Blue bounds into her first feature-length film ready to sing. She gets sidetracked along the way, of course, but that's part of the brilliant Blue's Clues formula. Each half-hour TV show presents engaging, easy-to-grasp mini-mysteries that are within toddlers' reach. This time Blue; her huge-eyed, slightly loopy human companion, Steve; and their cadre of talking-object friends are scurrying around, preparing for a backyard music show that day. Everybody picks a number to perform; Blue's is a duet with Tickety Tock, but the clock contracts laryngitis. Who will be Blue's new partner? A game of Blue's Clues reveals the hardly reluctant replacement. The standard discovery of three clues followed by the usual wind-down song would add up to a colossal disappointment in a feature film, so substantial rounding-out is provided. Steve stumbles onto a keyboard inhabited by a note called G- Clef (the unmistakable voice of Ray Charles), who gives a tour of how to make a song. First you pick the notes, then you work on rhythm, then comes tempo, and, last but not least, "you've got to give it soul." This movie's themes include perseverance (Tickety Tock can't sing but finds a way to contribute anyway) and self-empowerment. Blue's Big Musical Movie is a feast for little eyes and ears; the sets are so colorful they hurt grown-up eyes, and the songs--especially the one that gets the Charles treatment--are all sing-along-with-me winners. --Tammy La Gorce

fantastic (2005-08-27)  I love the songs in this video-- especially the silly hat song. I sing it all the time. Oh yeah, and my little boys love the movie, too! It is clearly a favorite of all the blue's clues.
Excellent entertainment for both kids & parents! (2004-07-03) My boys (ages 3 1/2 & nearly 2) love this movie... and frankly, even after what must be 100+ viewings, so do I. It's a wonderful story full of humor, great original music, and worthwhile educational segments. It will have you and your kids humming its tunes and dancing in the living room. Very well-made and fun movie. Steve and Blue have out-done themselves with this one. Definitely among the favorites in our house!
Top of the List for all our Blue's Clues Videos (2004-06-03) We have almost all the Blue's Clues videos, and I thought my three year, 10-month old son had outgrown them since he doesn't watch them as frequently anymore. I decided to order this anyway, and since it arrived three days ago, we've been watching it at least three times a day. Good music, good story line, good acting. And because of the extended story line, we can even have a little discussion about what the various characters are feeling. The lesson about music with the cool-talking G-clef is wonderful, of course.
One of the best preschool videos (2004-01-28) I think that all of the old Steve episodes of Blues Clues are works of genius, and this Steve movie is even better for all the thought and effort that obviously went into it. It is so much more educational on the subject of music than the usual vidoes that merely play music in the background. This one discusses the entire process of creating a song, with all of its components, it showcases several different styles of music, and it illustrates the concept of a performance and what goes into it. The characters are the same as on the show, and the information they convey feels casual and fun despite being meticulously written and timed. My 3 kids love this movie. It is a staple in our car and has become their reference point for understanding a few different concepts related to music and performing. Now if only they'd put more old steve episodes on DVD!
What a disappointment! (2003-10-17)  Blue's Clues (with Steve) is my 3 year old daughter's favorite show. We were very excited when the DVD finally arrived and we sat down all together to watch the movie. Unfortunately, all the way through the movie there were very annoying interferences due to manufacturer's disc defects. The DVD signal would disappear throughout the movie and a regular TV program would come on for 1-2 minutes instead. The most unfortunate moment was in the end, when Steve finally lands on his thinking chair with all 3 clues in his hands. The whole episode was erased from the DVD. We returned the DVD back (...) and received a replacement - the same story!! And the same spots on DVD were damaged. Desperate and determined to show my daughter the whole movie, I finally purchased a copy from our local video store. Guess what... it was damaged in the same very spots as the two previous bad copies (...)! I exchanged it again -- and received another bad copy with the same exact damage!!! However, to give credit to the movie creators, my daughter still was watching it at least 2-3 times daily, this is how much she loved whatever she could see. We received an apology (...) and advice from the local video store to contact the manufacturer directly for a good copy. (...) Maybe the movie itself deserves a much better rating, but when you are unable to watch it without constant interruptions, natural frustration takes over and there is no enjoyment and no point in bothering to put it on. What a waste of time and money.
