DVD Review: Hatching Pete and Dadnapped - Page 2

Geared toward the tween audience, I feel that both Hatching Pete and Dadnapped will appeal to younger and older people as well. Both of my children (ages 2 and 7) loved Dadnapped and Hatching Pete. There were several scenes, throughout Hatching Pete, that all three of us were laughing out loud. When the Chicken was not dominating a scene, my son kept asking about the “buck buck”.

Disney’s Double Feature of Hatching Pete and Dadnapped makes a wonderful family fun experience that both parents and children will greatly enjoy. The actors do a fabulous job of portraying their characters, there are tons of laugh out loud scenes in both movies, and Disney fans will even have the enjoyment of listening to music performed by Emily Osment and Mitchel Musso throughout their respective movies. Included in the DVD case is a special online code that will allow viewers to go online and watch two full-length music videos: “Hero In Me” by Emily Osment and “Let It Go” by Mitchel Musso and Tiffany Thornton.

Also included are bonus features at the end of each movie. After Hatching Pete, you will discover “Unmasking The Mascot” which is actually a pretty interesting showing and telling about how the Chicken mascot came to be and what it was like inside the costume. The bonus features on Dadnapped include an extended ending and an animated graphic novel titled Trip Zoome: Off the Rails. Both are great and will add to the viewing experience.

Two full-length movies on one DVD for one great price is an excellent combination! In addition, both Hatching Pete and Dadnapped are enjoyable and fun movies that have a common theme: be confident in yourself and who you are. A double header set of family movies that a parent can be confident in and that children/tweens/teens will enjoy.
