Since I reviewed this movie after the remake, February 2007, I was very disappointed watching the original. More so because in the 2007 version the parts that both Jess and Leslie imagined were very well animated. Also, there was not as much character development in the PBS version; so the viewer is not as drawn into the emotion that Jess feels when he loses his new best friend, Leslie. This story was supposed to be a tragic but revealing experience for a young pre-adolescent who has to deal with ... Read More

I knew this one before Disney remade it. The remake is fine, too. For children. But this one, the original, is for those who are sick and tired of all the special effects movies these days. For a mature audience this story works much better without these special effects.

This is the kind of piece I would teach in my classroom. The story lines are real-life-oriented and valid.

Yes this is an older movie (1985) and it is not as visually spectacular as the Disney version, however, I enjoy this version of Bridge to Terabithia much more. It is more closely based on Kahterine Paterson's novel. It is especially wonderful to watch after your child has read the novel. I showed it to my 4th grade students and they loved it.

I wish there would have been other poor reviews of this movie prior to my purchasing it. It is my opinion the positive reviewers must have been reviewing the recent theatre version of "Bridge to Teribithia." The storyline in this PBS version was very lack-luster and slow-moving. It falls way short of the promises on the back of the cover. The imaginary world of Terabithia is never seen as more than a nice little wooded area where the main characters go to play. There is very little reference to ... Read More
