This adaptation of the novel is beautiful. Full of highs and lows. Laughter and Tears. suitable for any age. With endering animation and characters. I watched it with my best friend, even though we are both 22 yrs old, it had us by the end hugging and crying our eyes out (hopeless pair we are!) Just because I am raving on about the sappy side to this film doesn't mean there isn't something for the action lovers in here too, big guns and anger. Look out for the morals in the story, even ones us grown-ups need reminding of sometimes. dont forget a big box o tissues to see you through this one, if youre anything like me that is.

Once again I'm sorry for the low rating, but you really didn't tell me anything about the film. Although it's best not to give the plot away, you do need to give some of the storyline, even if only a basic outline. Karen :O)
