    I really really love this movie, I've seen it a bunch of times and I always wish that I was like winnie foster, just the whole directing, music, language I know I say this a lot, but, it kinda feels magical at times :)

    It's a good movie. I personally like the original better though.

    I've seen it, but it's been awhile. I like movies like that, fairytale-like.

    i liked the movie, but i hated the ending. why couldn't she just drink the damn water and be with the hot guy? is that much of a concept?


    maybe i should have read the book first, so i wouldn't be disappointed

    hahahahahahahahahaha, I thought the same thing the first time I saw it!

    also, off topic, but I love your sig pic!

    k, back on topic, I love this movie, it's just so sweet, and the moral was great, plus, I love what Tuck says to Winney on the boat, about life being a wheel, very groovy. The movie really (to me) says alot about how we learn by what we do, and living life to the fulest.

    awsome movie :0)

    I like the book better too...but I did enjoy the movie alot. I sort of liked how they made Winnie a bit older, changed alot of things, but not in a bad way...I think sometimes things have to be changed to make it more exceptable for modern times, like their romance- although it was more innocent in the book (which was lovley as well) would really not have been ok with an 11 year old and a 16 year old in the movie, because they oviously wanted to make the story more about that...

    It was very beautiful and well done I think, cast, scenery, music...all great. When I saw it in the theatre my friend and I (another fan of the book) got hysterical crying...I remember being the same way when I finished the book in like grade 6...

    lol i konw, the reason i didnt like the book so much was because she was so young and I kinda couldnt buy into the whole, " i feel so suffocated and i need to escape" when your 11 years old.

    It was my favorite book when I was in like fourth grade... I bet I read it twenty times or something... :) I didn't go see the movie, I just assumed it sucked.
