Re: What Movies Have You Watched Recently?
Took my duaghter to see Bridge to Terrabithia today, while my son was in school.
"Jess Aarons is an 11-year-old boy, aiming to be the fastest runner in his grade, until the new girl, Leslie Burke, shows up and proves that she can run faster than all of the boys. Despite their athletic rivalry, the two become friends and share their vast imaginations with each other, ultimately creating the world of Terabithia, a magic kingdom hidden deep in the woods, where they must battle the Dark Master. Based on the bestselling book."
I have to track down the book and read it, now that I've seen this movie. I was a bit confused why they had a major plot twist that took this from a fun/imaginative adventure, in a morbid direction, and was looking forward to a different ending. My daughter expressed a similar feeling about the abruptness of the change.
Overall, we had a bunch of things to talk about after the movie, would give it a thumbs up, and will be adding it to my extensive movie library.
DB, one for the kids...
