The nature scenes are pretty but my kids 5, 7, 10 years were in tears at the end. The end is too abrupt and sad with no attempt to ease the transition for the child audience that it's obviously intended for. Don't show it at night; your kids will go to bed crying.

Loved the movie!!
From Kaela, 6 years old: I thought it was really really good. Very good actor. The baby foxes were so cute. I loved that girl! She was a really good actress. From Skye, 4 years old: I loved the baby foxes.

Excellent Family film but have a box of tissues with you
This was an excellent movie! A wonderful family film for all ages but the ending is pretty sad and very abrubt, Bottom line: Don't be surprised if your young movie viewer is in tears, the fox doesn't die but it's clear that the girl in the movie will never see the fox again and that's explained in a pretty sad way so I would say that it's age appopriate for kids ages kids ages 8+ and then again only for kids who aren't easily upset by stuff like this.
