Joanna T @aerialgirly92 Sep 6, 2026 It's an ok Disney movie. I can see why I've never watched it before & why it isn't as popular as Disney princess movies. This one def had a lot of fantasy + adventure, which isn't bad but none of the songs were catchy enough to stick. Story: James has 2 mean aunties who he lives w/ since his parents died. He dreams of going away, maybe to New York, where his parents promised they would vacation. 1 day a man shows up & gives him magical green specks. They cause a tree to produce a giant peach. The aunts take advantage of this for tourism money. James befriends bugs who he can talk to due to green magic. They're in the peach when it rolls out to ocean. They enslave seagulls to sail them. They eat some peach for food. They make it to NY. James refuses to go back to aunts. The bugs grow big. They all become family & continue on their journey. They all end up living big lives in NY.

O stop-motion é bem feito, mas a narrativa e os personagens insetos geram mais estranhamento do que diversão.

The sea pirates sequence is easily the best in the film. I’m kind of surprised how well this film is received here as it’s very British with its humor.

The giant peach itself is mesmerizing, moving through the story in three dimensions with breathtaking detail. The characters are memorable and fully developed. Miss Glowworm, Miss Spider, Mr. Cricket, Mr. Ladybug, and the rest of the ensemble all contribute to the story’s emotional and comedic moments. The voice acting is exceptional, capturing each personality perfectly and adding depth to the fantastical setting. The film balances whimsy, humor, and heart, keeping viewers invested in James’s journey while marveling at the world around him. Its world-building is remarkable, creating immersive settings that could easily inspire interactive experiences or theme park attractions. Overall, James and the Giant Peach deserves more recognition for its innovative approach See more Read all reviews
