Fun for the whole family!

Rating: Null/10 (12 November 2004)

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, but then I love a good fantasy. It was great "seeing" Tom Hanks back to what he does best, movies for the young and young at heart with an upbeat message. We need much more of that in this era of reality TV, extreme violence, filthy profanity, and anything that will shock viewers. Thankfully, around the holidays we can expect Hollywood to put on its "Sunday best" and come up with clean, family movies, love stories, movies to uplift and not incite, movies to give the viewer hope and not disgust them. My only negative comment is that some of the music, although I loved it, sounded extremely similar to the music from Edward Scissorhands. At any rate, keep up the good work Tom Hanks!
