• The best sequel for "The Boxar Children" based on the books.

  All of the actors nailed it. The animation is the best and it looks so realistic. I didn't care what the people say but this movie is just so amazing. I highly recommend it just like the first movie. Please see this sequel when it comes on DVD in case if you forgot to see it in theaters.

• Wonderful family series

  A wonderful movie that is great for the family and gives the feel of reading through the classic children's book. I hope they continue this series.

• Not the typical kids film

  This movie is wonderfully different from most films made for children. Its more of a drama and has only a few moments of action and no stupid jokes. The kids spend the summer on a small island and discover the simple pleasures of exploring nature, using their imaginations and enjoying there own independence. Along the way they discover a family secret and the importance of second chances. I think my kids are fascinated by this film (they have watched it repeatedly) because its so different from most of what is available out there. I love the film because that characters have a whole summer of fun without any cell phones or computers!
