My son (7) and I (44), loved this movie. The 3-D was great on this film. One of the best 3-D movies that we have seen this year. As for the ney-sayers in these reviews...this is a children's movie, a fun story and escape for your children....lighten up with the heavy critical reviews! This movie was fun and was worth the $$ to listen to my son's laughter at some of the funny moments in the story.
