Good Show, But Not a Full Length Movie
"Imagination Island" is one of the better Barney outings, and I can happily recommend it. However, the new packaging and promotion is extremely misleading when it claims to be a "full-length movie." It's not, and it never has been. "Imagination Island" runs only 45 minutes, and was originally a primetime TV special on NBC. It has been available on DVD since 1999.
The production values are quite good, but are the same as other Barney videos of this vintage and are not of "feature film" quality. All of which is to say that kids will enjoy the show, as long as neither they (nor their parents) are expecting this to be either a new production or a "full-length movie." And shame on HIT Entertainment for this deceitful repackaging.
A Barney Classic
As the professor would say... "enchanting"... my two year old loves it- as did my -now ten year old son when he was two...
Great for kids
I loved Barney growing up--especially this episode--and so I decided to buy Imagination Island for my two-year-old niece. She absolutely loves it as well, and has even learned a new word: imagine. Great product that can teach kids how to share and be kind to others without expecting anything in return.
