| Blue bounds into her first feature-length film ready to sing. She gets sidetracked along the way, of course, but that's part of the brilliant Blue's Clues formula. Each half-hour TV show presents engaging, easy-to-grasp mini-mysteries that are within toddlers' reach. This time Blue; her huge-eyed, slightly loopy human companion, Steve; and their cadre of talking-object friends are scurrying around, preparing for a backyard music show that day. Everybody picks a number to perform; Blue's is a duet with Tickety Tock, but the clock contracts laryngitis. Who will be Blue's new partner? A game of Blue's Clues reveals the hardly reluctant replacement. The standard discovery of three clues followed by the usual wind-down song would add up to a colossal disappointment in a feature film, so substantial rounding-out is provided. Steve stumbles onto a keyboard inhabited by a note called G-Clef (the unmistakable voice of Ray Charles), who gives a tour of how to make a song. First you pick the notes, then you work on rhythm, then comes tempo, and, last but not least, "you've got to give it soul." This movie's themes include perseverance (Tickety Tock can't sing but finds a way to contribute anyway) and self-empowerment. Blue's Big Musical Movie is a feast for little eyes and ears; the sets are so colorful they hurt grown-up eyes, and the songs--especially the one that gets the Charles treatment--are all sing-along-with-me winners. --Tammy La Gorce Editorial Descriptions are usually submitted by the manufacturers, publishers and authors.

My daughter is 15 months old. She watches this and other things when her older sibling is trying to concentrate on homework and needs my help. I'm not sure what she gleens from it but after the first couple of times of viewing she has been generally riveted. The songs are fun, the messages are good, the characters are well animated and Steve is very earnest.

My three year old absolutely loves this show! It teaches great concepts about music and holds his attention for the entire show (it is a little longer than a normal episode). If you are into music, this show is a great one for your little one.

Although much longer than a typical "Blue's Clues" episode, this full-length movie does not disappoint. During Steve's quest to write a song for the musical he takes an adventure with "G-Clef" who gives him a brief introduction to rhythm, harmony, etc. "G-Clef" is none other than the incomprable Ray Charles. The tune is catchy. My 3 1/2 year old enjoys this DVD tremendously and its message of "Don't give up, just go on," has become part of her vocabulary. I would recommend it for toddlers highly.

I originally bought the VHS version of this for my oldest son (who is now 7). The tape has been completely worn out, necessitating the purchase of a dvd version for my younger boys. This movie features Steve and not Joe- It's a great, movie-length Blue's Clues that teaches the children about rhythm, high-low notes, and singing - all while searching for 'Blue's Clues'.
