Well.. Sodor's Legend of the Lost Treasure... It's stunning in a lot of ways. You might have seen by the title that this movie ranks at the very tippity-top of my T&F tier list, and with good reason. I think the animation is at it's peak, with the amount of detail, blurring and reflection put into the most minor of things, then there's the big sets. They're AMAZING, expansive and look beautiful. The music is stunning. This was Robert. Hartshorne's final (cannon) Thomas production to do the music, and by God did he end it on a high note. They legit hired a FULL ORCHESTRA to do the music in this movie, and it really shows, especially in the climax. All the characters, whether returning, new or current were all portrayed very well here. Sailor John is a charming yet intimidating main antagonist, Skiff's a nice character who has a good moral conflict story, and it was amazing to see Mike, Rex and Bert from the Railway Series in the TV show. Lots of others like, Daisy, Marion, and Jack (and the Pack) were all good as well for the time they got. Speaking of which, there's a very amusing side plot where the show makes fun of both Olivers, not much to say about it though. And the main story is structured terrifically, even if there are a few minor plot holes here and there, it really doesn't matter because of just how damn-well-utilized everything is; how it's structured, told, shown out, it climbs all the way to the absolute PEAK of the TTTE movies. If only Mattel didn't flush it all down the drain in Season 22... I wish it was 2015 again.

I loved this movie, I loved the characters, Marion, Oliver, Toad, Jack, Alfie, Oliver the Excavator, Max and Monty, and others along with the Small Railway engines and everything about it is pretty good 10/10.

For a small island, Sodor has a huge amount of tracks and trains, and this time, they add more of both. There are a few reused story lines that should be obvious to anyone whose read the books or seen the TV shows, pretty much all the steamie crew get some screen time - to the degree you have a line along the lines of "haven't seen you in a while" towards a couple of lesser used engines - and the standard list of catch phrases and personality traits get an airing in a standard formula. They also - finally - give screen time to engines who have been mentioned in other stories, but not really had screen time, add a new engine; a new tank engine, whose orders may cause conflict. And a new type of vehicle that's cute and imaginative, even if it could be seen as shoe horned in because of the story. With Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne and Oscar Nominee John Hurt offering vocal talent, alongside the talented Olivia Colman (who doesn't appear on IMDb, despite voicing a major character), the storyline follows on - if not directly - with a popular franchise; last time it was dinosaurs, this time it's pirates, with many of the clichés that go with that, though while it kept my 19 month old and 3 year old stock still for much of the time (the younger one wasn't happy with the Fat Controller at one point), there are some points about Sailor John that may make adults stop to think. He seems a bit more evil than usual Thomas baddies, especially in regards how he treats Skiff. While there is a back story about the Lost Treasure, there's no real explanation about how he fits into it. And, he can't seem to work when the sun rises...but seems evasive when asked why. The art work is very pretty - especially the sun rises and atmospheric night shots - and there are a couple of songs; one that sounds like it wouldn't be out of place in Monty Python, the other could fit in a church. We saw the film in a cinema, and there were a couple of great shots that looked even better on the big screen. If your kids like the Railway Series, it's unlikely they'd be too bothered by the story. If you're a parent who has had the previous films on constant repeat, it'll come as a relief to have some variation.

The plot is amazing, there are loads of returnee characters like Mike, Rex, Bert, Donald, Douglas, Daisy, Max, Monty and Oliver the excavator, the new characters are really good because they're all voiced by celebrities like Ryan is voiced by Eddie Redmayne, Sailor John is voiced by the late John Hurt and Skiff is voiced by Jamie Campbell Bower, the Rev. W. Awdry made some cameos and the music was amazing. So I think that this is absolutely THE BEST movie to come out of the franchise. I'm twelve years old and I loved this movie so this just shows that Thomas The Tank Engine is for all ages. This movie was made for the 70th anniversary of the franchise and I think that it was a great way to celebrate it. So if you're thinking of buying this movie then do t think twice because this movie is an absolute no-brainier.
