Roald Dahl's modern classic for children becomes a delightful combination of live action and stop-motion animation by the team that made The Nightmare Before Christmas: director Henry Selick and producers Tim Burton (Batman) and Denise Di Novi. The story concerns young James (played for real and through voice-overs by Paul Terry), who is orphaned and left in the charge of two cruel aunts (Miriam Margolyes, Joanna Lumley). Rescued by a mysterious fellow (Pete Postlethwaite), James ends up inside a giant peach, drifting over the Atlantic Ocean in the company of a gentleman grasshopper (voiced by Simon Callow), a fast-talking centipede (Richard Dreyfuss), an anxious earthworm (David Thewlis), a matronly ladybug (Jane Leeves), and a sexy spider (Susan Sarandon). The collection of actors and their creepy-crawly alter egos are a delight, especially when some of the song-and-dance numbers (tunes are written by Randy Newman) get everyone going. --Tom Keogh. |

Science goes "Boing!" when Bill Nye shows up, and this fast-moving installment of his popular show is no exception. Reptiles & Insects--Leapin' Lizards! uses the Science Guy's trademark wacky sounds and visual effects to get across a wide range of facts about some of our cold-blooded relatives and, as an added bonus, makes science and scientists look cool. We get to see venomous snakes, hissing cockroaches, and angry crocodiles in the safety of the living room. Nye knows that our first response is to say "Yuck!" but he gets past that by asking questions: What do lizards eat? How do bees see? And what's really going on inside that ant farm? You'll find all the answers in Reptiles & Insects--Leapin' Lizards! --Rob Lightner. |

CNN's Millennium Boxed Set

|
A thousand years in 10 hours is an ambitious project, to say the least. But the team at CNN succeeds with its now-typical aplomb, as the team that brought us Cold War shares with us Millennium. "We know the history of our own country," narrator Ben Kingsley intones. But this series purports to give us "history from a global perspective, not through the eyes of the West." Using reenactments and impressive computer graphics--used with inspiration for everything from rebuilding the 11th-century Pueblo Bonito to representing Freud's idea of the subconscious--the history of the world for the past 1,000 years is re-created. |

Jane Fonda on Valium--that's what Leslie Sansone seems like in Walk & Firm for Older Adults. But that's a good thing, especially if you're the "older" person this half-hour is aimed at. Sansone takes you through her gentle in-home walking program with a peppy (but not too chipper) spirit on a set that looks like a barely furnished living room. She doesn't bother with a cast of dozens--it's just you and your private exercise guru. |
