Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined
Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
yanaisa I remember the when I used to come home from school, eager to watch what was on the television. One day, I came across this film. To be exact, I was about 9 years old. My eyes were glued to the screen because I wanted to find out what happened. Since then, I have never forgotten about it. It is truly mind captivating as we, the viewers, are put in the viewpoint of Jesses' life, which creates a bond between himself and the viewers. The cinematography is great and I cannot find anything negative to say about this film. It will always have a special place in my heart.
huggibear I adored this movie. Yes, it is fictional. Yes, it is fantasy or adventure as they call it here on IMDb. Yes, this is a family film for families with children who can understand exactly what using an imagination is all about. Disney has imagination! Josh Hutcherson, plays Jess in this film and wow, what a wonderful actor and a praiseworthy performance from him. I loved his character all the way through the film. If we raised children to have his kind of character in this film, we'd be living in heaven on earth. His eye contact was pure and I could see the emotion in him throughout the entire film. Who is this young man? His hair was done so cute in this film. I can't wait to see other films from him. He's a favorite now! I've seen him in a few others films and I remembered him from them. He truly carries this film from beginning to the end though. He establishes a bond with a new girl at school that ironically moves into the home right next to his family's home. They are the main characters and story line. This is a film I've had on my watch list to see and finally I'm glad I did. When you can clap at the end, you know it's worth watching at least once. Don't miss it, if given the chance to see it. You won't be disappointed. The music teacher (Zooey Deschanel) is a cutie too! I think I remember her from 500 Days of Summer. I also believe that Jess has a secret 'teacher' crush on her in this film.
DreadfulA Bridge to Terabithia is one of my personal favourite movies. In my opinion it's a children's story made for adults, since it might be too tragic and dark for a small child. Lot of the movie takes place at school, which is familiar to all of us. At home we see Jess' family, who, excluding the father, do stay in the background of the story. We don't ever really learn to know the older sisters and mother too well, which is my only complaint. Okay, they don't really bring anything to the actual story, but still they seem rushed. Even the father, Robert Patrick, comes out one dimensional, probably to enhance his strict attitude against Jess. He is always more demanding towards Jess, but May Belle, the younger sister, get's more wanted attention from him. Understandable because Jess is the only boy in the family.Jess and Leslie's friendship at first seem quite unlikely. Jess is an introverted boy and Leslie a new comer in school. But they quickly learn to share same visions, imagination and justice and soon become inseparable. It happens so fast, what is only possible in children's world. They don't yet have learned to be careful, because in adult world you possibly couldn't trust someone so wholeheartedly. Tragic is, that this friendship ends even quicker than it started, and it destroys the viewers heart. Watching Jess struggle his way out of disbelief and fight his all too sensible parents, and when he calls for Leslie in the woods just to wait for her to pop up from the background like she never went away, is heart wrenching. Soon Jess will learn how unfair life is, reality of it I mean. For a while he sinks in despair, grieves and loses belief in the magic world they created together. Then he finds May Belle's drawing and sees the potential in his little sister and gives her a chance. He takes May Belle with him, finally, since the little girl has wanted to join her brother's and Leslie's play from the beginning. May Belle witnesses the imaginary world together with her brother. World is saved. Terabithia again has a king, and a new princess.AnnaSophia Robb and Bailee Madison were brilliant in this movie. When Janice steals May Belle's twinkie and Leslie raises a campaign to "free the pee" during recess is fun to watch. I love children's stories and Bridge to Terabithia has inspired me a lot during the years. Its beautiful scenery and subtle use of CGI creates a perfect balance between fantasy and reality.
Ole Sandbaek Joergensen This is a sweet story, but with a twist of sad, it is very well made, entertaining and pleasant to watch with a bit of lecture or positive messaging about having an open mind, being positive and seeing the troubled person behind the bully.This is a nice children's movie, it is a "small" film with a big hearth, believable and honest dialogue. It has a lot of things you might not see in other movies but also a lot that we are used to from other films in the same genre, it has moving moments, imaginary friends, responsibilities and consequences.All in all a very nice film for children of all ages, I and the kids was entertained, them a little bit more then I, but okay for a nice family afternoon.
