I took the kids to see this a few days ago. Another excellent movie which had all the parts of a good movie-some comedy, suspense, mystery, drama and overall real life events. The kid actor was great and the tension in the family due to their dad leaving them really brought the story together for me. The kids loved it and want to buy it on DVD.

This movie was really good. It was adventurous, frightening, mysterious and fun. This movie will appeal kids and parents of all ages. Another helpful hint is that reading the books really helps you understand the movie. I would highly recommend it.
