This movie reminds me when I was a kid. I always found it fascinating how they mixed cartoon with real life people. Very entertaining for kids and some adults. It's just like Mary Poppins in a way with lots of singing and such. I love it.

The story follows an orphan named Pete escaping from his lazy and abusive foster home. He is taken in by a kind lighthouse keeper's daughter who is mourning the disappearance of her fiancée at sea. His companion is an actual dragon named Elliot whose ability to turn invisible tends to get Pete in trouble.
Really enjoyed this film as a child, but it has not aged well. Incorporating the animated Elliot in the film is still cool but the overall story and songs are rather weak. Helen Reddy does a fine job as the daughter, but you also expect better comedy from co-stars Mickey Rooney and Red Buttons.
The film is fine for children and family viewing, but the only bonus feature is a short behind the scenes documentary.

A great family friendly story about a young boy and his friend (who happens to be a dragon and can make himself disappear.) and their crazy adventures.

Another classic Disney movie from the old school combining live action and animation. It gets a great upgrade on Blu-Ray. Fun for the whole family,

While Disney has hit most of the live action movies out of the park. But, the remake of this glorious classic was awful. This looks great on bluray and I'm thankful to have found on sale which is very rare for Disney titles.

This original by Disney is a fun musical story involving a young boy and a dragon that can turn invisible so that no one else will see him. But, someone does. Which sets off a series of events to capture the dragon.
