This film made for one of the most remarkable and honestly moving film experiences I've had in a very long time. For an idea why, I recommend reading the Fallopia movie review here: http://fallopia.net/

Thanks very much for the comment. I'm not sure about the scariness either really. My son was actually rather upset by the fighting, and by the monster getting upset, but he's sort of sensitive in that area, and he wasn't really scared.

Thanks for the kind words.

I saw this yesterday with my 4 year old son. Unless your child was already the type to be scared of monsters on a screen, I really don't understand how I read about all these children leaving the theatre hysterically crying. It would seem to me if you child was the type to be easily scared, you wouldn't have taken them in the first place. The only thing that concerned my son of all things was that the sun was going to die. And that took place in the middle of daylight from his teacher in school, no monsters around!

I do want to say this is one of the best reviews I have read of the movie. I had a hard time explaining why I wasn't as thrilled as I thought I was going to be. I too found the movie to be extremely slow and took forever it seemed to even get into monster-world. Although, when the movie ended, my son turned to me and asked if we could sit and watch it again. His attention span never wavered during the movie, which is very unlike him. Max reminds me a lot of my son, so maybe he's the target audience LOL.

Since I have actually never read the book, I have no baggage and, for some reason, no interest in this film. You did not change my mind.

This movie was definitely NOT a children's movie!! Such a shame....it is based on a children's book, yet children will be terrified to watch it! We took three children (ages 6 and 8) and they started crying uncontrollably during the movie....too much violence and anger reflected throughout, even though it is supposed to have a moral lesson for children; the problem is, kids will not be able to watch it to learn a lesson from it!!! I wish someone would have written a review that was honest about it not being for children...for adults only!!
