The Care Bears Movie was released in 1985 by the Samuel Goldwyn Mayer studios two years after Care Bears Plush and toys were released.
The Care Bears Movie grossed almost $23 million at the American box-office, making it the most successful animated production outside the Disney market at the time of its release.
It is also one of animation's most profitable releases ever given it only cost $3 million to make.
The music was provided by the well knowns artists Carole King and John Sebastian.
Was it a shameless attempt to sell Care Bears toy products? Of course!
But it also teaches children the value of caring and being compassionate in a fun and colorful way. Not only are more Care Bears introduced in this movie, but so are the Care Bear Cousins...the non-Bear characters from Te Forest of Feelings between here and Care-a-Lot where the Care Bears live.
The Care Bears and Cousins come to Earth to battle the Evil Spirit and make the world safe for good feelings again.
It is intended for the younger audience. Probably the 4-10 crowd would enjoy it the most. The animation is very sweet and was compared to the work of Disney at the time of the release. The music is spectacular and you will even hear some old friends like Mickey Rooney voicing some of the characters.
Watch it with your little ones and enjoy the simple sweet magic of it!
