Skunkyrate Gripping story with well-crafted characters

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

andrewfleming-57891 Babe is an amazing, unique, funny, beautiful, enjoyable film. Everything about this film is great. Its the story of a pig who trains as a sheep dog and becomes friends with the sheep, dogs, horse, cow, duck and even the farmer. Its one of the most watchable films ever, anyone could watch it at any time and still enjoy it. Its just great. 9/10

willkostick My favorite movie of all time! It's so charming, the talking animal effects and the story hold up really well 20+ years later. James Cromwell is terrific as Farmer Hoggett, the voice actors of all the animals are great, the movie is visually gorgeous. This movie is my happy place and if you haven't seen Babe yet, don't miss out! Also, worth watching is the sequel, Babe: Pig in the City. It somehow manages to be darker yet sillier at the same time.

KARLA ES Each character is beautifully brought to life. From farmer Hoggett to Dutchess the cat, no matter how little is said, how little they are on screen they are pleasure to watch. Nothing is over stated or over explained. And it's all there before you: the beauty and the horror that is life. Now before I scare you thinking you will get some type of lecture shoved down your throat, let me say again: it is like a fairy tale. You are welcomed into both worlds of humans and animals and the story of what happens when their paths cross and you mix in a little love, patience and that belief that your dreams have a right to come true.

pavelb-968-44685 I've watched this flick many times now and can find nothing negative about the script, characters, narration, story-book sets or production. The contrast between Mother Hoggett and farmer Hoggett, as well as the dog's take on the order of things vs sheep's take, is utterly delightful. The development of the principal animals is electric with the frustrated duck, as the common man, being brilliant. Warning, PETA adherents and cat lovers, of which I can not number myself, might be offended. There is plenty of action and suspense to keep you riveted to the screen, yet everything falls within the bounds of talking-animal reality. The Director doesn't beat you over the head with the subtle morals (loyalty, pitfalls of "tribalism" (species-ism?), having the courage-of-your-own-convictions) that underline this story. A workmate of mine, the most oppressively cynical man on the face of the earth, was jumping around for days after seeing this film - it was as if he had been reborn. Any film that can have such a profound positive effect on a person is truly special. This film ranks up there with Ratatouille, The Gods Must be Crazy, It's a Wonderful Life and Waking Ned Devine as the cream of the crop.
