    Excellent!

    I can not believe some of the peoples comments about this movie being stupid. What did you expect from a kids movie, to come out of it feeling inspired? No, it's just a happy-go-lucky kids movie which i can proudly say i have watched over and over again to this day! And one user commented 'How do the kids expect to marry women in the future, with a Woman Haters club' ? Oh my god, get over yourself! Although i haven't seen the original to this, i can praise this version as a feel good film.

    The basic plot is about Spanky and Alfalfa, childhood friends, who have a group called the 'He-man Women Haters club' with their other pals Porky, Buckwheat, Froggy and so on. Though Secretly, Alfalfa loves girls and has a girlfriend,Darla, who he one day has lunch with in the Boys club! When the boys find out Alfalfa lied, they ruin his lunch with Darla (Kitty Litter sandwiches and so-called grape juice!). Unfortunately and accidentally, the clubhouse burns on fire, and the boys must enter a go kart race to win money to fund repairs for their clubhouse! An excellent movie whatever other people say! 9/10 and im sticking to it!

    brats run amok

    I laughed my head off at these ill behaved little rapscallions. However, in the real world I would have cheerfully kicked their rascally little butts. Nothing realistic about the behavior of these kids at all, but I don't think that was intended. Lots of zany antics [some re-done from the old shorts from years back] and many belly laughs left me feeling good after the film was over. Thumbs up.

    Great

    I love this movie. To me it's one best kids movies ever, it just brings you back to those innocent times of being a child. It's fun, its cool, its when you start to notice girls for the 1st time. This is one for the ages. It still resonates with young kids today. It has genuine performances by child actors.

    It is everything you want in a kids movie and more.

    Big thumbs up from me

    It's girls will be girls

    Boys will be boys

    Horrible imitation of a classic series!

    Horrible! I grew up watching the classic original "Our Gang" comedies, which were genuinely funny and the kids were real and likeable. This movie missed the boat completely. Most of the kids in this new movie are nauseating. The dialogue is corny and not funny. Rent some of the originals instead -- they show much more originality, humor, talent and most of all, heart.

    still reaching new audiences

    for those of you who seem to think this movie is terrible, you are quite closed minded. just as you have grown up with the originals, many children have grown up with this movie, i myself being one of them. this movie came out when i was seven i stil find just as enchanting now as i did then. i also grew up with the originals from my parents and still enjoy those. the old black and white films are not going to appeal to every child out there, which this movie was targeted at. in my opinion, this movie was meant to slightly bridge a generation gap. parents wanted their children to see this movie and, yes, relive their own nostalgia. it was marketed towards the kids and you have no right to judge a movie that you haven't grown up on and have seen as an adult. perhaps if you were a child when it first came out, you would appreciated a little more. i think it was a great idea for the film makers to remake these classics because it does bridge the generation gap a little bit more. obviously those of you that have seen it, its because of you nostalgia towards the old ones, or because of you children. either way, you should have great respect for those who inspired this movie. that future children will be able to enjoy it. i hope they do keep making remakes so one day my children can enjoy them as much as i have. their are some movies that you can't compare remakes to, one of them is casablanca. worst comparison ever.

    • Trivia
      Before filming each day, Penelope Spheeris would hug each child actor to ensure closeness and trust in the group.
    • Goofs
      Before Darla kisses Alfalfa in the boat, she flattens down his cowlick (at 10:53 on the DVD) but in the next shot (from behind Alfalfa at 10:56) it is still standing up. It then *pings* back up in the next shot (at around 59 mins). The cowlick is only visible at 10:56 in Full Frame format remastered from the original "spherical" (non-anamorphic) 35 mm negatives and is not visible in the Wide Screen format (which does not show the full height of the negatives). It is not a goof by the film makers, but rather by those who released the film in Full Frame format.
    • Quotes

      [Delivering Alfalfa's letter to Darla]

      Buckwheat: Dear Darla, I hate your stinking guts. You make me vomit. You're scum between my toes! Love, Alfalfa.

    • Crazy credits
      The end credits features two blooper montages with one featuring the main cast in the first half while the second half contained the other featuring the special guest stars.
    • Alternate versions
      The broadcast television version prepared for broadcast on ABC and Freeform is extended by several minutes, with the following additional material:
      • Porky and Buckwheat both figure out through Petey that the note is for an emergency meeting.
      • Additional dialogue in the He-Man Woman ('womun') Haters Club.
      • Additional dialogue between Alfalfa and Darla on the boat.
      • Right before the clubhouse fire, Stymie remarks "What's that smell?" (this better explains why Alfalfa looks in the clubhouse).
      • During the clubhouse fire, a fire truck shows up which the rascals think is for them, but it drives past and turns down another street.
      • Additional dialogue during the court scene.
      • The gag with the two bearded men at the bank is taken further. Mr. Welling thinks it's another trick and grabs their beards, angering them and losing their business of investing $2 million dollars.
      • When Buckwheat is searching for the note for Darla, she also adds: "Is this going to take all day?"
      • After Butch says "This will be like stealing candy from a baby", Woim also says, "Last time we stole candy, we ended up with the chicken pox."
      • Alfalfa tells Petey that love got him "conviction, probation, a frog in his leotard, and a butt naked chase".
      • When Alfalfa asks to be in the talent show, Ms. Crabtree says that they're all booked up. Alfalfa then lies and says his aunt would die if she didn't hear him sing.
      • Darla confronts Alfalfa after he sings at the talent show and Alfalfa replies that he heard her compliment him, inadvertently revealing that it was him at the ballet recital. Waldo then tells Alfalfa that he's entered in the race.
      • During the building of 'The New Blur' montage, two of the club members steal the wheels off of a baby carriage.
