    At her insistence, we queued up Bridge to Terabithia, thinking it would be one of those movies we would watch just to be nice grandparents. Turns out, it was really good. She also told us she had already watched it three times that week, so I was really afraid. Nice story dealing with some tough issues, there is an element you need to be prepared for - nothing graphic, just a life issue that we all face. It was handled very well. I then texted my daughter and told her that her niece and I were watching a movie that she and her daughter (my other granddaughter) might enjoy. She texted back that she had read the book as a child and remembered crying her eyes out. Then, she said she was excited to watch the movie. So there ya go - just have a hanky handy.

    I 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.

    A group of teenagers came over and begged to watch this movie. I bought and found a group of 15 years old crying and said they loved it. I can only use their tears and how much they talked about loving it as a gauge of how good it was!!!

    I love this movie for the imagination of the characters. I have my grandsons watch it, to teach them that its okay to use your imagination and have fun with it. The hardest part, (if youve seen it you know. If you havent, Im not telling) is what happens, and having to explain it to my grandsons. They were saddened by it, but enjoyed the movie as a whole.

    Im not exactly a movie expert, but I would have to say that I found this movie fairly enjoyable. I was attracted to this movie because of a grade school reading assignment where I had to read the book version of this movie. And it stuck with me even now in adulthood, as few things have. so when I found out that they were making a movie of this, I was immediately interested. But I kept putting it off for a while until I finally watched it recently. And I dont regret watching it at all. Its still not as good as the book but its still something good to see if you want to explore the potential of a childs imagination.

    I bought this to show my students after reading the book. I havent read the book myself since 4th grade (many, many years ago), but it seems to follow the books fairly closely. I like that it has enough differences (little things to update it) that make it easier to see of students actually read the book when filling out questions, but the main idea of the movie stayed the same as the book.

    My wife has been talking about this movie since weve been married, she hadnt seen it in years, but remembered that she enjoyed it, but we never could find it streaming anywhere so we finally decided to buy it. I had never heard of it, and she knowing that I like to go in blind on movies, didnt tell me anything about it. However, from seeing the cover I had an idea...WRONG, but in a good way. It held up in her book, and I liked it, and would recommend. Came a day early and in great condition. If I could give it 3.5 stars I would.

Based on Katherine Paterson"s young-adult novel and filmed in picturesque New Zealand, Bridge to Terabithia has lessons to impart about empathy and self-expression, but the tone is never heavy-handed. Jesse (sleepy-eyed Josh Hutcherson, Zathura), a fifth-grade loner, lives in the country with his parents and four sisters, including pesky May Belle (Bailee Madison), who adores him. His strict father (Robert Patrick, The Terminator 2) works in a hardware store. Money is tight and classmates make fun of his hand-me-downs, so Jesse finds refuge in running and drawing. Everything changes when two writers and their daughter Leslie (wide-eyed AnnaSophia Robb, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) move in next door. Leslie is faster than all the boys, which initially puts Jesse off, but the two soon bond over their love of make-believe. In the forest, they find a creek that can only be crossed by rope. Leslie names the land on the other side Terabithia, where they imagine themselves rulers of the kingdom. Jesse and Leslie also connect with their unconventional music teacher, Ms. Edmonds (Zooey Deschanel, Elf), who encourages their creativity. Despite the tension at home, Jesse"s personal life is finally coming together when the unthinkable happens. Will he revert to his anti-social ways or will he grow from the experience? Though aimed at all ages, pre-school students may find Terebithia"s creatures frightening. For grade-school kids and up, however, there"s much to savor in this smartly written, sensitively acted film. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
