Big Top Pee-Wee

I love this movie for all the best reasons it provides. The story, the comedy and the main ingredient: PeeWee Herman!As a longtime fan, this classic comedy is forever in my playlist of family favorites. ❤️

Came exactly as described in excellent condition. No scratches and shipped fast

Touche Pee-wee Herman ...MORE LAUGHS! MORE oddities to catch the audience off guard and laugh, laugh, laugh! Truly an original on this orb we spin around on mindlessly! Great sequel forcing me to see the 3rd film in the Pee-wee Herman trilogy! ...and scout out Pee-wee's Playhouse series!

Granted, Big Top Pee Wee does not promise the type of guffaw humor we enjoyed in Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, but it is a really good movie. The humor is a bit more mature. This might be considered a weakness of the film on the surface. It is the immaturity of the humor that we loved so much in Big Adventure. However, having been of the target age when Big Adventure and subsequently Big Top came out, as I grew up, so did Pee-Wee.My favorite is still the opening dream-sequence in which Pee-Wee is incognito, dressed as Abraham Lincoln to avoid his inexplicably large group of post-adolescent female fans who are waiting for him outside of the venue in which he performed his trapeze act. One fan, unaffected by the fact that a man who had been dead for almost a hundred years at that point, breathlessly asks for "Lincoln's" autograph, professing "I'm such a big fan!" Pee-Wee's phony Lincoln beard is then ripped off and the girls shriek with delight and chase after him.This opening sequence, though not the only highlight of this campy delight, truly captures the essence of Pee-Wee humor. It is above all bizarre. But the uniqueness of Pee-Wee's world is its ability to transcend time, dimension, and most of all, logic. This was true in Pee-Wee's Playhouse and Big Adventure, but I think Big Top captures this most.The common dream sequence as an opening scene to each movie sets the tone for each movie. When comparing the two, the dream sequence that opens Big Adventure pales in comparison. Big Top maintains the surrealistic tone of the Lincoln scene throughout the film. The circus owner's wife, Midge Montana is just a few inches tall. Innuendoes between her and her husband set the imagination free. Pee-Wee's compulsively keeps lunch date records in his personal organizer, despite the fact that he has lunch at the same time with the neurotic girlfriend. Pee-Wee's inexplicable agricultural genius made for one of the most enduring images of my childhood-the hotdog tree. This is really funny stuff.The movie is not without its faults, of course. Most of them are found in the somewhat schlocky romance between Pee-Wee and the female acrobat. I also didn't care for the ending, where Pee-Wee solves the circus' financial crisis by turning all of the grumpy towns people into children. It sort of gives off a creepy Cocoon-like feeling, which I didn't particularly appreciate as an end-note.But otherwise, I hold this movie dear. Almost as dear as his first movie, but in movies we rarely see a sequel (of sorts) outshine the original.

Pee-wee Herman at his best! There are some really great jokes paired with a great cast. Kris Kristofferson is a treat!

I love my movies! Classic feeling happy afterwards flick full of romance and farm animals!

My adult son who has special needs is a Pee-Wee Herman fan because Pee-Wee's antics make him laugh and laugh. Although I am not a fan of "Big Top Pee-Wee" due to its risqué nature, my son comprehends only the silliness of the movie. My son is not gentle with DVDs and, thus, has owned multiple copies of this movie. I am pleased to still be able to purchase it. It arrived in pristine condition.
