This was a wonderful movie! I saw it twice on Memorial Day weekend. I cannot wait for it to come out on DVD. There was some violence and some fighting, but it was not gory and there wasn't much shown. There was blood, but nothing too ridiculous. There were lessons learned and taught throughout the movie. Lucy is, once again, the voice of truth, belief, and trust. The acting was very good by everyone. The movie was not completely true to the book, but I do not think the movie ruined the book. They did a great job turning the book into a movie. I don't know of very many books turned into movies that are 100% true to the book. There will always be differences between books and their movies, but this book-turned-movie is very good. I will recommend this to anyone and everyone! It is worth it!
