Adam N @RT93209334 Oct 27, 2025 While not quite as strong as some of Schultz's other Peanuts movies and specials, the film is still charming. It is essentially what would occur if a Peanuts special had a theater-length runtime, but this is not necessarily a flaw. Admittedly the pacing is a little off at times, but the rest of the film's aspects make up for it. Classic Peanuts humor is still to be found, as is a wonderful soundtrack. This is perhaps the most underrated of Charlie Brown's theatrical outings See more Aug 25, 2023 Over 50 years old and it’s another worthy Peanuts feature film by Lee Mendelson and Bill Melendez I remember seeing parts of it on tv In this third entry of the beloved comics strip Charlie Brown and the gang are going to a summer camp called Camp Remote They also face bullies thinking they’re better than them and being constantly sabotaged But if the Peanuts gang wants to succeed they’ll have to work together They camp in the woods, have to navigate, hackney sack races etc. Of course they elect Charlie Brown to be the leader even though he has no top experience The big competition is a river rafting race but it won’t be easy for the kids as the bullies always rely on dirty tactics and cheating Snoopy and Woodstock have their own adventures of course It’s only an hour and 12 minutes long falling short of perfect but it’s very charming for kids and Peanuts fans as usual will eat it up Charlie Brown also faces insecurities that many can relate to learning to lead, getting others to cooperate, being brave when he needs to Simple and straightforward for everyone See more Jarrod P @movielover12345 Aug 29, 2022 "A Wet And Wild Thrill Ride... An Animated 'River Of No Return'. You Have To See It Twice". See more Apr 17, 2021 I hadn't seen this in years, so it was fun watching it again. I admit it's not as good as some of the other Peanuts movies, but I liked it. Lots of funny moments (who doesn't love Snoopy) and even some suspense. The ending wasn't at all what I was expecting and that's a good thing! Loved the opening scenes; such beautiful illustrations and the race itself was really exciting!
