The cover is very misleading
posted on 24 Dec 2008This movie is very disappointing. The cover is aimed at little kids, you would be forgiven for thinking it would all cute, warm and fuzzy.Definitely NOT! It is full of death war and violence! Please research this further before allowing your little girls watch this one.The suggestions of "if you liked this you'll like care bears" is also misleading. If you liked this movie you are more likely a nine to 12 year old boy into armies and battles.The movie glorifies war and dying for your country. I cannot say enough how disappointed I was and how misleading the cover and review on the cover is.
Yes, the cover is misleading
posted on 25 May 2009I was prepared to not watch this movie with my 4 year old son. It looks really lame on the cover. I was half watching, half reading until I saw the bandits. I closed my book and watched in awe as a beautiful Chinese fable unfolded on the screen. The elephants and humans don't speak to each other but they try to understand each other and everyone learns several real life lessons: Yes fighting is bad and we shouldn't do it, but sometimes you must defend your country and your family....your freedom.The blue elephant's mother tells him that fighting is bad but then when he is in the middle of a war he fights for what is important to him. This is a wonderful movie to use as a teaching tool for children who have family members in the service, to teach young children that they should not hit but that they shouldn't take a beating also....."is it worth it to get into a fist fight over a toddler toy at preschool - NO, but if someone is hurting you then you can defend yourself." It also works as a defense against adults - if a child understand bullying and tyranny they are more likely to fight against it.a wonderful movie, especially if you use it as a learning tool.
