Do not judge by today's standards as a skeptic
29 May 2005
I like so many of commentators here saw this film as a child on TV and loved it. I couldn't remember the name of it and scoured the movie books when I grew up until I found it. When I saw it on video I bought it and showed it to my preschooler who watched and watched it until the video started to wear out. I had a friend come over and when he saw it on the shelf he was delighted as he too had the same memories , his preschooler now has it as his favourite movie.

You can't judge this film as an adult because it wasn't aimed at adults , if you want to pick holes in it you can but if a kid can use his imagination to smooth over the poor effects and acting why can't adults? Let yourself go into the fantasy, relive a little of your childhood and let your kids get wrapped up in it as well . Great kids adventure .
