Admittedly I see very few movies in the theater so I may be too sensitive to how big the big screen is, however, I thought there were parts that were too scary for smaller children. I did not like the physical banging around the bear and baby did to "our friends". Near misses such as the furnace are one thing but "physical abuse" is another. My 5 and 6 yr old boys said they loved the movie and want to see it again. Maybe they are desensitized and I'm not. I'd recommend it.
