The Blue Elephant

My two-year old son LOVES this movie. He received it for Christmas in his stocking it had been a previous favorite that was removed from Netflix, and didn't want to open any Christmas presents until this was playing. There are some references I'm not thrilled about (i.e. the opening scene features two birds talking about an over-sized young elephant moving quickly and say "look at that blubber shake"), but overall it's a wholesome movie and my son loves the elephants.

My daughter enjoys this movies still. She had it when she was five, but the dvd scratched and she is now extremely happy with this new one!

I had found this movie on Netflix. Then they took it out of rotation. So I had to buy it. It is a great movie that teaches that it is not about how big you are outside, but how strong you are inside. Unfortunately it is also about war, so take that into consideration. it is for children, so no bloodshed, but there will be moments of sadness. Great little movie overall.

Love this movie. Watched it over and over with my children. Glad I bought it rather than rent it

My son viewed this movie at a sleepover and begged for it. I ordered it on Amazon came way quicker than I expected and my kids, ourselves, and our other family members have all watched it more than once in less than a week and can not stop talking about it! Great family movie it does have violence and death in it, but other than that it is great!

We first encountered this one on Netflix until they took it off. For the longest this was the only thing that would help us calm her when she was upset. Very cute movie with a good story for kids. My daughter is glued to the screen when this is on.

This such a great little story for little people. My 18 month old grandson is glued to this slow moving story. It also calms the 8 year old before bedtime. This is our second dvd of this movie

This is some bullsh*t American cut, so many scenes deleted especially the ending major events cut out etc. Longer fight scene, broken tusk, the way the black elephant died was total sh*t. He didnt just fall down, he landed on a his own broken tusk that was broken off(skipped) charge me full price full half a movie.

Good condition!

Thank you

When I bought this Thai movie for my then 8 years old daughter I was attracted mostly by the cute elephants on the box cover and in the beginning the movie was indeed about cute little elephants. But then it turned much darker than any other kid movie I ever seen.The action of film takes place in Siam (today this country is called Thailand) in XVIII century, when this kingdom was invaded by its Burmese neighbours. More of half of the movie is about the war training of elephants and our blue hero, when fully grown up, goes to fight a bloody war carrying on his back the king of Siam. The Burmese are presented as wild, red eyed barbarians and they certainly act in very barbaric ways. The battles are brutal and even my 8 years old daughter felt a little bit uncomfortable - and I am certain that this movie is NOT appropriate to the youngest children, not until they are seven at least.Other than that, it is not a bad film and certainly very different from most kid movies I ever saw - just be warned that cute and cuddly part ends fast and then the story heads to army training camps and the war...

J'ai acheté ce DVD pour ma petite fille de 4 ans qui l'adore
