REVIEW:
So much fun!
What an awesome soundtrack too! I found myself singing along right from the beginning.
I really liked how this film gently explains to young minds about death and dying. The explanation given was fantastic. Usually kids wouldn't understand, but this film had a clever way of reasoning and reassuring the child. I loved how it all went down.
Parents will enjoy this movie but it really is for the kids, aged 6-12.
3/5
