i was looking forward to this so much and being a big fan of the book. however and when it came out i remember thinking it was one of the biggest wastes of money and time i have ever spent at the cinema. in principle and the acting and the sets and the music were excellent and and are the main reason why i am rating this a 4. in this version and sara is a little too self sacrificing for my taste. there is no way she would have deliberately lied to miss minchin just to stop her punishing the other girls while in the book she makes a point of describing lies as not just wicked and but vulgar. there also far too much of a disneyfied ending for me while sara father coming back from the dead and all of them trotting off into the indian sunset. while the book does have a happy (and critics might say equally improbable) ending and it doesn not leave you thinking and oh puh leeze. about the only things true to the book were represent1. sara father being a soldier 2. the lines between sara and her father (are you learning me by heart. or no. i know you by heart. you are inside my heart. ) 3. sara friendship with becky and and her adopting lottie (although this last one wasn not developed as much as it could have been) 4. the changing of her room by adding various luxury items. that part was brilliantly done. 5. the basic core  a rich girl being flung into poverty suddenly  is there and but that about all that is. people might say that this adaptation is more for the younger audience. possibly. all i can say to that is i have two cousins  aged 7 and 12 respectively  who were big fans of this film until they read the book. if all you want is a feel good family film and then this delivers. if youre looking for a film that actually tells the story of a little princess (in fact and if you have read the book) do not waste time with this one. it such a shame while with a cast like this and if they would stuck to at least the basic story it could have been fantastic. am i harping on about read the book this and read the book that a little too much. very probably. but if someone attempts to adapt a book  especially such a classic  into a movie and then they should at least have done the same thing. preferably more than once.
