The Pilgrim's Progress

Although I haven't read the book and therefore can't compare it to the movie, this was a story well-told in its own right. A bit scary at points for young kids, but not gratuitously so. Some reviewers who complained the movie is blatantly religious or Christian obviously don't what The Pilgrim's Progress is all about. The animation was not up to modern standards and is a bit disappointing, though.

I was very touched by the message It brings to our hearts. I read the book and could say this film reveals exactly and with many details, what the author wanted his readers to understand and believe.

Unlike most movies, this is all about the story and not the production. The story is a great classic about the Christian spiritual path, and this version is done in a way that the message is clear to all ages. I really enjoyed it.

From a material standpoint this movie doesn't have the 'cutting edge' tech for animation along w some mildly hokey moments (like the judge speaking at the vanity fair). And it's not completely true to the book in many ways (but how could it possibly be given the several hundred page original by Bunyan). This is the best adaptation I've seen and I've seen nearly all of them. Would I like to see a big budget, live-action version? Absolutely! But both I, my friends and my kiddos Loved watching this together. I truly hope they follow through on the time be continued' at the end which I can only assume that means they are considering making the 2nd part of Bunyan's work on Christiana and her kid's journey to the Celestial City. So even though I never saw this in the movie theatre (I never even knew it was there until too late unfortunately, or I would have) and I only rented this from the library; I will do my minute part in supporting it by buying it for my family (and maybe some friends for Christmas!) as well as talking it up online.

The best adaptation I have seen of this book so far. Very encouraging. I enjoyed it. The animation and the music was well done.
