In this made-for-TV musical, Gordon Goose (Dan Gilroy) enlists the help of his friend Little Bo Peep (Shelley Duvall) -- still searching for her sheep -- to solve the mystery of what happened to his mom, Mother Goose (Jean Stapleton). Things escalate when other characters begin disappearing from Rhymeland, including Peter Piper (Harry Anderson), Mary (Cyndi Lauper), Georgie Porgie (Art Garfunkel) and the Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe (Deborah Harry).

Cap Blackard Consequence Mother Goose Rock 'n' Rhyme is one of those rare experiences in children's programming that is so weird and unique, that despite its many dated qualities and failings, it withstands the test of time where it counts. Oct 16, 2019 Full Review Charles Pulliam-Moore io9.com As campy cult classics go, Shelley Duvall's Mother Goose Rock 'n' Rhyme holds its own because it knows precisely what kind of story it wants to be. For all of its wildness, it's tight and to the point. Oct 1, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
Audience Member Mother Goose Rock 'n' Rhyme is a Good idea to bring Mother Goose characters to life in Shelley Duvall movie with mystery, laughs, music, and Imagination. Original movie will be 77 minute long, and 1998 VHS director cut will be 96 minute long Rated 4/5 Stars •Rated 4 out of 5 stars02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member One of my childhood favorite movies. I think of it as a cross between Pee-wee's Playhouse and The Neverending Story. Rated 5/5 Stars •Rated 5 out of 5 stars02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Much stranger than I remember. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Shelley Duvall did her best to entertain kids in the 80's and 90's and God bless her for that. ZZ Top were the three men in a tub. Rated 2/5 Stars •Rated 2 out of 5 stars02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member The dungeon scene gave me nightmares as a kid. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member OMG. They actually have this to review!! I -loved- this movie. Oh hell, I still love it. It's not only a silly, fun-time romp through favourite nursery rhyme characters, but also a huge game of "Hey! It's That Guy!"Okay, so the climactic part -- with the kid from Family Ties -- wasn't that good, but it's fun anyway. Rated 4/5 Stars •Rated 4 out of 5 stars02/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
