A favorite from my childhood and a good introduction to the theater. My 7-yr old was interested in the story but didn't enjoy the musical numbers although he stuck with it (complaining all the while!) I think it works as a "boy's" musical. I'm sure he'll come around someday...

Not recommended for anyone!
This movie has bad messages throughout.
One bad message is that villains remain villains. Villains CAN change, the movie does not show this.
The ending is very violent! Women should leave violent men right away so they can get out of harms way.

what?? 4 stars???
Jeez, this needs 5 stars. it's a masterpiece with loads of fun and catchy songs, and enough violence to get thrills from, but enough not to scare young kids. well, it might...

Share all but the last 30 minutes...
This was a childhood favorite and my kids have relished learning the music. It was a delight to share! Skip the last half hour (after the Oom Pah Pah number) and you'll avoid the reason this movie merits warnings about violence. If you require closure, turn it back on when Fagin and Dodger re-take center stage for the final musical number (Oliver is already safely returned to Mr. Brownlow. whew.).

Way too violent! In no way is this a rated G movie.
Shockingly a rating of G for a movie with (spoiler alert) a man hitting a woman so hard he knocks her to the ground in front of a group of children and later bludgeons her to death. Really? This gets a G for that? Both my 10 and 6 year old children were horrified and I did not see that violent death coming or else I would've ended the movie well before. Too bad. Love the music, but I feel hoodwinked by the G rating, with the violence mentioned and what I feel is some mature content, it should be at the minimum PG.
