I think it's something like 15 minutes of lesson.
My two year old got bored at this point EVERY TIME we watched this.
He'd wander off.
And it isn't the length of show because he'll watch episode after episode in a row if I let him.
It's just that the music lesson isn't engaging, either visually or any other way.
In the end, I've taken to skipping it for every showing.
That's a large chunk of this movie that's "wasted".
Overall, this isn't a bad movie.
For a 2 year old, I'd say it is probably one of the best things out there, actually!
But if you have to choose, I'd highly recommend buying the episodes over the movie..
It's a Winner for Us. I think this is great for kids.
My three-year old just loves it, and would watch it every day if I let her.A lot of children's movies are either obnoxiously repetitive, sappy or just plain irritating.
Blue's Clues isn't, and this movie is really fun.
I also like that the musical "lessons" go from very simple to somewhat more complex to keep children interested when they begin to learn the easier concepts.
Problems that the characters have are easy for children to relate to, such as shyness and frustration.
The music is easy to listen to, and in some cases, wonderfully catchy.A special appearance by Ray Charles as "G Clef" and his great friends "the notes" really gives it soul..
My 1 year old loves this.
I bought this for my daughter on DVD last year and she will now turn on the TV, grab the DVD remote herself and turn on the show if we leave it in.
She will sit or stand transfixed.
She becomes a Zombie.
I think there might be some kind of subliminal mind washing going on.
I find myself starting to zone out while watching it with her.
Other than that its a good show with repeating subjects that are good to teach children the fundamentals of life..
It's all about the Steve!.
***Yes, Blue's Big Musical Adventure is a movie about a CGI dog of an unnatural hue aimed at the Juicebox set.***Now that we've gotten that out of the way, let's talk about Steve Burns.
WHAT A GUY.
It doesn't seem like there'd be much at all to singing a bunch of cheerful, encouraging songs to toddlers, and waiting for them to yell out answers when you find a "clue."  But, as the sole human of the house, Burns does all his work in front of a bluescreen (no pun intended.)  Must get pretty lonely, don't you think?
If not for the neon fur and disproportionate features of Blue, I'd believe Steve was really talking to his cuddly costar - the man's that fantastic..
Ecxcellent Resource for Pre-School aged children!!!.
This is an excellent teaching aid for pre-school children.
We have a 3 year old and this is one of the films that she will get herself out of of the case and watch herself.
It has a number of skills it teaches as well as musical melodies.
She really likes this and everything that The Blues Clues Production puts out.
Excellent film, if you want your children to grow and learn and be ahead of the crowd of pre-school children.
Another plus...it dosen't push a particular value system on your children.
It is straight foward.
I personally find that refreshing, compared to all of the politically correct children's programming out there.
I reccomend this film for your child..
very creative way to stretch a half hour show to hour and 20 minutes.
Any movie that can hold my 4 year old's attention for the entire hour and 20 minutes has my approval.
I enjoyed it too.
I think that it works very well with the topics it tries to address, low self esteem, morality, ..etc.
plus it's fun too.
Funny and cute.
Great music!.
Ok, I'm 21, and my girlfriend just bought me this movie on DVD, and I loved it.
The movie is made for preschoolers, sure, but I don't see how anyone cannot just fall in love with adorable little Blue.
She's the cutest little pup around, and Steve is pretty cool himself.
The entire gang is here for this adventure, Blue, Steve, Salt and Pepper Shaker, Paprika, Magenta, Green, Side Table Drawer, Tickety Tock, Slippery Soap...almost all of them have major roles in this movie, and they all add their own little nuances.
The music is really cool, with Ray Charles doing a bit when Blue scadoos into sheet music, and Steve learns how to make music.
The persuasions, a group I've never heard of till now do music in the same scene as the notes on the sheet music.
The whole idea of the movie is that the gang is going to have a music show in the backyard.
They make costumes, snacks, build the stage, and everything else.
It's fun to watch over and over, and when you learn all the music, it's kinda nifty to sing along.
Just like the series, the movie incorporates learning into the story, each scene getting a bit more challenging than the last.
If you're a Blue fan, you have to get this movie, and if you think you might like it, do the same, it's a great movie that is well written and thoroughly enjoyable..
Pokemon 2?.
Hmm..any chance for another Pokemon?
Don't think so, this show is made for 3-8, you miss out on that whole 9-12 crowd which is the main child population who goes to see movies.
Still think it will do well though.
Thank goodness this show has more to it than the Care Bears though, parents took me to that.
Almost walked out they were so bored.
Blue is amusing and cute..
