Spectacular Story and Incredible Scenery!!!

Rating: 10/10 (30 December 2005)

This was an excellent movie! I was amazed that Disney did such a great job adapting the book into a feature film. The cinematography was incredible. This is a must see on a Big Screen, as the big screen allows you to see all of the amazing scenery and it's beauty up close. The casting for this film was absolutely perfect. The four children, being basically unknowns in the business, did a perfect job portraying each of the characters. Each of them is likely headed into wonderful acting careers. When I went to see the film, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was very pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed the entire experience. I was familiar with the book, but wasn't sure how well it would adapt to the screen. I was more than impressed with it and feel that there is something in this for everyone! Christian or not, this movie can be enjoyed by all and has a wonderful heartfelt message. I highly recommend it and look forward to it coming out on DVD so we can add it to our movie collection. It is sure to be a classic.
