DVD Reviews of Jane And The Dragon: A Dragon's Tale
DVD Review: You'll Love Jane and Her Friends!
Summary: 5 Stars
Jane and the Dragon is one of my top-rated children shows of all time.
Jane is a girl who wants to be more than what others' wanted her to be. She believes that she can do things as well as a man could, and sets out to be a knight.
As for the Dragon, he's a lovable lizard (haha). Jane and him have a close relationship, and it's very cute and enjoyable to watch them fling nicknames back and forth at each other--such as the Dragon calling her "Short-life", as dragons live many human lifetimes, and Jane calling Dragon names such as "You overgrown lizard!" This never turns into a mean gesture, rather something you will grow to love and remember fondly.
The three best parts of the show are the characters, the art, and the messages that the show sends to its audience.
The characters that surround Jane are nothing more than a joy. Even when you're annoyed with one at the moment, later on you can always see that they have more than one side to them, they're not flat characters.
For instance, it may be easy to dislike Gunther, but in some of the episodes, he shows that he doesn't always feel good about his actions, and often tries to make up for them in some way or another. He's grown to be one of my favorite characters, actually.
Other characters such as Chester the Jester, Pepper the Cook, Rake the Gardener, and Smithy the Blacksmith support Jane through her quests, but also get plenty of their own time in the spotlight so you never feel like they're left out or unimportant.
The art is simply gorgeous. It has a painted feel to it, and appeals to EVERYBODY. And seriously, I mean that. If you don't like the graphics, that's fine, but I doubt anyone could HATE them. They're bright, colorful, vibrant, and different from other shows out there. Very lovable.
As for the messages, each show carries one. However, you never feel like the messages are forced, stupidly shown, or ridiculous. They flow into the storyline, so it never feels like you're being preached at. The show deals with things such as treating others as you'd like to be treated, helping your friends, being honest, bravery, accepting yourself for who you are and how you look, and standing up for what's right.
I, myself, think that just these alone are wonderful messages to send to kids, and there are many more like these in other episodes.
One recent episode may help children to understand their parents more-- it has to do with fathers, and how Jane thinks her father boring, dull, and overall unimportant. Well, he proves her wrong when he is the only one in the castle who realizes that she has gone missing, and is the only one who can save her. After the incident, she sees her father in a different light, and also sees that his protectiveness over her is not a weakness, but rather, a strength and a gift.
I WHOLEHEARTEDLY RECOMMEND THIS DVD TO EVERYONE EVERYWHERE EVERYTIME.
Thank you :] Hope this helped.
