Rated
for frightening
images, thematic elements and language
Funny thing at the credits: Look for a "special" message from Madame Leota at the end of the credit roll.It sounds deadly familiar to the ending of the Disneyland ride.
Notes: Eddie Murphy was funny and a good dramatic actor at the same time. It shows family values and love. It is a good movie for kids as long as they can handle some dead people. The talking heads were very creative. The graphics were good for a Disney movie. This movie is basically a horror movie for kids.The only problems with this movie is there could have been more to the very ending.
Bottom Line: The best bet for this movie would be to BUY it or rent it if you would feel safer that way.
