Imagine..................... (0/1 people found this helpful)

Reviewer: A reader from Cheshire United Kingdom
Richard Tyler is afraid of absolutely everything (he won't climb up into the treehouse that his dad is building for him because 8% of all accidents involve ladders and 3& involve trees!!). His dad asks him to go into town to buy some nails. He gets caught in a freak storm and takes refuge in a library, where he meets a mysterious librarian. He notices that there is a massive mural on the ceiling, on which are some of the most famous literature characters ever created. In the middle is a man holding a long staff and a book. All the characters and the man start to melt. Richard is turned into a cartoon. He meets the mysterios Pagemaster, who sends him on a magical journey through the library.
Being an adult, you wouldn't think that I would like this kind of film, but you'd be wrong. I love it!!!! I bought it about six months ago and I must have read it about 1,000 times (and I'm not exaggerating.) I love fantasy and adventure films, so this film is the perfect one for me.

If you want my advice, BUY IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Watching the mystery and adventure unfold (0/0 people found this helpful)

This was a film that I watched many times with my daughter. It tells the story of a young boy who does not seem to fit in - he discovers a world of mystery and adventure while sheltering from the rain in a library.

Watching this film had two positive outcomes (1)this film inspired my daughters imagination and (2)it encouraged her to read many more books than I ever did when I was her age.

Years later writing this review of a film that I have long enjoyed.....I consider this film to be the film that inspired my daughter's imagination. This film is probably now lost to us who would recommend it as the Harry Potter phenomenon has taken over. However, I would still recommend this movie to all.

Is a fantastic therapeutic metaphora for childrens (0/0 people found this helpful)

Many of us, parents that try to educate our childrens,sometimes do not know how to help our soons to win their fears: the metaphoras are one o the best way to do it,since they put a little seed of change that, if germinate, can provide a big change whit a little effort.Buy this movie to your soons, and let your love do the rest.

An excellent film for all ages (0/0 people found this helpful)

The main character is a paranoid young boy. When on an errand to the hardware store, he gets caught in a rain storm. Taking shelter in a library, he embarks on an adventure through some of the books on the shelves. This is an exciting and inspiring film.
