Thomas and the Magic Railroad
Mr. Conductor's supply of magic gold dust, which allows him to travel between Shining Time and Thomas's island, is critically low. Unfortunately, he doesn't know how to get more. Meanwhile, Thomas is fending off attacks by the nasty diesel engines. Getting more gold dust will require help from Mr. C's slacker cousin, his new friend Lily and her morose grandfather, plus the secret engine.

Very Cool!!!
As Good As It Gets
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
This movie makes Misty island rescue passable. While I have a soft spot for the blue tank engine, looking back on it this movie was kinda boring. It's good background noise but as a movie it's just really underwhelming.
Thomas has always been my favourite children's show and this movie nailed it! The cast was beautifully scored and the way Thomas, Percy and the rest of the gang were portrayed greatly. the only problem I have is that James and Percy sound like women and Lady didn't get enough screentime.
This movie is horribly okay they get a lot of grammar wrong I guess this movie was written by writers on such bad shows like Henry Danger, Fanboy & Chum Chum , Oggy And The Cockroaches , And Mickey Mouse Cult house. At least it wasn't as bad as Thomas seasons 8-16 I'll tell you that much. The only thing that I liked about it was that it had some great performances from Peter Fonda and Alec Baldwin and it's dedicated to the rev. w . aw-dry. The trains having to work for the hell of it is kind of stupid. I mean there is no people on railway maybe paramount pictures thought it would be a bit scary for kids because that the people figures would look stoned. And that's a bit creepy but they did for seasons 1-11 so why the hell would they just take them out I just don't know. Also I'm pretty sure Patch would get arrested by police because he lost Lily but Lily's grandfather or uncle just doesn't care maybe they're gonna both end up in jail just two partners in crime. So that's all bye-bye.
Like my reviews for Fred the Movie and Beverly Hills Chihuahua, I have absolutely nothing to say for the summary of my review. Why are Alec Baldwin and Peter Fonda in a stupid and brainless movie like this one? This isn't Toy Story, this is Thomas the freaking Tank Engine! Well, Thomas the Tank Engine was one of my childhood favorites and I always watched it on video. But, I have one question I got stuck in my head ever since I watched the trailer: HOW IS IT POSSIBLE TO MAKE A MOVIE OUT OF A TRAIN WHOSE LIPS DON'T EVEN MOVE AT ALL?!!! First of all, Peter Fonda is too freaking depressing to be in a kid's movie like this! Don't ever let this guy star in a remake of the 1980's Pound Puppies cartoon series anytime soon. And then there's Alec Baldwin, who plays a conductor who looks like he's high on crack and screams "Sparkle, Sparkle, Sparkle!". Is it me or is this "Sparkle, Sparkle, Sparkle" phrase infecting people after they watched the Nostalgia Critic episode reviewing this movie? Then, there's Marla Wilson, who smiles with her mouth open throughout the whole movie. I swear this girl looks like she has autism or Aspergers! There's a whole lot more, but I'm going to wrap up this review: A horrendous script, generic music, crappy special effects, and Peter Fonda's depressing performance are the reasons why I hate this movie and why this movie should never, ever, ever, ever, EVER been made in the first place! And if you disagree, what kind of drugs were you on when you watched this movie?
