Synopsis
Babes in Toyland (1986) is a Christmas fantasy musical you can watch online, in which an eleven-year-old girl tumbles into Toyland and has to keep a villain from seizing it. Clive Donner directed, and the cast pairs a very young Drew Barrymore with an even younger Keanu Reeves.
Lisa has no time for play — she runs the house and minds her younger siblings. A Christmas Eve blizzard sweeps her into a living Toyland the way a twister carried Dorothy to Oz, dropping her right in the middle of a wedding. Cruel old Barnaby Barnacle is forcing young Mary Contrary to marry him, even though her heart belongs to Jack Be Nimble. Lisa, Mary, Jack and Georgie Porgie set out to stop the ceremony and learn that Barnaby is really after the throne of Toyland. Only the Toymaster can help — and his magic stays frozen until Lisa learns to believe. Pat Morita and Eileen Brennan round out the cast.
This German-American TV movie is worth a look mostly for its future stars caught early: Barrymore fresh off E.T. and Reeves a couple of years shy of stardom. Sweet, old-fashioned holiday fare for a night by the tree. Stream Babes in Toyland (1986) online on iFILM.
