Here Comes Peter Cottontail (1971 TV Movie)
5/10
never saw as a kid, so no nostalgia to carry me over

Came across this curio and decided to watch it for Easter. And now I'm going to be the first negative IMDB user reviewer. Because this is kinda boring.

Basically an episodic romp through time, this just has the good guy trying to give away eggs and the bad guy trying to stop him. There's magic and time travel and a talking worm but no sense of momentum. Also it doesn't make any sense.

And sure, it's for kids, but this is from the folks behind Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and that had interesting, affecting characters and an actual story and that seems like the minimum one can ask for.

There is one good song (for Valentine's day) which could be a great free love anthem, but outside of that it's really pretty unimpressive.

So if you have fond memories of this from childhood, enjoy. If you've never seen it, don't bother.
