The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: A VeggieTales Movie (2008)

I actually thought this movie had a great biblical message! Admittedly, it was much more allegorical than literal, which allows it to mainstream better in my opinion. The story is about two "Children of the King" who are in trouble. Their father, The King, intended to represent God, sends the "Help Seeker" which, in my opinion, was intended to represent the Holy Spirit. Then, the Help Seeker chooses three misfits, who are portrayed as losers for the most part, the most unlikely of choices to help. I thought this was a great picture of how God chooses to use us, even in our imperfections, for our good and the good of others!

Great movie for the whole family. There is no crude jokes or swearing! Has a witty plot and lovable characters. I only wish the movie had more songs. VeggieTales movies usually have lots of songs! Anyway, it's still is a wholesome, clever and cute little film. There was even some jokes that adults could only get, like gags about the "Love Boat" and stuff. But, it didn't have Bob the Tomato, in the movie until the very end. That was too bad because Bob is my favorite character. My favorite part is at the end when the "Rock Monster" music video plays. It's really funny. Overall, I recommend this film for anyone who wants to see a harmless and witty movie about talking vegetables. Enjoy!

I took the kids to see this one, and they all thoroughly enjoyed themselves (even the teenager!). Personally, I got a kick out of the story; with all the twists and turns, you never know what is coming next, or where it will all lead. There are realistic personal situations for our favorite veggies to deal with, plenty of action to keep things moving along, and all the laughs and silliness that we have come to expect from Veggie Tales. The moral was there, of course, presented so wonderfully and cleverly that even the secular audience grasp and appreciate the lesson. Once again, Big Idea has served us up a delightful tale for the entire family, that children of all ages can see with no worries by their parents.

I absolutely loved this movie! I liked the animation, some of the music, and the plot, and it had some funny content, which was mostly found in the dialogue. Although this movie had few songs compared to the Jonah Veggietales movie, Bob the Tomato and Jr. Asparagus were barely used at all, the music video at the end was weird, the credits didn't have any funny songs like Jonah did, and the "pirates who don't do anything" in this movie aren't pirates at all, I personally found this one of the most entertaining Veggietales productions. What's more, this movie has a moral lesson that I think applies to all Christians and not just those in a specific situation, unlike some of the other Veggietales movies and videos. It teaches about the importance of fulfilling the call that God has on our lives. So I highly recommend seeing this movie because it's very entertaining and useful.
