Purrview:

At A Glance(Netflix): This star-studded adaptation of Kate DiCamillo's Newberry Medal-winning book tells the tale of an unusually gifted mouse named Despereaux (voiced by Matthew Broderick) who falls in love with a human princess (Emma Watson). Despereaux's different from other mice in that he reads books and has disproportionally large ears for his body. But with help from a rat named Roscuro (Dustin Hoffman), he sets out to win the girl of his dreams.

1) Likes - i love animation that almost all animated movies I've watched. i love mice and rats and the fact that despereaux is unique. He is the only mouse who has that extra-large ear that makes him iconic (well at least Mickey's proportioned to his face i think). I also love soup coz it is food for the soul. So what not to like about a mouse + soup movie haha (+1 point)

2) Dislikes None (+1)

3) Characters/Actors - despereaux is my fav character because he is cute, brave, and valiant. i like the way he introduces himself "I am a gentleman." I wish i have a mouse like that ( +1point)

4) Overall - this movie is inspiring and reminding me that no matter how small i feel when big problems come my way, if my heart says that im bigger that problem, i know i can overcome everything. it also showed that this planet is not only for man but for animals as well. like us, we should also give them the respect of being a living thing. i love the ending of the story because it shows how people and their emotions are interconnected with each other. it is reminiscent of benjamin button scene. (+1)

5) a) Purrfect to watch on (recommended to watch on) BigSCREEN!
b) Can you afford to miss the movie? No (+ 1 point)

Purrvorite Scenes:

1) When the Roscuro fell on the soup and the Queen died because she cant believe she just ate a soup where the rat was bathing. Poor Roscuro
2) the teacher is teaching them to be a mouse meaning to get scared from humans and their tools. when the teacher prompted the knife, despereaux was the only one who did not cower

3) The council talked to the parents that Despereaux was not ordinary and as a proof, he drew a picture of a cat in his notebook
4) The Bad Guy was finally eaten by the Bad Cat
