Think twice before seeing with a group of children: The scene with the Sphinx shows the Sphinx's naked breasts, which caused my group of 4th & 5th graders to "hoot & holler" with delight.

I enjoy this movie, but...
I can't wait for my kid to get old enough to watch it! I keep trying to watch these old favorites of mine hoping that he's old enough, but he just isn't (he's 4). This one's a definite hold off. I think it would go between being boring as all get out and terrifying for him. Although I thought the big "fight scene" at the end was a bit anti-climactic after all the hullabaloo on here about it. The blood was a bit much, though. There was some blatant commercialism at the beginning. I spotted wonder bread, skippy peanut butter, ziploc baggies, and sanka coffee in the kitchen scene between Bastion and his dad.

One of the Best!
This is a very good movie. It shows a child that it is ok to get lost in a good book. I does show the boy stealing something (the book) though so you may want to talk to your children about how that was bad. Overall this is a very good movie with a good plot, lovable charecters, and beautiful scenry.

I loved this movie so much!
I really liked the part when Atreyu killed the creature of darkness. I also liked the part when Atreyu jumped through the Sphinxes before he got hit by the lasers. There is a sort of sad part in the movie when Atreyu's horse sinks into the swamp of sadness. I think this movie would be too scary for A three year old child.
