The term "freakin'" is used to mean "scaring." ("You guys are kind of freakin' me out") It is not used as an expletive or a crude adjective. This is yet another great VeggieTales movie, cleverly put together and amusing enough to entertain parents as well as children.

What Parents Need to Know
About VeggieTales: The Wonderful Wizard of Ha's
Parents need to know that VeggieTales DVDs are Christian-themed stories for children. While the bulk of the Veggie audience is religious, non-Christian families could also enjoy the well-animated, clever stories (but may want to fast-forward the intro and ending parts with Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber, which feature a Bible verse and a "God thinks you're special" message). Their latest show is derived from The Wizard of Oz, but is essentially the parable of the prodigal son. There's nothing objectionable in the material, so even preschoolers can see it.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about why Darby thinks his father won't accept him. Darby could've saved all his money for the amusement park, but he helps the scarecrow, tin man, and lion instead. What does that say about how Darby was raised? Kids: Do parents only love children when they're well-behaved? Christian families may want to discuss the story of the prodigal son.

I'm appalled
When Common Sense talked about the language in this movie, I was shocked, appalled, and very upset. I've never seen this movie, but to think that now Veggie Tales added that f word in it is horrible. It's so sad...

Very entertaining for all ages. My husband and I enjoyed this Family Movie Night choice as much as the kids!
