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.
. Revenge, Christmas, and big wooden men, does it get any better than that? Sometimes, it is really best not to analyze too deeply, just enjoy the insanity.
Regardless of what you call it, this public domain Laurel and Hardy adventure is a classic fantasy film...
Keeps the delicious nightmare fuel flowing
Appealing to both children and adults.
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.
A Christmas favorite.
Fair is fair, so it really isn't a Christmas movie, but it'd take an outright Scrooge to complain about that.
Have Seen this movie so many times I stopped counting, I couldn't wait to see it on TV when I was a Kid. It was on every Christmas Day wither on WPIX or WOR TV, back when rabbit ears or the Antenna Dad put on the roof would get us maybe 5 channels total. Anyway I will watch it again come Christmas Day. Its the Best Christmas Movie out there.

First of all I think the story of Babes in Toyland is pretty stupid itself, but this movie has Laurel and Hardy, who could have made the movie funny, but they're just distracting. Although I'd welcome a distraction from having to watch this movie, they're not as funny as they think.
This movie never gets old! I watch this every Thanksgiving at my grandparents's house and I enjoy it everytime. The characters are so sweet and lovable and this is so hilarious! A must-see for adults and kids alike. "Christmas? Christmas in the middle of July?!"
ive seen babes in toyland of course the first time i wtched it i thought it was great and the lad who was in it was pretty cute bt now its still gd but gd for its time and he is no longer cute!
