Based on Katherine Paterson's young-adult novel and filmed in picturesque New Zealand, Bridge to Terabithia has lessons to impart about empathy and self-expression, but the tone is never heavy-handed. Jesse (sleepy-eyed Josh Hutcherson, Zathura), a fifth-grade loner, lives in the country with his parents and four sisters, including pesky May Belle (Bailee Madison), who adores him. His strict father (Robert Patrick, The Terminator 2) works in a hardware store. Money is tight and classmates make fun of his hand-me-downs, so Jesse finds refuge in running and drawing. Everything changes when two writers and their daughter Leslie (wide-eyed AnnaSophia Robb, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) move in next door. Leslie is faster than all the boys, which initially puts Jesse off, but the two soon bond over their love of make-believe. In the forest, they find a creek that can only be crossed by rope. Leslie names the land on the other side Terabithia, where they imagine themselves rulers of the kingdom. Jesse and Leslie also connect with their unconventional music teacher, Ms. Edmonds (Zooey Deschanel, Elf), who encourages their creativity. Despite the tension at home, Jesse's personal life is finally coming together when the unthinkable happens. Will he revert to his anti-social ways or will he grow from the experience? Though aimed at all ages, pre-school students may find Terebithia's creatures frightening. For grade-school kids and up, however, there's much to savor in this smartly written, sensitively acted film. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Rating:  - Friendship and Hardship
Based upon the award-winning book by Katherine Paterson, Bridge to Terabithia is a touching film about the bond between two children, both of them outcasts, who learn the importance of friendship and the power of imagination. The screenplay was written by Jeff Stockwell and co-written by David Paterson, the author's son, so the film remains quite faithful to the spirit of the book. The director, Gabor Csupo, handles the emotionally charged story with skill and sensitivity, which only heightens the ... Read More

Rating:  - Pointlessly depressing
This film could have been almost acceptable as a tragedy, if there was a point to all the suffering. There wasn't. It could have been a kid's adventure move if the characters had been written to see anything remotely amazing or grow in any more meaningful way. Not so. It could have been a morality play if characters' intentional actions were linked to consequences. They weren't.
As it is, the film is a vile protracted trudge through pointless suffering, punctuated by fleeting and insipid ... Read More
Rating: - excellent surprise
I was watching tv with my niece one night and Bridge to Terabithia came on a movie channel. From the advertisements I recalled it looked something like the Spiderwick Chronicles, something else I hadn't seen but wasn't interested in at all. I decided to put on Terabithia for my niece, and long after she went to bed I was hooked on the movie. I was so hooked in fact, that when a tragic event occurs towards the end of the film I was still fighting back tears long after. The beauties of love and loss are so well ... Read More
