The Boxcar Children (2014) Reviews
Great Kids Movie!!!!
This movie is a great adaptation of the 1st book in the popular kids series. Fans of the books will appreciate how the movie stays true to the spirit and feel of the book. It is heartwarming and sweet. Even kids (and adults) who are not familiar with these books will love the movie. The story is entertaining, warm and uplifting. The children in the movie are caring and supportive. The positive messages about hard work, creativity, love and family make this a movie parents will be happy to have their kids watch again and again.It's a wonderful movie for the whole family. Hopefully we'll see more from the series. Highly recommend!
True to the book.
The movie is a low budget adaptation of the book. It is a very warm and gentle, even old fashioned kind of film. Very safe and you don't have to worry about your kids watching it over and over as it has a very positive message. Just like in the book, the kids are polite and supportive of each other. They discover that hard work leads to independence and that the most important thing is life is your family. There are one or two mildly scary moments but for the most part this is a movie even little kids can watch with any worries. I wish there were more movies like this being made for kids these days. Also I would recommend reading the book to your kids cause it makes watching the movie even more fun.
A faithful and charming adaptation
I loved the Boxcar Children as a teenager, and this film is true to the story. It's an exciting adventure, as the four children have to find their own place to live in secret and provide all their needs for food, shelter, and fun, while staying hidden from people they fear mean to separate them. It's a great tale of responsibility, hard work, caring and family. The animation is not Disney level but the scenery is beautiful and the colors vivid. A great film for the whole family.
Perfect movie for the hyper child
I'm not going to harp on this movie much for its bad animation and choppy characters that look and move an awful lot like the characters in the Heidi series from a few years ago. I'm going to tell you you what is great about this movie. Unlike most movies or shows for kids now a days boxcar children is not obnoxious. It's the calmest and most laid back program I've ever seen for children. It really mellowed out my 5 year old daughter. It was relaxing for she and I both. That's what i loved about this title the most. I wish there were more of these movies to be made. There just aren't enough things for kids to watch that are safe and relaxing as well as watchable.
Best Movie from the book!
When I first watched this animated film in 2014, it make me feel touched of helping others and truehearted warming support of the siblings and it make me want to work hard for a living and to enjoy a country feel of this film. A great adaptation from the first Boxcar Children book and it really became one of the best animated films of all time! I would highly recommend to every Boxcar Children fan out there!
