Alternate Ending

Tim Brayton

Thumbelina herself remains a complete drip of a character, insipidly mewling her way through the film's thankfully concise running time.

Under the authorship of Barry Manilow, it is not that the 'Thumbelina's' songs are abhorrent, is that, being presented every ten minutes in an hour and a half movie, they end up exhausting the viewer to unbearable limits. [Full Review in Spanish]

I just think it's a fun little fairy tale [but] it's not good as The Lion King by any stretch of the imagination.

Magical, musical story is a classic fairy tale.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that Thumbelina, a adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen's story, will delight fans of fairies and princesses, but also includes some tension and mild peril. There are themes of kidnapping and marriage to the wrong fellow for the wrong reasons, but the happily-ever-after is solidly in place.
