VeggieTales - Rack, Shack, and Benny

Pros: Highly entertaining with a positive message

Cons: Makes the vegetables in my refrigerator seem boring by comparison

The Bottom Line: is a series of three words written in bold-faced type immediately above.

Review: Would you worship a 90' tall golden bunny to avoid being cast into a fully-stoked, fiery furnace with a history of rapidly incinerating "bad bunnies"? That is the dilemma which faces Rack, Shack, and Benny; the heroes of Big Idea's 1995 production ...

Pros: deals with a very pertinent problem

Cons: when Laura said, "sing the song; everybody's doing it" no one was doing ANYTHING!

The Bottom Line: A lively retelling of the biblical story, with the added appeal of chocolate bunnies.

Review: Loosely based on the Biblical account of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednago (I have a feeling I butchered those names), this is the story of Rack, Shack and Benny, a trio of factory workers portrayed by Bob the Tomato, Larry the Cucumber and Junior ...

Pros: Too many to list!

Cons: none

The Bottom Line: This movie not only entertains children, but it teaches them some valuable lessons about peer pressure.

Pros: Excellent Source of Christian Entertainment

Cons: NOT LONG ENOUGH

Review: A good friend of mine has a 3 year old that adores Veggie Tales, and since we are both Christian moms, I value her choice of entertainment for her kids. When my first son was 1, I bought him his first Veggie Tales video, and he LOVES IT! I have watched...

Pros: Good Christian Values, Cute Songs, Lovable Characters

Cons: Computer Animation

The Bottom Line: This is video is suitable for all ages and shows great Christian values.

Review: After I watched two tapes of VeggieTales with friends that were already hooked on them, I had to collect the cartoons myself. At first I couldn’t get past the bad computer animation; however, the humor these cartoons have is far above the average child....

Pros: Makes Bible story fun and accessible

Cons: Hard to think of one

Review: One of the many benefits of having a child is the rediscovery of children's shows--and what a change since I was in diapers!

The Veggie Tales are so wonderful, that there are times when my husband and I forget that the video is supposed to be...

Pros: Well-made, great message, great music

Cons: NONE

Review: This video is a MUST-SEE for everyone. Too bad "entertainment" today doesn't encompass the same level of quality in writing, acting, scenery, message content, musical score or filming that the Veggie Tales series has.

Rack, Shack and...

Pros: Good lesson in handling peer pressure

Cons: -

Review: I can't say enough about Veggie Tales, they are just my favorites and my kids love them too. Rack, Shack and Benny is one of my favorites, as entertaining for my kids as it is hilarious for my husband and me to watch with them. Another great lesson in...

Pros: Great for kids - parents will like it too

Cons: There are none...

The Bottom Line: Kids will love every minute of this computer animated cartoon. They will memorize and sing the songs again and again and again and again and again...

Review: In case you have never seen any of the Veggie Tales movies, they are computer animated cartoons that teach kids Bible Stories. The characters in the movies are Vegetables, thus the title Veggie Tales. Makes sense, huh?

This movie in...

Pros: Great modern day version of a popular bible story

Cons: none

Review: Rack,Shack, and Benny is a modern day version about the three
Hebrew children, Shadrach,Meshach, and Abednego, in the
Old Testament book of Daniel. Bob the Tomato, Larry the
Cucumber, and Jr. Asparagus star as Rack, Shack, and Benny...
