What Parents Need to Know
About The Care Bears Movie
Parents need to know that younger preschoolers might be frightened by the scenes with Evil Spirit, a misty shape that flows out of a magical book and enlists the help of a friendless child named Nicholas to rid the world of all caring. The Evil Spirit causes a cloud quake in Care Bears' world of Care-A-Lot with visuals of broken structures and rainbow bridges. It also causes a fight between kids at the carnival where Nicholas works.

That's A Really Cute Movie!
I had that film on VHS, but I'll rent the DVD version of it! The only thing that I'm concerned about is - well, just the Evil Spirit, but it's a joy to watch anyway! I'm a fan of Bedtime Bear and Proud Heart Cat!

Just.... horrid. I do NOT want MY children watching this. I mean, that evil spirit thing scared ME. Imagine how terrified my poor children would be.

We own this
The absolute only thing that is questionable for 2-5yr olds is the scary Evil Spirit. Your young children would appreciate you sitting with them if they are sensitive at all, but there is no hurting others, crude comments, sexual innuendos, etc. My 3,4,and 6yr olds all enjoy it. The songs are very catchy and cheerful, and present a sense of love and respect.

THIS WAS TERRIBLE!!!
This was the worst movie that you could ever buy for your kids!!!!!!! I gave my 5 year old son this for Christmas and how he has spiraled harshly into drugs and alcohal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My son is a sissy!!!! He actually wants his name changed to Smily Bear!!!!! Seriously!!! THIS IS AN ISSUE!!!!!! I find that the glances shared by the bears seemed highly sexual and it made me wonder what went on behind the scenes. Shame on the makers of this movie and all that support its utterly disgusting racism. (There are no black bears, nor are there any bears voiced by African Americans) >:(
