My 2.5 year old son loves this movie! It's not a full movie--it's 4 Thomas episodes with a story in between. The movie opens with an engine driver "Perkins" entering the Knapford Engine Drivers Common Room. Sir Topham Hatt calls and informs Perkins that he will be coming to inspect the station. Perkins begins cleaning the messy station in preparation for the inspection. This is the running story in between episodes (these mostly center around Perkins cleaning TOO quickly and making a bigger mess in his rush).Episodes:Thomas' Tall FriendPercy's New FriendsToby and BashBig BelleThese are all upbeat and cheerful episodes, so they are enjoyable to watch. I rated it 4 stars because I was expecting a full feature film and just the first episode had anything to do with the animals pictured on the cover. It was still a cute DVD and worth what I paid for it.
