Nonureva Really Surprised!

Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.

Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Michael Cohen When I first watched this animated film in 2014, it make me feel touched of helping others and truehearted warming support of the siblings and it make me want to work hard for a living and to enjoy a country feel of this film. A great adaptation from the first Boxcar Children book and it really became one of the best animated films of all time! I would highly recommend to every Boxcar Children fan out there!

barbosa-vicki I loved the Boxcar Children as a teenager, and this film is true to the story. It's an exciting adventure, as the four children have to find their own place to live in secret and provide all their needs for food, shelter, and fun, while staying hidden from people they fear mean to separate them. It's a great tale of responsibility, hard work, caring and family. The animation is not Disney level but the scenery is beautiful and the colors vivid. A great film for the whole family.

Syl The Boxcar Children was first serialized in a book series for children. I picked up the DVD without reading the series first. It is not necessary to read it. The film is about four orphaned children in the Great Depression. They are avoiding a possible cruel grandfather that they never met. The children don't want to be separated. When they overhear the bakery lady and the baker decide to keep the older ones and send the youngest boy to the orphanage since he can't work so they runaway and make an old boxcar Into their home. J.K. Simmons provides the voice of Dr. Moore and Martin Sheen has also lend his voice. One criticism about the film occurs in the race where the lead runner is barefoot. I think it was an oversight.

Rebecca Marie This movie is a great adaptation of the 1st book in the popular kids series. Fans of the books will appreciate how the movie stays true to the spirit and feel of the book. It is heartwarming and sweet. Even kids (and adults) who are not familiar with these books will love the movie. The story is entertaining, warm and uplifting. The children in the movie are caring and supportive. The positive messages about hard work, creativity, love and family make this a movie parents will be happy to have their kids watch again and again.It's a wonderful movie for the whole family. Hopefully we'll see more from the series.Highly recommend!
