Bridge to Terabithia (DVD) Reviews

I first came across 'Bridge to Terabithia' at school when we read it in English class. That was some years ago now and when in 2007 I saw a film being advertised on the TV I was quite excited about it. I ended up watching the film last week as I never got round to seeing it on the big screen. Jesse Aarons lives with his parents and five ...  Read the complete review

note: also appears in part on Flixster and The Student Room Bridge to Terabithia is based on the Katherine Paterson novel of the same name, and while it is primarily aimed at children, this is a story with uncommon depth, and one that is difficult to fully appraise without giving away its brilliant conceit. While most kids fantasy films ...  Read the complete review

This film is a very surprising experience. When I purchased this I expected to have film which was very similar to the "Chronicles of Narnia" which I enjoyed, It was not like that at all. Instead I got a really good story about friendship and a sons relationship with his dad and family. The main plot ...  Read the complete review

I am always surprised to find this film in the kid´s film section which I think comes from the, for me, errant advertising when it first came out in cinemas. Undoubtedly suitable for children and about children Bridge to Terabithia is an absorbing drama about friendship, family and the importance of imagination and dreams. Based on the ...  Read the complete review

Get your hankies ready with this one! Also, this is a review for blu-ray. I saw this on Play.com (I think it was one of their 3 for £30) and thought why not. It's high time my PS3 had a few blu-ray titles to play with. I enjoy a fantasy yarn and thought this one would be right up my street. This is a story about escapism, ...  Read the complete review

This is a film which was recommended to me on my review for the Spiderwick Chronicles so after enjoying that film so much I went and got this one. The film is made by the same people who made the Chronicles of Narnia which both me and hubby enjoyed so we were looking forward to watching this. I have to say that I did enjoy it but it just wasn't a ...  Read the complete review

Bridge To Terabithia This weekend while visiting a friend we decided to have a relaxed afternoon and stick on a film and have a glass of wine. As her ten year old son was with us we decided to watch the children's movie Bridge to Terabithia. I have heard of the film before but didn't really know much about it. I didn't know who ...  Read the complete review

I watched this at christmas in 2008 as my 6 yr old daughter had it as a present. I never knew what to expect as id heard nothing about it so we sat down to watch it one cold afternoon. To be honest i was into this film straight away,sometimes i lose interest,but not in this case. The film is very much in the mould of a Narnia ish ...  Read the complete review

This is a depressing movie that was horribly misrepresented in the previews. I won't go so far as to say i hated it but i strongly disliked it. You think that the movie will be kind of mystical and fun-WRONG! I was mad that I paid full price at the theatres and would not recommend the movie unless maybe you liked the book the movie is based on. I ...  Read the complete review

!!!SPOILER ALERT!!! This film is not what I expected at all. The trailer shows lots of fantasy creatures and goblins etc. and I was convinced it would be like Narnia/Harry Potter. I enjoyed the film a lot, but I was shocked to see that it was nothing like Narnia at all. Rather than an adventure movie, this was much more of a drama about ...  Read the complete review

Bridge To Terabithia is not what you would expect it to be, the trailer gives you a very clear idea of what you think it is about, even using the blurb 'from the makers of the Chronicles of Narnia' to reinforce this impression. While it does have certain elements of what you expect it is done in a completely different way to your ...  Read the complete review

I was anxious to see this film with my son because I imagined it to be a similar film to Hook; built on pure fantasy and unadulterated imagination. I expected action, adventure, vibrant colours, happy music, cute baby-faced smiles and funny one-liners. Whatever I had been expecting from this film, it didn’t really fit a mould in the way I had ...  Read the complete review
