As far as I am concerned as a Grandmother, I laughed louder and more often than my 7yr & 12 yr grandsons. I loved Ken & Barbie & laughed so hard. Also, When Buzz Lightyear started speaking Spanish and became a Latin Lover & Dancer with Jesse I almost fell on the floor from Laughing!!!
I had no pre-concieved ideas about this movie. I didn't just see the Movie, I was in it. I felt like I was in the Mountains, and climbing the trees, and touching the beautiful flowers, and flying with the animals...I was there. It was what I would call a Fantasy/Sci-Fi/Rain Forrest/War/Love Story Movie. I was taken there with Jake(the Vietnam Veteran/Avatar), I lived and hurt and loved with Jake, I was enthralled with the movie, the scenery, the love story(which was a miner part) and the special effects, and the Rain Forrest. This is a MUST See!
I would give this movie a 5 star plus rating. I t is everything and more that was advertised. It is much more than just a love story. It has beautiful music, and scenery . It actually takes you to Australia an 1939. It is very factual about the history of that time. The acting is wonderful and the magic and especially the little boy was superb!!!
This movie was so funny that I literally almost rolled in the isles. The sound was fabulous and Christine Baranski that played Tanya stole the show. A must see for anyone that appreciates good music. I will buy the soundtrack. And a great story!!!
