I finally watched Bridge to Terabithia tonight. First of all, I must say that the previews did not do it justice at all. The movie is actually very close to the book, although I must admit that I was confused at first because I thought it was supposed to be set in the 70s. It's, um, not historical fiction. Duh. :)
I loved Bailee Madison as May Belle. She was absolutely perfect. I also loved Zooey Deschanel as Ms. Edmonds. I think she is so pretty and she has those gorgeous blue eyes. If I were Jesse, I'd have a crush on her, too. ;)
So, yes. I liked it quite a bit and highly recommend it. Though, I will warn you that it's quite sad. I mean, obviously... but I was definitely glad I was watching it at home where I could cry in private.
