Bridge to Terabithia [Blu-ray]

I purchased this movie at the perfect time. My sixth grade students had just finished reading the book in class. Automatically, the two teachers in the room put our heads together and thought about some kind of extension activity we could plan for our students. Jackpot!!! We used this movie to allow the students to compare and contrast the movie and the book! Lesson turned out well!

One of the best childrens/young adult stories ever. Great actors

The movie is not too intense as mentioned in many reviews. The only thing Id say about language is that the word hell was used repeatedly and if you dont like this word, dont show the scene where Leslie goes to church with the Aarons. Over all, really awesome and many differences from the book. The book is better.

I watched this film with my 8 year old grandchild and was so surprised by his emotional response towards the end. I wont say more as I dont want to ruin it if you havent seen it. A wonderful film about bullying, friendship, and imagination for children. It shows how adults can be totally oblivious to the needs of their children and how kids can work out their problems on their own. Highly recommend this for any child 8 or over and should be watched with an adult as it inspires a great conversation

A horror movie is one thing but this is a horror movie disguised as a family movie. Dont get me wrong, there is no violence whatsoever in this movie, but horror nonetheless. I just dont get it. sorry. Some will argue that the story is a valuable teaching to young viewers on how to handle the death of a loved one. True, young people will eventually need to face that, but not this way! Let it happen when it happens in real life so that they are not alone in their hurting. Maybe the book handled the outcome more sensitively, I dont know, didnt read it, but I do know the movie used shock tactics to its fullest. And Im sure there are plenty of viewers who enjoyed that but there are also at least as many people like me, I think most of them just dont talk about it. For younger viewers who may have been traumatized by this tragedy, watch Because of Winn-Dixie (also starring AnnaSophia Robb) to help lift their spirits back up.

I have seen this movie several times, and I still cant get through it without crying. Im not an overly emotional kind of person, but this one hits right in the feels. Its a great movie though. Excellent actors, phenomenal storyline and visuals, wonderfully directed. My kids have requested it several times. Its a bit heavy for small children (mine are 3 and 4), but they love how the kids use their imagination to create a world full of magic and adventure. Its the kind of movie that sticks with you and its one of my favorites.

If you buy this DVD thinking that it is a full-fledged fantasy (like the commercials for the movie made it look like when the movie first came out) - you will be disappointed. This is a story about friendship between two outsiders that has a little fantasy thrown in. If you realize this, you will enjoy this movie. BTW: Parents with small children should be aware that this movie has its dark side (bullying, death, etc). So you may want to watch it first to decided whether it will be OK for your child.

Sadddd movieeee

This 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! :)

I am really glad I finally got this movie I had ordered it before and the seller had to give me a refund I bought the soundtrack to the movie and I really loved the movie but now I have to say thanks from the bottom of my heart I wanted to own this movie and now I am happy thanks again very good movie music is awesome too
