Some scary scenes for a 4 year old. My daughter loved it although she did have lots of questions about Penny and why she didn't have parents and wanting to know why Medusa was so mean.

I was a bit reluctant to let my 5 yo son see this movie but relented when he got it as a gift. Overall, it's not bad. Neither the animation nor the storyline come even close to current Disney fare but it's less violent than the Lion King and much less heartwrenching than Bambi. It does, however, reinforce my belief that Walt Disney had an issue with his mother! "Penny" is an orphan (bringing up concepts that needed explanation - orphans, orphanages, adoption) and "Medusa" is psycho. Another thing that gave me pause but went completely over my son's head is the sexist portrayal of Bianca. Some families could object to the moonshine drinking but I just told my son that mouse was drinking something really spicy. So, I wouldn't rush out and buy it but it's fine to watch if mom and dad are in the mood for something different.

i like it.

I think this film should be rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Associates of America because of the scariness. There has been a scene where Madame Medusa has used a gun to make two mice get out. There is a scene that should not be shown in the flm itself. It is worse than the Snow White film.
