Product Description
The two films starring eponymous talking pig Babe are collected together here: BABE (Full Screen) and BABE: PIG IN THE CITY(Widescreen). In BABE, a little pig with big dreams teaches himself to be a sheepdog in this marvelous fantasy based on Dick King-Smith's children's novel "The Sheep-Pig." When an old farmer wins a piglet at a carnival by guessing its weight, be brings the oinker, named Babe, home. At first, the little animal feels confused and lonely. But a maternal collie, who just delivered her own litter, welcomes Babe into her family, and teaches him about farm life. Soon the precious pig proves that he can be a pretty valuable asset to the farmer and his wife - in a most unexpected way. Special effects allow the entire menagerie of farm animals to speak throughout this magical live-action tale. BABE: PIG IN THE CITY is the sequel to the critically acclaimed original picture that died at the box office, but don't let that scare you. This was one of 1998's most charming, entertaining works. Great fun that the whole family can enjoy.

A birthday gift for my 2 yr. old granddaughter. My other grandchildren loved this movie and I expect a repeat reaction. I love this pig.
 Can't decide which movie is better April 9, 2009
Robert Nemtusak
These could be the best "animal movies" of all time.
"Benji" didn't talk, and "Milo and Otis" sounded like Dudley Moore.
All kidding aside, both "Babe" and "Pig in the City" are modern classics, they're perfect for anybody with a soul.
Babe Stands Alone March 29, 2009

In short Babe is just about perfect film with light humor and allusions to deeper insights. However "Babe in the City" though decent was a little more average depending more on wild antics along with crazy sets, props, and costumes. "Babe in the City" still had some of the allusions to deeper issues concerning animal rights which made think more of this film than I normally would. It's convenient that both of these films are together but in my opinion "Babe" is a stand alone film by itself; And if I had a hankering would probably just stick with re-watching the first.
Arguably the greatest children's movie ever made. March 15, 2009
Jacob Gowans (Ohio)
Babe is a film for the ages. No child should have to grow up without seeing this film. It preaches without being preachy; it is funny, sad, and incredibly enjoyable. I don't know who I like more in this film: James Cromwell as Arthur Hoggett or the voice actor of Babe (I forget the name), but every performance in the film whether voice or not, is just spot on.
The story is told in chapters, like a book, though all are connected to an overarching story about Babe's quest to find himself and his role amidst an array of farm animals trying to fit him into his "niche."
If you're looking for a fun film your whole family can watch, laugh at, and enjoy, don't rent Babe, buy it! You won't regret it.
