| Editorial Reviews:
VeggieTales goes Dickensian for this sprightly and inventive take on the Christian significance of Easter. Greedy Ebenezer Nezzer, a Scrooge equivalent and manufacturer of such Easter kitsch as plastic eggs and mechanical chickens, mounts a huge commercial campaign to reap further profits from a day that should be about remembering the resurrection of Jesus. With series regulars Bob the Tomato (cast, fittingly, as a Bob Cratchit type) and Larry the Cucumber on board, An Easter Carol finds Ebenezer led by a music-box angel named Hope (voiced by Rebecca S. James) through a spectral journey to discover the real meaning of Christ's death and return. As usual, the animation is lively but the script is less heavy-handed than some other Biblically inspired VeggieTales. Production art includes some wonderful stained glass backgrounds. The overall effect is clever and pleasing. --Tom Keogh

An ideal movie July 9, 2010
Jolene
Our six year old daughter loves this movie as she does her other VeggieTales videos. For a while this was her most watched video and even now she goes back to it. I love how it puts a Charles Dickens twist into the plot by having Ebeneezer be visited by the 3 ghosts of Easter. It is really important to teach kids that Easter is more than bunnies and plastic eggs. This video is a great tool to help accomplish just that.

I shipped the video to my granddaughter out of state so really don't know anything about it.

My family and I are great VeggieTales fans and we recently got this DVD for, of course, Easter.
We were all kind of underwhelmed. It just seems like whoever creates their music or lyrics was on vacation when this DVD was made. Nothing that really sticks with you or that you find yourself humming later in the day.
And I hate to be so critical, I feel guilty b/c these guys have made so much quality entertainment for children...but that's exactly why I have to say it...it's just not that great and way below the standard that they set years ago. "Where's God When I'm S-s-s-scared?", "Madame Blueberry", "King George and the Ducky," these are fantastic. I wish this one had been up to par with these.
I haven't bought any of their recent releases, or even know if they have any recent releases, but I hope they're better than this.
 Simply fun and pleasing for little ones March 31, 2008

My 8 month old loves loves loves the Veggie Tales Easter Carol. He doesn't care much for Baby Einstein but he loves Veggie Tales and laughs and squirms with delight when they sing. I would definitely recommend this.
Pretty good -- my kids like the Ebeneezer Nezzer character September 10, 2007

This video is fun. It brings back "Mr. Nezzer" and this time, there is an Easter Egg/Easter Bunny factory.
My reason for giving it only 4 stars is that the song distorts the Bible verse from "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life" to "the way, the truth, and the LIGHT" -- better for the rhymes, but it's not what Jesus said. So I find myself in the position, each time we watch it, of hitting "mute" for that line and singing it the right way. Slightly annoying. But the kids love the show, so I have to recommend it, despite that one flaw.
