This is definitely the later Hannah-Barbera material. Don't expect the animation to be as good as Tom and Jerry; this is long after they started producing television animation and it shows. It is mostly combining 2 live action actors over animation cells with animated characters. Gene Kelly is dancing as wonderful as he always has and the kid is not a bad dancer either. Throughout the film you will notice that Gene and the boy are not quite sure where the animated characters are in the shot. Very noticeable when Jack is talking above the heads of the mice. The story itself isn't that great and the musical numbers are not very memorable. I was really hoping that this would be a lost gem but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a good film that combines animation and live action.

I like Jack and Gene Kelly in the TV Special from the TV Special and they're dancing like in the jazz and vaudeville show. The animated by Hanna-Barbera Productions. I like Jack and Jeremy for the Giantland to see the castle of the Giant. Gene Kelly is dancing with the Princess and the Woggle Birds. Jack is marching and dancing with the mice for a fight. The Giant has the cat to searching for Jack and found the hole with a mouse trap for a mice. In fact, I need the DVD released in 2016 with Blu-ray and DVD. I'm sure Gene Kelly is the good TV Special with Hanna-Barbera Productions for 'Jack and the Beanstalk' starring Gene Kelly and directing himself. I wish you can do it for the Blu-ray and DVD in 2016.

i remember seeing this NBC special as a kid, and nobody else, besides my brother who saw with me at the time, remembers this. i have a bootleg copy of this with the H-B 'Alice in Rexall Land' which is retro coolness. Alice gets a migraine and heads for her nearest Rexall drugstore for some pharmaceuticals. it's retro commerciality at it's most hilarious. this 'Jack n Beanstalk' has Kelly dancing with a bunch of animated mice. it's not 'Mary Poppins', but i'm surprised at how proficient the made for television animation is. Disney movies were often filmed with cost cutting often similar to a TV budget. the songs are cute and better than you might think if not completely memorable. all in all this is a production that deserves a lot more recognition than it currently receives. it is a true TVLand, retro classic.

This movie was once one of my favourites. The mixture of animation and real-life actors may remind people of "Song of the South" or, more recently, "Space Jam", but this is quite different. The animated characters aren't big stars that you know. But they still manage to be cute and funny. Storywise, it is of course about the boy who exchanges a goat for a few beans, instead of selling it for money, thereby almost driving the family into poverty. The next morning, a giant beanstalk has grown out of those beans, and as he climbs it he enters a magical land in the clouds, inhabited by a human-eating giant. Together with a friend, he explores the giant's castle, tries to find the gold and rescue a damsel in distress in the process. The film is funny and loveable with enough cute characters to keep kids happy (how I loved the birds dancing with Gene Kelly!) Family fun. And the best adaptation of "Jack and the Beanstalk" I have seen to date. 8/10
