How many of you have actually SEEN the movie?

Rating: 9/10 (11 November 2004)

Yesterday I saw the movie in a packed theater of mostly elementary school students. The children were captivated. They sang, they cheered, the "woooohed" through the action parts. The animation was spectacular, on par with an IMAX type attraction called Corkscrew Hill that I just went on at Busch Gardens. The animation of the children's faces was a bit creepy, but aren't a lot of animated characters kind of creepy?
I can't comment on the geopolitical ramifications of how the children were treated at the opening or what the director may have said. I can say, if you want to take your children to a movie that will entertain everyone in your family, go see this one.
