    The film is an authentic children's entertainment and quite the merriest of its kind that Hollywood has turned loose on the nation's screens in a long time.

    Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy made this definitive, charming version of 'Babes in Toyland' in 1934.

    The innocent colour, humour, vibrancy and decent songs here should be capable of distracting anyone away from the Nintendo for an hour or so.

    A delightful treasure, especially in its uncut, original Babes in Toyland release.

    This is a kid's movie rife with all the Freudian squalor that Disney repressed.
