I didn't expect to like it as much as I did. I must say, it did surprise me. The advertisements lie, because it's really not a fantasy film. |

Another great film that is aimed at a younger crowd, but carries some adult weight. There's a lot of imagination, but it is grounded in emotional realism, plus it's not mucked up by flashy effects, but it has an illuminating story. |

Bridge To Terabithia |
|
We were all forced to watch this movie at school, and do a review on it, so I was expecting it to be crap (come on - the teachers picked it!) but I was totally surprised.
It is about a guy called Jess who has no friends, and is bullied at schools, until a new girl arrives: Leslie. They become friends after she beats him in a race (that he so desperately wanted to win) and they invent a magical place call Terabithia. To an outsider, it is just lots of trees. But to them, it is a magical kingdom, and with their imaginations, they can make it anything they want it to be.
So it was advertised to be something like Narnia, but it isn't really. Its just a movie showing that using your imagination can help you to cope with your problems, and that everyone needs a good friend/ |

A Pleasant Surprise. |

Leslie Burke:
"…I check my air. I don’t have as much time as I need to see everything, but that is what makes it so special.”
I’m not quite sure words can describe how I felt after viewing “Bridge to Terabithia” for the first time. For starters, I had already read the book back in fourth grade, and many of the scenes in that novel remain engraved in my mind to this day. The marketing for this adaption was poor and misleading at best. It appeared as if the people at Disney prepped this to be the next coming of “Narnia,” showcasing the various fantasy sequences throughout the many promotional trailers. Director Gabor Csupo was probably brought in to direct based on his impressive imaginative skills displayed in his co-created phenomenon “The Rugrats.” This signaled that Disney and crew ... |

Timeless Story of Imagination and Friendship |
|
"Bridge to Terabithia" is a movie that I had been looking forward to since I first saw the trailer for it earlier in the year. I first read the book by Katherine Paterson in fourth grade, and was very moved by it, so I naturally had very high expectations for the film. Needless to say, I was not disappointed. The casting for the film was spot on, and the actors did an excellent job of bringing the characters to life.
The story, which follows two children as they become friends and learn to see the world through the lens of imagination, is a very emotional experience. Like the book, the movie captures the wonder of childhood, the pain of growing up, and the despair of loss. When the book was first published in 1977, it was one of the first children's books to deal with the subjec... |
