One of the most popular characters on Sesame Street gets his own movie in this family comedy. Playful Elmo (voice of Kevin Clash) loves his blue blanket and would never want to lose it. So when it gets spirited off to parts unknown in the midst of a tug-of-war with one of his friends, Elmo sets out to find it and ends up in the grumpy kingdom of Grouchland, where Huxley (Mandy Patinkin) and the Queen of Trash (Vanessa Williams) rule over a dark and ill-mannered domain. Along with Elmo, several other favorite Sesame Street characters appear, including Oscar the Grouch (Carroll Spinney), Ernie (Steve Whitmire), and Bert (Frank Oz).
Our 8 month old won't stop watching this movie, he laughs at the characters and dances to the songs. This movie was originally on VHS back in 1998 and my other 2 children had watched it so much that the tape had worn out. I purchased this movie on DVD for our new child and would recommend this movie for children who like Elmo and enjoy music. The movie teaches children to be kind and respectful to everyone, teaches them to not be greedy and share and teaches them self esteem and to believe in them self's.
