Pete's Dragon - 7/10
Took my Daughter, she liked it, but I think I liked it more. I think the difference is the level of expectation, she was very excited about it and I just went because she wanted to go. It's essentially Jungle Book meets E.T. She still liked it enough that she wants to buy it, but I honestly don't know how many repeat viewings it would really get.
Skip the 3D as it is so underutilized that I often wondered if I was even watching a 3D movie. The film is already visually dark, due to where much of it takes place and the 3D just makes it look all the darker.
For those with little one, an early scene might be too disturbing for them, as it involves Pete's family dying in an automobile crash.
