This movie is for everyone in the family. It deals with real issues in a positive, we can do it manner. It wasn't too sweet, but very predictable. Then again, I like happy endings.
This was a nice action packed film, but not a must see now. The plot was easy to fiqure out. I knew who the real bad guy was long before the mid-way point. It was hot here when I went to see it. Nice way to stay cool when the weather is 95+ outside.
I think you will get more out of this movie if you read the book first. When I read the book I came away with a pretty good understanding of the problem, but after seeing the movie I was more aware of some of the smaller ideas that I didn't pick up when I read the book. I don't know if I would have had a clear picture without the background information.
I took my12 year old granddaughter to see the movie and she loved it. The other girls in the theather seemed to be enjoying it also. I think the idea of WHY she was leading a double life should have been stronger.
