Wonder - DVD

A while back, I had heard that a movie named Wonder was coming out in theaters but I didn't really know anything about it. Recently, my kids' school started reading the book together so I decided to read it too. Once I heard what the book is about, I ordered the movie as well to watch after I finished reading the book (I'm a read the book before watching the movie kind of person!). My husband and I watched it last night and we both really enjoyed it! Wonder is the story of ten-year-old Auggie Pullman, an ordinary kid who was born with a facial deformation. He likes to do the same things that other kids his age like and he's about to enter mainstream school for the first time. His mom has always homeschooled him but she feels it's best that he go to public school now. Auggie is used to people staring at his face and not wanting to be around him but that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt his feelings. His first year at Beecher Prep will be a year of growth for everyone involved and they will learn what it means to #ChooseKind. Wonder stars Julia Roberts, Owen Wilson, and Jacob Tremblay. It's rated PG and runs approximately 113 minutes long. This movie is presented in English 5.1 Dolby Digital Audio, Spanish and French 5.1 Dolby Digital Audio, English Descriptive Audio, English and Spanish Subtitles, and English SDH. Wonder is a fantastic movie that is perfect for all ages! My husband and I watched it together and enjoyed it. I would also watch it with my five-year-old twins if they wanted to watch a non-animated movie. There is "mild language" used with the kids at school but there is no swearing or inappropriate sensual scenes. There are some humorous parts that we enjoyed as well as some emotional scenes. Overall, it was a heartwarming and beautiful story that left me feeling happy and wanting to be even kinder to everyone! As far as the comparison to the book goes, there are some differences but the main parts of the book are covered. Of course, the book covers a lot more details and I would encourage you to read Wonder first. If you prefer to only watch the movie, you will still understand the story and get a lot of enjoyment out of it. This is a wonderful movie and I highly recommend it! It would make a great movie to watch together as a family and it'll inspire everyone to want to be kinder. I'm glad we bought this because I will definitely want to watch it many more times and I have friends who want to borrow it! #ChooseKind

Seen this so many times. I rented it to show to my class. We had finished the book and I promised them they could see the movie. It's a good one and very close to the book.

This movie was so good, but I wish there was more plot and storyline to it

Sad movie but a great watch

Finding a movie that all three kids want to watch that is age appropriate isn’t easy. This one is perfect though! Bonus was that it taught a great lesson and modeled good behavior for elementary and middle school kids.

Great movie. I bought it for research before a doctor who also lives with the syndrome came to give a seminar at my school. Everyone should watch it.

Heart warming film. A good choice

I can’t say enough about the movie Wonder! My granddaughter absolutely loves it, and it has quickly become a family favorite. The story teaches such powerful life lessons—like remembering we are created by God and treating others the way we want to be treated. It’s uplifting, emotional, and full of heart. We’ve watched it multiple times, and I still cry every time. I’m so happy we bought it—this is a movie every family should own!

Bien que le colis soit extérieurement en parfait état, le boîtier du dvd était cassé et des bouts de plastique avaient endommagé le dvd. Ce n'est donc pas un problème de livraison mais un boîtier cassé m'a été envoyé.

原作WonderとAuggie & Me: Three Wonder Storiesを読んでから見ました。 本を読んでいるときに想像した数々の名シーンが映像化されて感動ものです。 しかしながら、原作から端折られている部分が多く、もったいないなーと思います。 そしてそのため、映画から入った人は理解できない部分がいくつかあるのではないかと思います。例えば、ジャックの母親がジャックにオーギーの世話をするように説得するときにアイスクリーム屋の話をしますが、映画では全く理解できないと思います。また、ジュリアンがタッシュマン先生に素直に謝るシーンには深い意味がありますが、2冊目を読んでいないとどうしてこんな展開になっているのか理解できないと思います。きっと原作を読んでいる人を対象に作られた映画なのでしょう。 まだこの映画を見ていない人はぜひ原作を読んでからご覧下さい。 そうすれば10倍楽しめますよ。

Ce film est vraiment très poignant ! Basé sur le livre du même nom, le film nous narre l’histoire de Auggie Pullman et de tout son entourage. Le protagoniste a une déformation faciale ce qui lui causait de multiples opérations et allez-venus a l’hôpital. Maintenant il rentre en 6eme (ou CM2 en VO et dans le livre), et il doit faire face a l’école, au regard des autres. Le film a ses moments touchants, comme drôles! Tous les personnages sont humains et réalistes , ils ont leurs faiblesses, leurs qualités et leurs défauts. Il est intéressant de voir les différents point de vues des personnages entourant Auggie. Le thème de la différence est traitée avec justesse: comment cela affecte l’enfant et son entourage également. Le regard des autres, l’incompréhension. Mais aussi la tolérance, l’amitié, les erreurs que l’ont peu faire quand on est un enfant jeune et insouciant. Je ne vais pas aller en détails sur tous ce qui est traités dans le film, car y’aurait encore beaucoup à dire ! Un film poignant et émouvant mais aussi attachant ! A voir et à revoir en famille pour apprendre des bonnes valeurs !

It arrived quickly and was exactly as described.

It was a fantastic DVD!!
