I was worried it wouldn't meet my expectations but this movie exceeded them greatly. It wasn't just a movie for kids, but a movie that warms the cockles of the whole family's heart. It is a coming-of-age movie about growing up, forever friendships, trust, loyalty, honor, selflessness, forgiveness, compassion, doing the right thing, and family. You can't beat that!
