Too violent for my five year old -- threats of violence and actual violence. When the bad guys ramsacked the aunt's house and burned her books it was too much for her.

This is a pretty good movie but it does not resemble the book. I like your comments lindaSLP

I thought the movie was good but not great.

We all thought this movie was just ok. Nothing special, we wouldn't have regretted not seeing it. Special effects were good, acting was corny.

Inkheart truly is a great movie - entertaining for the whole family. The violence would be a bit much for younger children. If you've read the book, don't expect the movie to follow the book. As I've been telling friends, "The movie and the book have the same premise: a man can read objects/people out of books". Beyond that, not much is the same. Within the first 10 minutes, my 7-year old son (who read the book) leaned over to me and said, "That doesn't happen now... that happens later... why did they do that?" So, as a book lover, I was disappointed that the movie didn't really resemble the book.

This has an interesting, clean, plot. It has no language, and no sexual references. It was captivating enough to hold these two 40 somethings attention through the entire movie. It did have some mildly scary scenes though out, and fairly intense scenes towards the end, and I would not recommend taking a smaller child if you think they would have a difficult time.

The story line was a lot better than I thought it would be. Message was great. Didn't think there was any sexuality or language. Highly recommend it for a family flick!

I thought Inkheart was a wonderful film, perfect for the whole family. My children are 8, 12 and 14 and each of them enjoyed this film immensely. It had the perfect blend of action and adventure, holding everyone's attention to the end. I definitely recommend this film to everyone looking for a good family film.

Typically I prefer to preview a movie before my kids see it, but we were with another family who was really interested in seeing this film. Overall it was a very enjoyable adventure/fantasy movie, though conceptually, even for an adult, the storyline was tricky to follow. The acting was well-done and the special effects were outstanding, even if the film seemed to borrow greatly from Peter Jackson's work (including actor Andy Serkis who played Gollum). Despite being somewhat predictable, I found it to be an entertaining ride and the story reminded me greatly of "The Neverending Story," to a point. One word of caution for parents of younger kids, I was with two seven year olds and an eight year old. The younger ones hid their eyes from some of the scarier parts (per my suggestion) and the eight year old found some scenes to be very intense. Overall, I'd give it a 6.5 out of 10. just my opinion, of course. ;)

The whole cast is brilliant. The visuals are glorious. The story is exceptional. I just wish the director could have brought all the pieces together a little better. All in all this is a wonderful piece of entertainment, so close to being truly great that it leaves you wanting to blame someone for not giving that last little bit of effort to make it perfect. That being said, you will NOT be disappointed with this delightful romp, stomp and romance through a mystical fantasy land.

Move aside Harry Potter. This film is awesomer. The Language Sex and Drugs are nothing to worry about. The only thing is the Fantasy Violence that will scare younger kids. Great job New Line Cinema, Brendan Fraser and Cornelia Funke!

it was cool how you got to like bring people out of the story it was a cool effect

I think inkheart was a great movie for all ages.It is kind of funny and it rocked. It has some good family messages.

This film was not what I expected to be. At first I thought that this movie would be cool ( kind of) fun for the whole family. Instead I thought that this this movie was a little too long and bit scary for kids -6-7 and under.This movie may maybe iffy and somewhat scary for kids ages 8 +. Mostly this movie would be a pretty good movie for ages 11- 12+. I did think that this movie was a bit scary at the end .If kids want to see this movie they need to know that is movie has some scary scenes like in the Harry Potter movies. This movie has very brief language. It only has one or two bad words. I would recommend this movie to kids who have read and liked the book, or to to kids who like fantasy movies like this and the other 6 Harry Potter movies.

i enjoyed this movie i thought it was an intresting chose to combine the two first books for the one movie. I would love it if they make the second movie but dont think they will

boring i thought but i think 7+ might enjoy it

The movie was a lot better than I thought that it would be. But the PG rating may have been pushing it a little. There is much more language than it says in the review. A few s-words and possible and uttered f-word. The camera also looks DOWN a woman's dress, and we see A LOT of cleavage. All in all, it wasn't too bad. But it is definitely not for kids.

First thing i want to say is that its not at all like the book the book was better. it has some violent parts and some scary creatures and scences in it .

This movie was entertaining, but by no means briliant. It had exciting parts, and a few humourous comments, and was, overall, a great family movie. One or two intense scenes could scare children younger than seven (maybe), and there were only two swear words: d-mn and jack-ss. In one scene we get a really nice view down a woman's copious chest, as a ferret digs a key out from between her breasts. Other than that, there is no innappropriate content.

I wanted to see Inkheart when it first came out. To me it looked like a good movie, mostly. But when my friend told me it wasn't as she thought it would be (in other words, an overall bad movie), I was a little disappointed. But that's just my thinking.

A very good special effects movie with some comedy but not that often. I would give this movie seven stars on a 5 star scale. I read all the Inkheart books, and I really loved this theatrical interpretation.
