Negative Positive
Title: Not for my kid.
Review: I don't quite understand other reviewers' comments that this is a "family-friendly" movie. First, one brother got killed then later the cub found out that his mom is dead; not to mention that throughout the other part of the movie, the other brother is ruthlessly hunting a bear (who's actually is the other brother). Why is it that most animated movies always killed off a family member? Bambi lost his mother, Simba in the Lion King lost his dad, Nemo's mom got killed, Long Neck in Land Before Time lost his mother. If animated movies are to be for kids then they should make it fun, entertaining, and perhaps even be silly for innocent minds, not filling them with fears of losing a family member. While watching this movie, my 3-year-old kept on asking where is the mommy bear, why is the hunter after the bear. She started to cry when the hunter was fighting with the bear. If the point of the movie is to teach compassion, I wish they would have done it differently.
Is the review positive or negative?
