The life of Jesse (Josh Hutcherson), an adolescent, changes when he befriends Leslie (AnnaSophia Robb), the class outsider. The children create an imaginary world called Terabithia, which is inhabited by all manner of magical creatures. Though difficulties fill their ordinary lives, Jesse and Leslie rule as king and queen in Terabithia. Soon one of the friends must draw on the strength of their imaginary kingdom to cope with a tragedy.
Movie theaters showing Bridge to Terabithia near Madison, WI:
I expected a fanciful, fun fantasy film (how's that for poetry?) and sat instead through a film that struggled to get going and ended with death. PG needs to be reconsidered and its MPAA rating with "some peril" is a little off. Leslie's death is as traumatizing as the unexpected loss of Bambi's mother and this dramatic story about Jesse's growth is meant for adults, not kids.
