COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Okay submitted by jarroyo on June 19, 2015, 11:19am I think this movie is okay. It's kind of dark for a children's film. My kids (3 and 6) did not really like it. It scared them a little.

Boxtrolls submitted by SBNB on June 25, 2015, 9:35pm Boxtrolls isn't bad. It started slow, but it picked up and then was fairly entertaining.

good submitted by Jackie77 on August 5, 2015, 11:08am Cute movie. My niece and daughter enjoyed it more than I, maybe better for tweens then. Character voices were pleasant enough.

Different submitted by AprilCDB on August 6, 2015, 1:28pm This was a different movie, interesting. My son said he liked it. It was entertaining enough.

cute submitted by Cory Michael on July 26, 2016, 9:20am My kids really enjoyed this movie. We even made box clothes for a few days. I don't think they fully understood that someone had tried to do dark things to the boys father but maybe when they are older they will get it.
