As others have warned, this is NOT a movie for children (unless you love to torture them with horrific events).
My mother took my sisters and me to see this, based on the title and it was at Christmas time.
SPOILER ALERT!! SPOILER ALERT!! (Don't read if you plan on watching anyway)
Our younger sister, only 10 years old at the time, had nightmares for weeks. She was scared to get in the car and afraid our parent would get killed. Why? It's in the movie. This heartwarming little film has someone being short to death and children drowning when a car plunges in the water. We see it all. Since we had no internet at the time, our Mom didn't know these visions would appear in front of us kids until the "surprise" ending. Unfortunately the ending didn't quite redeem what you see for most of the movie. Oh yeah....there's the depressing issues of bankruptcy, a Suicidal mother, and an "Angel" who looks like a Pedophile and skulks around children as though he is one.
I know the world has changed, and children are a bit more savvy. However, I am writing this to let parents know and be forewarned.
