Not just for kids. Had many parts that had the adults laughing out loud. Also had a good message about people with special needs being valued, which I felt they addressed in a tasteful way.

Now, if you're watching with little kids, you might want to mention to them that...no, their goldfish is not going to survive being tossed into a mop bucket, or hopping across a sidewalk, or other crazy place like they do in Finding Dory!

I bought this, mainly for my daughter. I decided that I'd watch it, to try and gauge at what point it would be appropriate for her age. I ended up loving the film.

The film goes along the lines of Jumanji - a game that pulls the players into it. The plot of the film is that two brothers begin playing, and find themselves in outer space, beseiged by all manners of spaceborne things from meteorites to alien lizards. There are several good messages that the film gets across, like 'try to get along with your brothers and sisters'. These ideas aren't really pushed in your face, but they're pretty obvious, nonetheless. This is one of the things I liked about it. I enjoy films that are geared toward kids that contain positive messages - they get too few of them these days.

The special effects were great, the acting was very good for a movie filled with child actors, and the action sequences were okay for even younger kids to watch. I haven't watched it in 5.1 yet, so I can't comment on the audio quality, but my guess is that it's fine, just based on all the other criteria I look at when watching a film.

My nearly 9 year old daughter really enjoyed this movie, and I admit to not minding it myself.  It had some good messages and dealt with difficult issues such as a grandparent hurting themselves and friends growing apart.  Please know that the dance performances are more representative of teenagers than 4th graders, but hey, that's hollywood.

Good movie with a good message.  I liked how the movie has comedic moments and then jolts you back into the seriousness of the situation.  Sandra Bullock is great!

A nice mellow movie teaches about friendship and acceptance without being over preachy.
I give it 4.5 stars. Don't think of Peter Dinklage as a little person. Think of him as a good actor.

Fun movie with great messages.  Happy to have watched it.  Thought it was going to be a bit more comedy, but still great.

Good movie with one of my favorite lead actors- Fred MacMurray. It is a funny story with with some sad parts. I beileve the movie's message is about hope during hard times. Having hope and sharing hope with others.

I thought this movie was a nice change of pace. It was funny and had a really good message. If you don't go to church you may not like it. But that doesn't mean you will not find it entertaining, to say the least.  Just give it a chance.  It's a movie you could even watch with your family.

I really enjoyed this movie and when young people can sit down and be captivated by the message of this movie then it really is something to sing about!

I really enjoyed the film. I am usually a fairly tough critic when it comes to Christian cinema (cinema in general), but I am more critical with Christian cinema because the message is so crucial. Overall the movie is well done, the overall acting is good, there are some rough patches, i.e. some music issues and a few weirdly delivered lines (not unlike many other movies), but the story is layered and has many beautiful subtle moments that resonate. This movie takes some risks with the story telling and content, but it is not unnecessary or graphic which is a relief. I also like that it is not completely predictable. There is a tension that is there, and that is part of what makes it a good story.
