5.0 out of 5 stars Timeless comedy 24 July 2011
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
A film that's sidesplitting, gentle and yet exciting and dreamlike...There are not enough children's films like this. I feel sorry for children today, growing up with Spy Kids and Harry Potter with their tedious empowerment fantasies and whining. Pee-Wee's Big Adventure will spellbind everyone but the most cynical and idiotic with it's instantly engaging story and characters: names of characters such as Dottie (in love with Pee-Wee Herman), Francis Buxton (pronounced BUCKS - TONNE) and Simone (she wants to go to France) tell you all you need to know about the characters.
The film, in fact, feels like a fourth or fifth in a series with self-evident characters and a huge emphasis on the surreal and inexplicable (some intentional - the way Pee-Wee gains enterance to the Buxton house, some not - the remnants of Amazing Larry's role in the film), which only enhances the films value for repeat viewers. I am totally in love with the world of this film and you will be too.

3.0 out of 5 stars Bright and hugely colourful zany comedy. 19 Nov 2000
By A Customer
Format:VHS Tape
You really need to be in the right mood to fully enjoy and appreciate the qualities of this film, Burton's first feature as director following his tour of duty as a Disney animator. His film-making apprenticeship is certainly reflected in this debut outing, a bright and hugely colourful zany comedy made in the style of a feature cartoon. Some of the set-pieces are truly original and brimming with vitality and off-beat humour. But you have to be at ease with the character of the eponymous hero, a grown-up body encompassing the soul and behaviour of a ten-year old, and an exaggerated ten-year old at that. Clearly there was sufficient interest in the character created by Reubens ...to spawn a sequel, "Big Top Pee-Wee". If you are unable to assimilate his creation into your sympathy, his adventures become galling as a result of his very screen presence and it is likely that the visual delights of the film will be lost to you. However, if you can accept Pee-Wee into your heart, you will be able to enjoy a hugely entertaining, at times very funny, and certainly very original picture bathed in a vividness and colourfulness which contrasts so markedly with the same director's "Batman", only four years later.

This is much more than a story about a 'boy' who loses his favourite possesion - his bike - and goes on a desperate quest to retrieve it. As with all early Pee-Wee Herman work, it has an energetic, imaginative approach with a comically infantile yet twisted feel to the humour, which is blatently meant to appeal to adults. This is most certainly the best of the two Pee-Wee Herman films.
