Horrible, fascist and poorly acted
A Brilliant Conflict
Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
Many years ago while my husband was in the Army, we were stationed in Dusseldorf, Germany. My young daughters and I discovered Ma-ma one night on television and fell in love with the movie. They sang "Ma-ma's home" for days after seeing the movie and still, all these years later, can remember some of the words. I am now a grandmother with 7 grandchildren and I would love to find a DVD of the movie to show them. One of my grandsons, now 15, is interested in theater and has just appeared in a local production of Godspell. I have "Out of the Woods" on DVD and he thought that was great. If anyone out there knows of a DVD or VHS that is available of "Ma-ma", I would like to know so I can purchase a copy. Thank you.
My grandfather had this movie on a beta tape and my brother and I watched it every time we were at my grandparents' house, which was pretty much every school vacation and holiday. I could never get enough of it and it is for sure my favorite childhood movie. It brings back lots of wonderful memories. I watched so many times, that the tape is in poor condition now. I hadn't seen the movies in decades, but once in a while I thought about it and wished and wondered if there was a way to get it on VHS or DVD. After my grandfather past away 2 years ago, I started to bug my dad, to see if he could make me a copy on DVD somehow. It wasn't easy since I grew up in Holland and am now living in the united states and the systems aren't always compatible. Well, he managed to get me the copy and at first it wouldn't play, but I tried it again recently on my powerbook and it worked, jippie. From copying the quality hasn't gotten any better, but it is watchable. I can't wait to show it to my 1 year old daughter, when she 's a little older. It would be great if it was for sale one day, in good shape, I know it would mean a lot to many people. It's too great to keep from our next generation and ourselves. I have an English copy with dutch sub-titles, again not in great condition, but watchable. so, if anyone has info let me know, thanks so much. :)

Bring Christmas of days past into our hearts again! Songs like "Mommy" are forever classics, and so is this tale.
It grieves me to see A-Moe steal one of the greatest lines/songs from this great musical...This musical ment so much to me when I saw it in '94 here in Oslo..."Mommy's home. Now you can open the door. Don't be afaid now, not anymore. Mom is home. She's brought for each one of you strawberry, coated with honeydew.Only you and I can sing this song that noone knows. Listen to each word carefully. And before you all come running quickly to the door. Be sure the only one you open for is me."It simply puts tears in my eyes.
