I think this movie stayed as true to the book as possible and given that the book it is a Caldecott winner, every parent should have their children read and see this movie. It is very sophisticated because that is the subject matter of the book. They will get history of French culture and architecture from the early 1900s as well as characters with deep feelings and intentions. It is a rare opportunity to have your children see something and be inspired particurly by an ending that shows how every child can make a difference. We often get caught up in the ugly pop culture here in the US where the biggest hit is a 2 star Adam Sandler movie. While there is a place for that comedym there is also a place for this. It will balance you children and open their eyes. Give this a chance, regardless of other reviews, if you want you children to experience something that is totally unique, warm and touching. They will use their brains a bit, and isn't that what we all want. As an adult, GO - it is just as good. Don't waste money on 3D - not needed.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
