The fourth Thomas the train movie down the line following the Thomas and the Magic Railroad, Calling All Engines, and The Great Discovery, this DVD Thomas and friends Hero of the Rails creates some of the most prevalent transformations in the Thomas the tank engine movie history as seen to date.The entire Thomas the train film for kids is done in Computer Generated Imagery CGI animation produced, by the inspiring digital filmmaking Nitrogen Studios famous for there colorful animation and design work, Nitrogen Studios Lionsgate are located in Vancouver British Columbia Canada.
All of the Thomas & Friends characters on this fairy-tale world of Sodor are currently individually voiced for each locomotive, whilst this Michael Brandon is still covers the story narration throughout the Thomas and Friends Hero of the Rails film.
In the Thomas tank and his friends story, shiny big silver Spencer tank engine from the mainland railroad, is visiting the Island of Sodor railway lines to assist in constructing the Duke and Duchess of Boxford summer holiday house.Steam tank Thomas the train was teased regarding his size, foolishly he attempts to compete with the large railway express engine Spencer the train, but ends up crashing into the woods onto an abandoned old line.
Lost in the trees he discovers an old locomotive Hiro the tank engine, a gentle and elderly abandoned steam-engine from a faraway land, who once worked on the Sodor railway-tracks a long time ago.
Wanting to prevent Hiro master of the railway from being taken away and melted down for scrape metal, Thomas tank promises to help restore old steam engine Hiro of the rails back to his former shining glory, along with the help of steam tank engine Victor and Kevin the crane, who run the Island's legendary landmark "Sodor Steamworks".
Along his travels, Tom-tank is required to stay away from the suspicious eyes of steam train Spencer the silver engine in addition to keeping colorful patchwork Hiro the train secret from Sir Topham Hatt.
Train James Thomas and Percy the green engine all work hard delivering new parts to help fix this Japanese engine Hiro the train.
Not to let the cat out of the bag and spoiling the finish of this Hero of the Rails story, it's vaguely similar to the "DVD Thomas and the magic railroad diesel 10 train chronicle", but the movie was fantastically executed overall.
The Thomas and friends Hiro the train form Japan character is very believable and likable childrens film personality, along with Sodor Steamworks train Victor and Kevin the crane construct a wonderful pair on-screen.
The traditional story's moral teaching is ever present all the way through the Island of Sodor tales narration, nevertheless isn't done in a settle manner, presently contrasting to most of the other up-to-date children's films on the market, which is a nice refreshing change to see.
The Thomas Tank Engine Friends Video DVD film's main focus however is on the new digital animation. While the original scale railway-model series was wonderful, this kids CGI motion picture is a breath of fresh air.The moving animated little-engines faces provide a whole new life to the Sodor train characters, and each 3D model locomotive appears as realistic as they can be.
The Thomas & friends Hero of the rails backgrounds, railroad layout scenery features, and Sodor Island 3D model buildings are far more beautiful and with realistic detail than something I would have expected from a film for children to watch.
There are plenty of novel camera angles too, that would never have been possible to accomplish via the time-honored original replica models, such as camera shots taken from beneath the locomotive engines, or swooping shots of two trains racing alongside each other, or panoramic shots of colorful morning sky lines over massive mountain rangers.
The tone of voice acting is incredible too. Thomas's innovative voice fits his character like a glove. Thomas the tank engine Hiro master of the railway has a soft Japanese accent, which suits train Hiro exceptionally well. Narrator Michael Brandon does an even better job of Thomas the tank engine story telling than ever, and he really helps to bring the Thomas tank engine friends video to life enhancing all the characters.
I would advice the Thomas-and-friends little engines scriptwriters to work further on the actual story lines though; the format used in this big screen Thomas the tank engine picture gets a smidgen repetitive draw to a close of its fullness of run time e.g. Thomas's wheels whirred and wobbled, Thomas's boiler was bubbling or his pistons were pounding as well as some expressions the trains utilize when starting and stopping there travels Fizzling fireboxes!, Blistering boilers!, Rattle my rods! And Cinders and ashes!Taken as a whole conversely, I feel that "Thomas & Friends Hero of the Rails" is one of Thomas's most excellent motion pictures, and I can't wait to view more of Thomas tank engine friends video DVD'S in his new CGI animated format in the near future.
HiT Entertainment and Nitrogen Studios really deposited a lot of toil and effort into this childrens Thomas and Friends Hero of the Rails film, and the quality shows.
Veteran and new Thomas the train fans alike are certain to enjoy Toby-tram Percy Thomas Hiro master of the railway express Gordon the tank engine and Spencer-the-train in this great Island of Sodor adventure.
