Mama Latina Tips received a copy of the movie to facilitate this post, as always my opinions are my own.
We had one of those moments today that just seem too few and far between. We actually sat down together, the four of us, and watched a movie. I can’t remember the last time we did that. And we enjoyed it. My older boy cuddled up next to me and my younger boy sat up on papa’s stretched out legs.
This was the first time we’d seen the movie and it was enchanting. And you know the cool part? I set up the movie to watch it in Spanish! What a great way to keep practicing.
Another thing we appreciated about the film was its nature focus. My kids were very interested in the all the plants and animals, specially the ones that camouflaged themselves. My oldest said his favorite part was seeing how nature responded to the Queen. My youngest said that he loved the whole thing!
I enjoyed it a lot, the graphics are brilliant, they are really incredible works of art. The story is sweet and combines humor, adventure and even a little love story. But most of all, after we watched both it and the special features, the movie gave us lots of topics to talk about including the special characteristics of all the different animals, the differences between a snail and a slug, how fascinating bats are, and how animals camouflage to protect themselves, just to name a few. We had some great discussions.
As always, I also appreciate it when a movie comes with both subtitles and audio in Spanish, English and French. As a matter of fact my older son changed the setup afterward and started watching it again in French with English subtitles.
So if you haven’t watch it yet, this is the time to go and get it. It’s in stores now! If you have seen it, then now’s the time to watch it again with the special features.
