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

We love to put this movie on for a long car ride, kids don't even notice how long we've been on the road! Thanks VeggieTales and Thanks Amazon for having it Cheap too!!!!!!!
Rating: - Entertaining and educational
My daughter loves, loves, loves this movie. Sometimes she watches it three times ina row. It is entertaining to children with all its silliness, but it has a great message and it's higly educational. My daughter now knows the definition of mercy and compassion, and she's seen it practically applied in the example the movie gives. Obviously, it's up to my husband and myself to truly teach her these values, but this movie helps a lot. Plus, she learned a great Bible story in a truly entertaining and funny way.
Rating:  - Jonah movie
A bit too grown-up and long for my 2 and a half year old, but it's pretty good. Veggie Tales is a known product, so you know what to expect.
Rating: - Funny and Factual with Hilarious Anachronisms and Bizarre Behavior
My daughter and I really enjoyed watching this video. The animation is much richer than in previous Veggie Tales videos we've seen, with a 3-D quality and good sound track that made it especially enjoyable to watch. I also liked the fact that this animated movie follows the actual story of Jonah in the Bible fairly closely, with the exception of the fish slapping, which was bizarre and hilarious if not factual, and the Pirates who don't do anything, who added a lot of color, laughter, and life to the story even if they are two thousand years ahead of their time. This 5 star movie is great for the whole family.
