    Subtle, but wonderful message

    by

    The message of this movie may not blatantly obvious, but anyone who believes in God and His power, the ending will leave you with tears. I won't spoil the end for those of you who haven't seen yet, but a similar feeling you get at the end of Narnia. The message is clear, God loves you and needs you. This movie doesn't follow the typical VeggieTales format, but I think this may get more non-Christian families to go. My son is five and this movie was a great springboard for us to talk about God, what He is, and what He can do. If nothing else, this is a great children's movie that isn't violent, has some adult humor (that isn't inappropriate--i.e. Edward Scissorhands), good songs, and a good message for everyone (doing what is right). I strongly recommend this movie and I will buy it the day it is released, I may even go to the theater again to see it.

    by SkyHi

    ABSOLUTELY amazing! The storyline is ingeniously CLEVER. This hidden message empowers any and every child to know that he/she CAN become a REAL hero. This serving of Veggies is TRULY good for our little ones...and even appeals to parents and grandparents. Big Idea, you've done it again...and even better! Congrats for wrapping a story of what it REALLy means to be a hero in a hilariously wacky and every-minute-jam-packed-full of excitement story of the adventures of these just, plain lovable Veggie pirates! We love you!!!!! Keep 'um coming. We need more.

    The Pirates Rock!

    The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything is a fun family film. It has humor for both children and adults. My children love Veggie Tales. My youngest, age 5, loved playing the drums along with ROCK MONSTER, the fun song at the end of the movie. It gives symbolism of God, our King, and how He always supplies the help we need. We saw it in the big theatre twice. We will anxiously await its arrival on DVD.
