Rating:  - Childhood wonders regained.My grand daughter and I watched this twice a week for months when she was 4 or 5. Our reunion with Once Upon a Forest was cause for celebration, and also for wonderment, as we saw it with older eyes, and wondered even at ourselves, who we could have been "way back then." Thanks for having it available. Kenny Rating: - Forest CrittersThis movie is like Secret of NIMH with a children's twist. It's full of comedy, adventure, and friendship. This movie is entertaining to children as well as informative for parents. This is absolutely a great movie. Rating:  - "Once Upon A Forest": Guaranteed To Make Your Children CryI like how most of these reviews mention the fact that Michelle goes into the toxic gas-filled house and "finds her parents". They conveniently forgot to mention that, when she goes in and "finds her parents", she sees them with their heads down on the kitchen table DEAD. It's dark and gloomy inside, and they're DEAD. I mean, yeah, this movie has a good message about being environmentally conscious (and the other parents emerge at the end alive), but they totally downplay the emotional trauma that Michelle probably endured when walking in to find her own parents dead from toxic fumes, not to mention the fear that the other animals felt when thinking that they had all lost their parents. How is a young child supposed to watch this and interpret that scene? Are we just assuming that they're too young to understand or "get it"? And, if one would answer that previous question with a "No", then why would we purposely want to subject them to such a depressing theme in the first place? And do we really need such an extreme to get the point across? The answer is no -- Ferngully made a much stronger point about saving the environment, and even that annoying bat didn't die in the process. The bottom line is, this children's movie is really depressing. The major problem here is the fact that a young character clearly walks into her house to find her dead parents (whether you want your kids to watch that or not is up to you). Yes, The Lion King showed Simba cuddling his dead father, BUT the difference here is that the mice are living in a "domestic" environment, much similar to humans. In other words, the Lion King is more primitive, whereas these little furlings go to school, wear clothes, act like children, have homes with kitchens and mothers that wear aprons. It hits a little closer to home, don't you think? Aside from that, it is, for the most part, pretty formulaic and typical of the genre. So, if you don't want your children to be exposed to as mature a theme as the death of family, there are plenty of other movies to choose from.
