The greatest movie ever made..!

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

brilliant actors, brilliant editing

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

I don't even know why this movie was made. The plot is totally unoriginal, and the acting is painful to watch! I don't know how many times I heard one of the actor's/actress' lines and went: "WHAT? That's stupid!" You want an example? "If it makes a child happy, it's always the right thing to do." Excuse me? If a child wanted to go bungee jumping off a jumbo jet without a bungee cord because it would make them happy would you let them? "If you don't know what it is, how can you be afraid of it?" Hmmm, well believe it or not, people are usually scared of things that are unknown to them.On to the bad acting. I have to say, although the kids acting is just downright excruciating, the adults are way worse. Put yourself in the mother's position: your children have just stolen your car and you have no idea where they are. What's your initial reaction? I'll bet it doesn't involve showing no emotion and saying (in a monotone voice, I might add) "Oh no. The kids are gone and so is the car." And that's just the tip of the iceberg. On the upside, though, it's hilarious!

This movie had a very good base, but the acting was horrendous, and horrible! This is the worst acting that I have ever seen! Except for the adults, they were pretty good. For this movie if they got better actors and actresses this movie would be an excellent movie! Whenever something scary happened all of the actors and actresses wouldn't even act scared they would just run, they would also scream but it definitely wasn't real! I am definitely not seeing this movie ever again! No wonder I have never heard of any of these actors and actresses, for most of them this was the first and probably only thing they have ever done, and I can most definitely tell why! I most definitely do not recommend this movie for any age groups!

The acting in this movie was like lead and some of the worst I have seen. Not just the kids, but the adults as well.I know this is a kid's movie, but even my imaginary play was more creative than this.The script is awful, the acting worse, every "twist" is expected, and there is really no suspense at all.The animated movies we watch with my son are so much better in script etc. Perhaps not the worst movie ever, but pretty close.The characters are too "obvious" and the concept is no better than the imaginary play that I used to engage in as a child.

Give these kids a break! I thought the two girls and the red headed boy did a very good job. There were some weaker performers within the movie, but it does not diminish the quality of their performances. It was refreshing not to have to worry about language or sexual situations in a kids' movie. There were a lot of diversions which could muddy the plot for small kids, and I thought the style of the director kept the kids a little "too organized," ie, kids tend to run not walk when they are excited and rarely stand in perfect lines. Overall, it was refreshing to see a movie without special effects in which the kids actually thought about someone other than themselves and were able to work together as friends.
