I really think that this movie is a great children's movie. There are a lot of age groups that would enjoy it. We actually took our daughter and she really loved it a lot. I would definitely purchase it if it were to come out on DVD. The thing that makes it best for little ones is the bright colors and the music. Very interesting and it really does keep there attention. The Marionette is an awesome story and I can't wait until it comes our for purchase my daughter would love to see it again. You can tell there was a lot of caring loving people that could create such a wondering children's movie without all the modern stuff. Just simple. Really great movie.
