About this product

Product Information

Animation master Gabor Csupo directs his first live-action film in this adaptation of the novel 'The Bridge to Terabithia' by Katherine Paterson, whose son David co-wrote the screenplay and serves as a producer. Jess (Josh Hutcherson) is misunderstood. Despite Jess' talents as an artist, the school bullies pick on him, his father (Robert Patrick) belittles his dreams, and his four sisters invade his space in the family's cramped house. Jess' bleak world changes when Leslie (AnnaSophia Robb) moves into the house next door. Bright, creative and outspoken, Leslie also finds herself an outsider in their school. Soon the two are thick as thieves, spending their after school hours exploring the woods beyond their backyards and on the others side of a creek, which Leslie deems the kingdom of Terabithia. Here, they create their own magical world, complete with a Dark Master and his minions, dragonfly soldiers, giant trolls and a treehouse fortress. In Terabithia, the two friends let their imaginations run wild and control their destiny, far away from school bullies and the pressures of adolescence. Hutcherson and Robb are well cast as Jess and Leslie in this coming-of-age tale. Hutcherson handles both the melancholy intensity and unbridled joy of his character beautifully, and Robb's smile and charisma are infectious. Zooey Deschanel also stars as Miss Edmunds, the music teacher who befriends Jess. Terabithia and its creatures are created by WETA Digital LTD, the same company that did the effects for the LORD OF THE RINGS trilogy and KING KONG.

  • Entertaining, watchable teen movie.

    Terabithia is a delightful teen fantasy film based in the American mid west farming belt. Jess and Leslie become friends and have a fantasy world in the woods in which imaginary characters come to life. Engaging throughout, there are moments of sadness, but highly watchable as my granddaughter will testify. Made by the people who made Narnia (but not a Narnia copy) so that may explain something

  • Replacement for one I had bought earlier, but wouldnt play as it was an American version,

    This one is an english version and plays here. It is a wonderful fantasy story for children with a tragic element when one of them dies accidentally. I bought this particularly for my grandson who had recently had a class mate die suddenly aged 12.
