I am 26 years old and this movie came out when I was young, I loved it then and I still loved it. I have nver seen the original, but to me this was the orginal. Never knew anything different

This was a delightful movie. My entire family loved it. Was full of fun and friendship. Pippi does what she does so well, she thinks outside the box and creates a life for herself and embelishes the lives of others.

I remember Pippi from when I was a kid and how much I liked it. My 6 yr old was glued to the tv and loved it. I thought it was better than the orginal.

I loved this movie as a child and I still love it today! This is a movie your whole family can enjoy. The acting is great, the animals well trained. Just a ball to watch

Great family movie of Pippi Longstocking. I watched it long time ago, over 20 years ago and I watched it the 2nd time. Still good.

I used to love this movie when I was younger. Now I show it every year to my 3rd grade class after I read the book. They love it just as much as I did, all these years later!

The movie was fun, with catchy songs (semi-annoying, too) and fun actors. However, I had extremely low expectations from reading reviews before renting. Many scenes were cheesy or pointless, and some were hard to understand amiss all the nonsense from Pippi. However, it was a fun movie that out me in good spirits, so that's half a point for Pippi.

The acting was awful and the songs were no better. My 3 year old liked some of it, my 9 year old never wants to see it again.

Yes   |   No


Katherine F.

I loved this story as a little girl and was crushed to see that the new remake was so bad. It had none of the sweetness of the original. Please do not waste your time, just stick to the old ones.

If you have seen the orignal Pipi Longstocking, then you will be disappointed by this version. The acting was horrible, and my kids hated it.
