Absolutely Fantastic

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

This movie is awful. However, for reasons unbeknown to me, my kid likes this movie.*Spoiler* You have been warned.To respond to a few of the reviews, in the context of the movie, it makes sense that the old guy would hide the book in the church, given that most people in previous generations went to church - even if they weren't 'believers'. People are correct when they say that all viewers aren't Christian, but it is also correct to point out that a lot of Disney viewers are Christians and support the Disney brand because they tend to be family-friendly. It's a delicate line movie makers walk to tell their stories. I'm not sure how you'd tell this particular story and exclude the church and the "good/evil" element. It would have lost a lot of its 'punch'. Honestly, I thought this scene w/the old man and the kids in the church was the best part of the movie. Besides the end.

We wanted a movie from Cox on Demand. It was between space Jam, or this garbage. When Air Bud came out, it was a great movie about man's best friend, and playing basketball with him. It slowly regressed to a lame movie that only Justin Bieber- Disney XD liking brainwashed children can like. SPOILER AHEAD YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!the story consists of a hell-hound who tries to eat the souls of five sibling puppies, the puppies masters dress them up for Halloween, and big surprise, they can talk. Just like the previous movies. I don't deny that the hell-hound might scare little children, but from what I saw, they are expecting a horror of demonic proportions like Paranormal Activity, or anything Stephen king writes

I have read a review on here with a person being so upset that the spooky buddies is pushing religion in the face of their children!!!! The BUDDIES series is a Disney made series for children and young people, it do not push religion in your face, it's all for who ever believes in what ever....I am united, a Christianity religion but that does not mean the movie is poking religion in my face or your. If you look into all movies and TV shows your child watches, you will see that all movies are created to entertain a certain audience....I am all for the SPOOKY BUDDIES and all of their movies. Children love the buddies, and it isn't all about religion...just some people want to cause a riot I guess

My six year old son found this movie to "spooky" to finish. He begged me to turn it off because he was scared. I found it cute and was surprised he didn't like it, since he is such a big fan of these films. At the time I rented it, the clerk warned me that some other children also found it scary. In the end, I will say it was a great movie in the lines of these movies, but just be prepared for your little one to get a little scared. I will try it again, when he is older, possibly next year. I would also like to mention that people need to remember these movie are made for small children so silly, over acting is expected.
