Sweet adaption of an American Girl book
This film is about Kitt and life during the Great Depression. It's a cute, entertaining movie. It's a bit educational because it's set during the Great Depression. There's nothing really innapropriate in this movie. Some violence, but not much.

Sweet
This was great. Children 6- might not understand it though.Abigal Breslin is an amazing actress. She's in three movies that I've seen. I saw this movie with my whole family. This took place in the great depression. ( No offense but in the mess we're in now we might go back a little. I'm not saying this about just Obama. Don't you know our country is in a mess?) So about The Great Depression, yes that was a very tough time for citizens. It was sad. All those people going for bread and soup at that place. People losing jobs. Losing houses. Losing money. Trying to at least have food and water. Trying to live. This movie had great heart and taught you that you can fight. And that you shouldn't ever give up. That's only the education value. The great message is that was that you kinda gotta help and be a troper like Kit. Kit was a great role model. This is great for kids sevan and up if your six y.o is mature enough sure. I really don't see why not. This movie was sweet.

Good movie for kids who are learning about the Great Depression
It was great that Kit wanted to be a writer! The Great Depression was when lots of people lost money on their investments and lots of people lost their houses. And it is like a mystery about who stole the money and Kits Dad lost his job and traveled to Chicago to find a job. And the bad thing about it is Kit and her friends are doing things with out her parents permisson.

AMAZING MOVIE
This movie sets in the depression time period. Maybe too mature for younger kids. Heartwarming movie and a family favorite.

I liked this movie when I was 9, and I saw it in the theater. I thought it was the best! There are positive messages, which teaches kids good things.

Sweet Movie for the whole family!
Nothing's wrong, but nothing's gonna interest kids younger than nine. I loved it, but it doesn't seem engaging enough to pull in a young audience. Cute and you should see it, but don't bring the young one's, they'll ruin it because they'll get bored. Adult themes and problems may be hard for younger kids to follow at points.

Fantastic Movie
This movie was fantastic and I'm an 11 year old boy. My 9 year old sister and her 11 year old friend rented the movie. So I sat down and watched it thinking this was going to be annoying and too girlish. But I was wrong. This movie was fantastic. Perfect combination of everything that makes a good movie. Also, no cussing! Nothing inappropriate! I believe that the mom is awesome. She welcomed the renters with open arms. Considering that she may have been stressed out.

This is one of the best movies I have ever seen! Abigail Breslin is terrific in it. There is absolutely nothing in it that I wouldn't want my kid to see.

It's actually not that bad; pretty good!
I saw this movie, and to tell you the truth, I'm NOT an American Girl fan at all. But, this movie was pretty good and it wasn't really stupid. It's about the depression and some parts are pretty sad. It's not very American Girlish, in my opinion. I think it's something anyone will enjoy. Oh, and parents, you don't need to worry about anything in this movie. It's clean and there's no swearing or anything that would raise a concern.

Too much for little kids- robbery, scariness, and depression.
