"Mee-Shee: The water Giant DVD
This movie is kind of a cross between E. T. and the Loch Ness Monster. The movie is a little over the top with many unrealistic occurrences. However, it is fun and the kids really enjoyed it.
The parts that some people may be offended by are when the boy uses the words "die furball" to a stuffed animal. This is a realistic reaction for a kid that just had his dream of going to Disney Land destroyed! The other offensive phrase was when a little girl calls the boy "dirt bag". Personally, I didn't think the movie needed to add these phrases but that is all the negative wording that I heard in this movie.
There is some violence in the movie especially at the end that might disturb young viewers. However, most of the movie is mild. Another thing that some people might object to is that the bad guys supposedly worked for Green Peace. We felt that they worked for a rival oil company and just used Green Peace as their cover. The movie doesn't really elaborate.
If you're an adult, you'll probably pick this movie apart and find all the things wrong with it. But if you're a child, you'll really enjoy the story line. My kids couldn't get enough of this movie which really says it all. It's no more violent than the Lion King or other Disney films.
Recommended for families with pre-teens or so.
