I just returned from the Bridge to Terabithia movie. I must say, I loved it. All the mythical creatures in the previews are a miniscule part of the movie and only occur in spurts to show that they are imagining the terabithian world.
And yes, I cried a lot.
The movie is very well cast and sticks pretty close to the book! I think you'll love it!! Anybody else seen it??
That's what I suspected...that the fantastical elements were being way overplayed in the trailers. Haven't seen it yet, but went to Ghost Rider with my husband last night (he's a comic geek). On the way out, heard some brilliant commentators who were sitting behind us all evening refer to the Bridge to Terabithia movie as the sequel to The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. Yes, they were just as astute about their previous observations. Sheesh.
ReplyDeletehahahaha, they'll be really surprised if they see it!
