Florence and her animal friends live in the Enchanted Village, which is under the care of Zebedee, a kindly wizard. However, a dark cloud approaches this sunny world. After being encased in ice for eons, Zeebad, Zebedee's evil double, reappears and threatens to start another ice age. The only way to stop Zeebad is for Florence and friends to find three magic diamonds before he does. Based on the cult TV series "The Magic Roundabout."

As a familiar good vs. evil story plays out against a mostly wintery backdrop, it's difficult to shake the impression that the filmmakers were taking their cues from the Ice Age and Toy Story franchises more than the original, though.

In short, The Magic Roundabout is an enjoyable family film that will delight young audiences and is liable to send nostalgic 30-somethings on a (sadly, futile) quest to find the original series on DVD. Worth seeing.

For all its undeniable promise, this take on The Magic Roundabout is just plain disastrous in its execution.

The Magic Roundabout is one of those films i would watch again & again. the story is kinda engaging, the animation is average at best, and the character are sometimes likeable. The only thing i can say is....STAY AWAY FROM THE US VERSION!!

This was one of my favourite movies as a kid. This dvd regularly entered the player for a long time. Not everything is great, but still. Definately a good movie for kids aged 5-10

The voice acting is good, but other than that this film was really loud and annoying. It's not a good kid's film either, because the film may be too loud and possibly scary for kids to handle. The film's animation is full of smeared greens, browns, and greys, which, combined with the fast paced animation, makes me sick to my stomach.
