The six-year-old I went with said, "This is a *really* *good* movie!" The four-year-old thought the darker parts were a little bit scary but her mom gave her a hug and all was well. I was impressed with the movie. I laughed out loud quite a few times (LOVE the singing fish!) and didn't find the environmental message heavy handed. The animation was just beautiful. I was amazed by the textures created. We all had a great time.
