    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.

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

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

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