> 24 hourWe watched this movie with our 10 year olds. Good theme about bullying, being strong, and keeping your imagination. There is a sad situation in the movie that may stoke a cord with easily emotional children. Best of all- the themes in the movie can help spark several family conversations. Kids relate well to the themes, good scenery, and adventurous.

> 24 hourThis was a very enjoyable movie for the whole family. It was a bit sad so if you have sensitive ones you may want to read up on it first. Also there were a few swear words. Other than that it was decent and well made. These kind of movies are hard to find now a days.

> 24 hourMy kids just love this movie. They are 10, 10, and 6. They enjoy how the movie shows what the kids are imagining. Kind of confusing for my 6 year old at first but she caught on quickly. The relationships within families and the kids at school - all realistic. Great conversation starter about bullies, imaginations, families who struggle with making ends meet, and a shocker toward the end. Highly recommend even if you dont have kids.

> 24 hourI found this to be an excellent movie to watch with my 12 year old granddaughter. Great family movie. The movie depicts school bullying and also the difficulties of what some children go through in their home lives. Portrays a great friendship between the new girl at school and the boy that was picked on.

> 24 hourI have re watched this movie quite a lot. Growing up this is by far one of my favorite movies. The story line remained very close to the actual book with only some slight altercations. But all the actors did amazing in this movie. Even too this day Bridge to Terabithia is my favorite movie.

> 24 hourThis is a great movie for all kids. We watched it for family movie night with my 15, 10, 8, and 13 year old. They all loved it, but were surprised by the ending. I read this book as a kid and as a teacher to my class. Great story that stands the test of time! :)

> 24 hourOne of my favorite movies, but is for my grandson.Was his favorite when he was four years old and count not see the TV until he got special glasses made. He remembered all the words. Must see for kids with dreams, And I didnt even think a four year old could say Terabithia. What does that tell you about the movie, full of dreams for an outcast. Still love it.

> 24 hourThis is a great movie for someone struggling with the loss of a loved one, especially for children. It also emphasizes the importance of showing all your kids affection and letting them know you love them. It definitely has sad parts but in the end, things are better as a result. The only issue I had with the movie was the part when they are riding in the back of the truck and the little girl goes on a tirade about being damned to hell. I felt it was completely unnecessary and came out of nowhere.

> 24 hourId seen the trailer, but thats it. Given the current crop of fantasy movies, I was expecting a light, fluffy fantasy movie - NeverEnding Story, or the like. Boy was I ever wrong. Bridge to Terabithia was anything but light fantasy. Im glad I watched it alone - crying over movies is more my wifes domain, and I did plenty of sniffling. I dont see this as being a kids movie - nothing terribly objectionable, it just hit hard in spots I didnt have when I was a kid. The acting is very good - a good thing. Despite the trailer it was all about the characters and the story. There was comparatively little CG - no Star Wars or Lord of the Rings here. Just enough CG to support the story. Very tastefully done. My only disappointment is two bits of dialog, unnecessary to the story, that portray the usual Hollywood stereotype of Christianity. Disappointing, but not surprising, even from Disney. Aside from that one minor nit, I dont remember being hit as hard (in a good way) by a movie since I saw Apocalypse Now in the theater in 1979.
