The Best of Elmo 2
SCORE: 81
The Best of Elmo 2 tells the story of MemoryBot who needs memory
before he runs out of charge. Elmo helps out by the robot by remembering
some of his best little bits. There are quite a few special guests on
this DVD. Jack Black, Adam Sandler, Diane Sawyer, Destiny Child, and Goo
Goo Dolls are some of the guests. Expect a lot of singing and dancing in
The Best of Elmo 2.
If you have ever seen an Elmo show, or Sesame Street then you know what
to expect. The Best of Elmo 2 contains a collage of humans, puppets, and
people in costumes (like Big Bird). There are various sets used for the
show which range. Some are more impressive than others. I did not see
any offensive images while watching The Best of Elmo 2.
Almost every song in The Best of Elmo 2 is fantastic. Children really
get into the songs, and I enjoyed a few of them myself. Many of the
lessons are given to children in an entertaining way that will help them
remember. I enjoyed counting, and the alphabet personally. The Best of
Elmo 2 lets kids be kids, and I think that is very important. Too many
places try to have kids grow up way too soon.
The Best of Elmo 2 can be played in English or Spanish. There are three
previews to other DVDs. Sadly that is where the extras end. There are no
other bonuses on The Best of Elmo 2. This DVD is 49 minutes long, so
that needs to be kept in mind when you are deciding whether to purchase
this product or not. Young children really get into Elmo, but older
children are not so receptive.
I found the story in The Best of Elmo 2 to be rather clever. Adults will
pick up a few inside jokes like memory in terms of machines. The menu
screens exhibit an intelligent design. I had no issues navigating
through the menu screens of The Best of Elmo 2. I can see quite a few
families enjoying The Best of Elmo 2 on DVD.
The Best of Elmo 2 teaches going outside, counting, walking, be what you
want to be, believing in yourself, trying what you want to try, being
persistent, feeling pride, learning the alphabet, having an imagination,
wearing disguises, rhyming, and doing the robot dance. Kids really get
into The Best of Elmo 2. I really like how caring Elmo is, and how he
helps the robot.
