I did not like this one as much as A Boy Named Charlie Brown because it seemed to lack some of the Peanuts charm. The adults in this film not only had faces, but they talked! It seemed to ruin some of the magic. However, in true Peanuts fashion, a group of children, a dog, and a bird fly unaccompanied to France and England. They also even rent a car with Snoopy producing a driver's license! Snoopy is also a member of the famous Wimbledon Tennis Club where he has a hilarious John McEnroe inspired tantrum at losing his match.

Marcie, who up until now has pretty much been Peppermint Patty's whipping girl, actually has a bit of a "thing" with the French boy who is hosting the Peanuts characters in France. This movie had a lot of Linus being preachy and not enough of my favorite character Lucy, who is only seen at the beginning telling Charlie Brown that she hopes he doesn't come back. Some of the scenes were fun, but overall, this movie wasn't as good as the Peanuts efforts in the 1960s and the 1970s.
