Very good little movie for children

A really nice movie for kids with a good plot. A boy is fascinated by vampires and eventually meets some, becoming their friend and helping them against the vampire hunter and with some other problems.The only logical hole in the story is, why does anyone hunt such sympathical, harmless vampires ? Or even worse, why does the hunter in one scene try to kill a boy which is obviously not a vampire ?But the movie is really well made and worth your precious time, if you want to be entertained.

Charming, slightly silly, slightly serious, good fun

The Little Vampire is a delightful film about a little boy from America, Tony, who is teased and picked on at his new school in Scotland by the local laird's obnoxiously arrogant grandsons. He meets and befriends Rudolph, the youngest son of a family of charming vampires, who are trying to save themselves from Rookery, a vicious and unscrupulous vampire killer. It is rated PG for some mild peril, to which I would add that very young children would need to have some of the life and death issues explained. Both my sons, ages 11 and 6, just loved the movie -- enough that my six year old wanted to see it again, and I didn't mind taking him. The lessons my kids learned were mostly about friends coming in a variety of shapes and sizes, and the value of loyalty and dedication to a cause. There are enough plot twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seat (at least the first viewing!), and although some of the dialogue is banal and predictable, some of it is deliciously witty. Last but not least, the costuming and special effects are wonderfully well done, and go a long way to making even some of the silly scenes very impressive. All in all, I would recommend it highly (to anyone who doesn't have trouble with the notion that vampires are not minions of Satan) as good, clean, amusing fun.
