Well, maybe it's not technically a fantasy movie since it's all clearly in the kids imaginations. But it's a really good and surprisingly poignant film that handles some serious issues without pulling any punches, it's an honest kids movie and you don't see a lot of those anymore.
I don't know, I read the book Bridge to Terabithia when I was a kid and I literally balled my eyes out in it and thought it was the most fantastic thing I'd ever read. As a young'un it's not often that you enjoy reading let alone be so moved by something at such a young age. So when I saw the movie as an adult I was a little disappointed that it didn't have the same effect.
