On a spontaneous whim I took my 8 year old son and 10 year old daughter to see this and although they had been wanting to see this, they were even pleasently surprised! During the movie, my daughter leaned over to me and said, "mom this is better that what I expected!" The animation was incredible, one to definately see in 3D! Great message for kids to see that not everything is what it appears to be. We will definately be buying this one!
