Product Description: In the new adventures of Spanky and Our Gang, their \""boys only\"" club is threatened when Alfalfa falls in love, their clubhouse burns down, and their go-cart is stolen. Genre: Feature Film-Comedy Rating: PG Release Date: 5-JAN-1999 Media Type: DVD
Amazon.com: Kids may enjoy the slapstick of this modern reworking of the old Our Gang comedies, but parents who grew up watching them on TV (or grandparents who saw them at theaters) will wonder why anyone would want to be involved in this pathetic remake. Directed by Penelope Spheeris, the film takes look-alike kids and casts them as Spanky, Alfalfa, Buckwheat, and the rest, minus any sense of what made the old Hal Roach comedies funny. Instead of kids being kids, these are kids doing shtick while recycling such old bits as the He-Man Woman Haters Club, the kids' go-cart race, and Spanky and Alfalfa dressing as girls. Devoid of charm or wit. --Marshall Fine

Little Rascals DVD Clean funny movie. My grandkids and I have watched it over and over. We laugh just as hard each time. Recommend for kids and adults.
thank you! DVD arrived in good packaging and timely manner, in time for Christmas. Thank you so much! MY nieces love this movie =)
The Little Rascals I really enjoyed watching The Little Rascals when I was a kid. Now my kids can this one. My son really likes this movie. He even does the Hi sign.
Great Fun for Kids of All Ages. OK, yes, its a great movie for kids, but I think its even better for adults. Like all the great, classic "kids" humor (vintage Disney, Hanna-Barbera, Sponge Bob, etc.), its really targeted for adults, or at least I believe, you have to be an adult to get all of the fantastic humor.
This movie reminded me of my own kids at their funniest. The attitude seemed perfect. For this, I'm not sure who to credit other than Penelope Spheeris, but all of the kids acting in this movie seemed relaxed, fun-loving, and outrageously humorous. Not to take anything away form the "mature" actors - There were some fantasic cameos including Mel Brooks, Reba McEntire, Whoopi Goldberg, Darryl Hanna, George Wendt, and many others.
"If you were my children, I'd punish you." "If we were your children, we'd punish ourselves."
"What is your bank account number?" "Seven." "Seven?" "Four?"
"Quick! Call 911." "But I don't know the number." "Me neither."
When your kids aren't around, take it out, watch it yourself, and have a good laugh.
