We took our daughter to see it over the weekend. My favorite part was (and is) all the "grown-ups" in the theater talking about the heavy-handedness of the message. Well, here's a newsflash: the message (nor the movie itself) was not intended for our jaded asses.
My daughter (6-years-old) loved the movie and she didn't seem to have a problem with the "heavy-handedness" of the message. Since the movie is actually intended for an audience of pre-teens and earlier they have to be pretty overt with any message they are trying to convey.
