This film is fantastic! I found it to be fun for all the family and it would be the perfect film to sit down and enjoy whilst the children are home from school in the holidays. The story line is simple but teaches children real values in life such as friendship, never giving up and happiness. The plot is not too complicated so children are able to follow it easily. The film is entertaining and there are parts which manage to keep you on the edge of your seat however there are also some moments which will keep you laughing. Overall there is a heartfelt joyful happy ending. As a adult I enjoyed watching this film and I know Maxwell liked watching it too. He was mesmerized by watching the fish on his TV screen and he kept pointing at Sammy who was clearly his favorite. I was impressed with the amazing graphics and scenes. Everything was thought out clearly. Maxwell and I enjoyed the soundtrack in the film which got our feet tapping. Featuring The Clash, Bob Dylan and the B52's, we believe it should be a hit.
This film includes a Ultraviolet code which is a redemption code which you get when you purchase the DVD which allows you to download the film on up to 5 different devices so you can share it with friends or family by using a Flixter account. I love this idea and will be sharing the code with my friends and family so they are also able to enjoy the film.
