"Pa rymmen med Pippi Langstrump" tells the story of Tommy and Annika, who run away from home to escape their strict parents, just to find themselves on a road full of adventures with their friend and neighbor Pippi.
This is a very creative movie where a lot of heart was put into the production, making it suitable both for children and grown-ups alike. Additionally, the meanwhile outdated special effects add to the charm of the film, by freezing time and in some cases bringing back childhood memories. The storyline in itself is not spectacular, but it supports the rather laid back viewing experience.
All in all this is a movie that you can without any problem throw in on the next family film night. It might be a bit outdated for younger generations, but with some time to adapt, I think they will have a great deal of fun with it, too.
Plot summary
Siblings Tommy and Annika Settergren have fun with their friend Pippi Longstocking at her house Villa Villekulla, until they lose track of time and are greeted at home by their bossy parents, who address them before they angrily run off to bed. Pippi joins the family at breakfast the following morning, when Tommy and Annika, asked by their family to cut the weeds off their strawberry patch, are fed up with not having fun, so they bitterly decide to run away from home. Feeling that their two children might be serious about this, the Settergrens send Pippi to look after them. Pippi, Tommy, and Annika disembark on a long and rigorous trek away from home, during which they befriend an eccentric peddler named Konrad, travel from town to town, ride on top of a train, ride a flying car, and other fun adventures. But the harsher their journey gets, Tommy and Annika eventually learn that they had it a lot better back at home after all...

Innocent and dares to dream
pippi...
Nice, nostalgic. I find this the weakest from the series... Pippi is too much of a superhero...
One of the best series of all time!
All four of these films were really good. This one has Pippi and her two friends runaway from home because they are tired of parents rules. So Pippi takes them on a venture they will never forget. Inger Nilsson who plays Pippi did a fantasic job despite you can tell voices were dubbed. Watching Inger Nilsson was just great and that's why these are great films!
