I Give it a D
PostedOctober 19, 2009
mommybranch
from Maryland
We made a play date out of going to see the movie.
The movie was so slow that almost 30 min into it my 4yr old said, "mommy, is this the movie?" This film is not appropriate for children as it depicts some degrees of violent behavior (my oldest child who is 6yrs old actually started crying during one scene) as well as lessons that small children just wont understand.
I believe that the hype was mostly adult-driven stemming from memories of the book we read when we were younger. While I dont recall the book ever being good enough to make into a movie, I believe that it was the sense of remembering something from our youth that fueled us enough to take our children. Overall, I give it a D.

No, I do not recommend this movie.
