Parents seeking kid-friendly, Christian entertainment can be comfortable letting their kids watch Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie, which turns the characters from the biblical story of Jonah into a bunch of talking cucumbers, asparagus, peas, and other vegetables. When God instructs the prophet Jonah to go to the wicked city of Ninevah to spread His word, Jonah balks and tries to flee by ship--only to end up in the belly of a whale. When he finally consents to go to Ninevah, things don't turn out quite the way he expects. The VeggieTales team uses computer animation and upbeat musical numbers to express Christian themes, but they do so without being painfully didactic. The animation (and the humor) isn't as sophisticated as that in Toy Story or Shrek, and kids may find some elements of the story confusing, but this may provide an opportunity for parents and kids to discuss values. --Bret Fetzer

 Propaganda For Kids? January 3, 2009
Cartoons with agenda. It is more like relegious advertisament. Doesnt serve the religion well, and using corporate propaganda style to sell ideas to kid not only is immorla but also can have a backlash.
 My daughter's #1 Christmas gift December 31, 2008
We bought this DVD for my 3 year old daughter for Christmas. She LOVES it!!! It's typical that the $5 gift is her favourite.
I definitely recommend this to anyone whose kids/grandkids enjoy VeggieTales.

The CD was very faulty, with jumps & starts & stops. The subtitles were several minutes behind the audio. We have finally given up watching it, & since I have waited too long to return it, we will just throw it away.
 Veggie Tales Deliver the Goods! October 10, 2008

Very good show, as usual. My daughter is not quite old enough (2 1/2), to understand all the references but, a good time to be had, for sure.
Make sure you listen to the commentary by Larry the Cucumber and Mr. Lunt September 11, 2008

I think the voice-over commentary is even funnier than the movie. My wife and I couldn't stop laughing. Please don't skip this part.
