Featured reviews
I remember we had to watch this at school a couple of times. Its really boring and I wouldn't recommend it.
I enjoyed this with my 3 youngest children (4,7,10). We all thought this was a great film.
I liked how they intertwined real and cartoon in the movie. Speaking of cartoon, even though about half the film was in cartoon format, I did not loose interest in the film like I do with cartoons.
Great story, wonderful acting, beautiful surroundings, touching message (I saw my 7 yr. old boy crying, had a tear myself, and my 4 yr. old told me "a drop came from my eye"), and a reminder to all of us to remember to use our imagination with our young ones.
Nothing to complain about as far as inappropriate content for children.

I watched this movie with my family after stumbling upon it, and we all enjoyed it. The ending had me sobbing over the bowl of soup my dad made. My mother read this book to my brother and I as children and I remembered loving it but couldn't remember the story, and this was a great adaptation. I don't know why half the reviews are complaining, it's a good movie! It deserves more than the current score of a 6, at minimum a 7 but truly I'd give it an 8. I'm giving it a 10 because I want to raise the score from the BS 6 it currently has. ...Why do I still need to write 50 more letters, I said what I wanted to say.
