Pete's Dragon

Sorry this is a little late in posting, but my health took a nose dive yesterday.  Yeah, 24 hours from now we will know if I am cursed to repeat the prior four months or not - sigh ..... :(

Anyway, took two of my grandchildren to see Pete's Dragon.  I had seen the original Disney cartoon as a child - heavens who knows how many decades ago?  I was not impressed with it.  So, not expecting too much from this one.

Of course, it is the story  of  boy and a dragon whom adopts him.
Of course, bad guys discover the dragon and hunt it down.
Of course, the boy is captured and civilized.
Dragon escapes.
Boy escapes.
And the movie ends on a a very nice up note.

Why say so little?  Because you need to see the movie if you can stand a tear jerker, this also funny and exciting.

It is a great movie - definite owner.
Though I will not watch it much, I always get headaches when i cry ...
