Content: Mild action and Thematic Elements? I see more of
that in my breakfast cereal!
Review: A wildly
ridiculous
romp through a fanciful investigation and the twisting stories everyone
has to tell. I LOVED IT! Basically an alternative fairy tale and a
wonderful one at that. Was the Wolf all that big and bad? Why WAS the
woodsman outside Grandma's house? What is Grandma's big secret? And is
Red REALLY a helpless little girl, or secret ninja spy in disguise?
O.K.
I'll tell you the last one I made up myself, but she ain't all she's
made out to be either. Well animated, good story, a host of
recognizable, and unrecognizable, voices, make a special tale for the
family. A mix of quite a few other fairy tale characters fill out the
cast and make this one fun show. Have no fear, the kids see more "Mild
action and Thematic Elements" in their morning cartoons. Even our most
die hard anti-kid son was dragged to this and laughed several times in
the show, so just about everyone will find something to smile about
here.
Don't wait.
Guarantee your seat before you go and avoid a sold out
show. Skip the box office lines and buy movie tickets at

Plot: Red
Riding Hood's trip to
Grandma's house becomes a full blown investigation into who's stealing
all the recipes of the local goodies makers. Was it Red, the cute,
innocent darling of the fairy tale world? How about the Big Bad Wolf?
He's got that shifty look about him anyway. The Woodsman and his ever
sharp ax? And what about Grandma? Everyone has something in their
closets, even this treat baking matron. No one is above suspicion and
this tale takes a wild ride through the investigation and stories that
everyone tells.
