Superfantastic movie that makes one raise a lot of questions on his/her own approach. My children love the movie so much they must have seen it +5 times but then again, we also don't have television etc etc :-). Much love

I really thought it was excellent. I was pretty raw when I saw it, and like I said I thought a few things were a little off, but overall really incredible. Glad your kids like it too. My 19 yo and I have started the 5 yo saying "Power to the People!" I thought the opening scene was maybe a little intense for my littles, but they seemed mostly ok after we established that it was not a reindeer. Much love right back to you, and thanks for stopping by to comment.
This shows that we are all "feel strong about different things". I did not react to the killing of the deer in the beginning. I grew up on a farm and killing animals was a normal part of life (though not usually in the same way as the movie shows). And as a side note that you do not have to share with your kids: raindeer meet tastes really good!
I've heard that but definitely won't share with them. They immediately wanted to know if it was one of Santa's reindeer. I love the idea of being more in tune with my food, and I think that really does mean a certain comfort with killing animals, but I just have a hard time getting past it. Ultimately I respect it but am perhaps a bit squeamish and a bit sentimental.
