Barney (2012 Video) User Reviews

We had to watch it again - once just isn't enough!

Barney was the first DVD I had seen where you get to control the story as the movie goes! You get to choose what the actors should do at different stages in the movie. The whole family had great fun deciding on the options and seeing what would happen.

We ended up watching it again so that we could chose different options it was great fun!

If you ever read the "Choose your own adventure" books then you will love this adventure movie.

Set in the gorgeous Australian bush, two young hikers come across some suspicious activity...what should they do? Well, you get to chose. Should they take the safe option or be brave and risk everything?

Highly recommend!

A really fun movie to watch with friends

In this movie you actually have to decide what the main characters should do next. When the characters are in danger or a tough decision needs to be made, you are given options to choose from. I watched it with two of my girlfriends and we had so much fun. I really wanted Sam and Andy, the main characters, to escape and I was continuously on the edge of my seat. We spent all night watching this movie and what made it really fun was that my friends and I were continuously talking about whether we had made the right decision, or what option we should choose next. I have never felt so involved in a movie and that is why I like it so much. I wish there were more people who had seen it so that I could talk about it more.

I love movies like Pirates of the Caribbean with their big star casts and grand scale sets but this movie did not need that. The movie felt very real and engaged me like no other movie has. The real-life set of Mt Barney is beautiful and, as an Aussie girl, I am ashamed to say that I did not even know of the mountain until I saw this film. Pop a bottle of champers and watch it with a friend!
