The rough guide to kids' movies - Paul Simpson

Kids' Movies - where do you start?
There are hundreds of them out on video and DVD, and life (or at least, childhood) is too short to discover the gems, or to endure the dross. Which is where this Rough Guide comes in, reviewing the best kids' films across genres from action to fantasy to westerns, and telling you, crucially, if they're any good. The Rough Guide includes reviews of more than 250 kids' movies, celebrating recent hits such as Finding Nemo and Elf, as well as classics like The Wizardof Oz and lesser-known gems like Miyazaki's Kiki's Delivery Service. There is also full coverage of more than 100 'grown up' movies, from James Bond to Jane Austen, which should divert and delight older kids. For each entry there is advice on content and suitablility the film, noting scenes or language which might disturb younger viewers - or their parents!
