Bridge to Terabithia

Bridge to Terabithia! Was In Mid Valley for the premiere screening for it. From the same director for The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, the movie was nicely shot from the very beginning till the end. However, the trailer for the movie had absolutely fooled me into watching this, thinking that it contains the very same elements of Narnia. You know, magical world, extraordinary powers, war between the good and evil, etc. Yet, the movie turned out completely different from what I expected it to be.

As a kid movie, which is based on the best selling novel as well, it is, perhaps surprisingly, truly entertaining, though Jess would totally disagree with my saying. Anyway, it's questionable about the existence of Terabithia, whether it's just another plain imagination dimension or a realm that only the chosen ones with a free, wide mind can only see with their eyes.

Wouldn't say much about the movie. The actors can act, which makes the movie almostjyful. Some humors can also be found once in a while in few segments of the movie. "Free to pee... arghh!!!" is one of it. Other than that, the ironic ending to the movie is excruciating to watch. All had been said, a movie that deserves a ***1/2 from me.
