Hey, Mister Sack! This is another thoroughly enjoyable collection of Peanuts vignettes (along the lines of the equally good "Charlie Brown Celebration"). Two of the best storylines involve Charlie Brown on the run:
First, he runs to camp, away from the urban stresses that have given his head a baseball-like appearance (via some sort of psychosomatic rash). The scenes at camp are hilarious: His face covered with a paper bag, he earns newfound respect from other campers who regard him as the enigmatic and sagacious "Mr. Sack."
Second, Charlie Brown is on the run from a plants' rights organization after he bites the kite eating tree. The box-inhabiting fugitive tries to begin a new life as the coach of a tiny tykes baseball team. His little players are cute toddlers, but barely ball players.
I hadn't seen this Peanuts special before I bought it for our young kids. It makes all of us laugh, and the voice characterizations of the young supporting characters are particularly charming. "Adventure" is a worthy addition to a Peanuts video library.
It's More Than ONE Adventure, Charlie Brown! This video is very simmilar to A Charlie Brown Celebration and The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show videos. Instead of 1 30-minute story, you have several stories in 45 minutes. Some of the adventures include Charlie Brown having a rash on his head (looking very much like a baseball!), Lucy burying Linus' blanket and then using it as a kite, Peppermint Patty claiming a butterfly on her nose is really an angel, and Charlie Brown taking a bite out of the kite eating tree (and later stearing clear of the Environmental Society). It's more than one adventure, Charlie Brown, it's a SERIES of adventures!
