I know that Disney got the rights to publish the movie for kids but in my personal opinion I think this movie should be for all the audiences after all more mature people could understand better than little kids what is going on, but still its a movie that have a nature for little kids and that is what is the best part


Over all I love it my only complain is that most of the kids in there did not stop talking so I could not enjoy fully but that normal

Actually, you would be surprised at how keen children really are. As a teacher (and a teaching student), I've come to notice that children have the innate capacity to pick up on the subtle nuances that we think go right over their heads. I had a conversation with one of my professors with a young daughter (6 y.o.) and she was shocked at how she could comprehend Shawn's (Sho's) brush with his own mortality. It was really touching to hear stories from parents who took their kids to this film, expecting another mainstream Disney movie and coming out of it as whimsied as the children.

As for our theater going experience, ours was pretty subdued (surprisingly, considering the theater was 90% 8 & under). I would go again if it were in the budget!
