JAM Reviews Strawberry Shortcake: The Glimmerberry Ball Movie from American Greetings & 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment


Strawberry Shortcake: The Glimmerberry Ball Movie: Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment and American Greetings
Review by JAM

Wintertime is coming and the gang is getting ready for the appearance of the Glimmerberrys! Join Strawberry and her friends in this new CGI adventure as presents are exchanged, Glimmerberry lanterns are carved, and a ball is prepared for. As usual with our fruity friends disputes happen, circumstances intervene, but they all come together to learn important lessons about friendship and respect.

Check out the issues with re-gifting and their fight against nature (also known as chipmunks) as highlights from this movie.

JAMS Ink on Strawberry Shortcake: The Glimmerberry Ball Movie

I enjoy watching the CGI Shortcakes with my little girls because it is kind of fun seeing the updates through the years. Kind of like the newest Justice League animation from a couple years back compared to my memories of the Super Friends cartoons, the Strawberry updates are fun to see. This one is good for my girls at least in talking about sharing, respecting one another, and with working together (which seems to be a common theme in the majority of Strawberry Shortcake movies.

Another reason they loved it was the dress-up gowns. Girls love pretty gowns, and this movie was no different. It really is such a good way to teach life lessons while enjoying the magic of CGI animation.
