The Indian in the Cupboard (VHS, 2000, Clam Shell Case; Closed Captioned)

This is a great adventure for any childs imagination! The story line and lesson taught is conveyed for a child to grasp clearly. Highly recommended for any age group! I bought for my 5 year old, but found our whole family myself included and 2 year old grandson, 25, 20, 19 & 17 year olds all were captivated by this adventure. My little girl now wants a magic cupboard!

My children loved this movie when they seen it at a friend's house, so we just had to buy it! It is full of imagination and magic. I would reccomend this to anyone with kids.

I bought the Indian in the Cupboard movie
for a spend the night party for my grandchildren.
It was a movie that they had never seen.
The kids loved it! The movie was a good
one for ages 5 - 7. It was a great story and
full of imagination. The movie did keep them
watching and interested.

I bought this for my 4 year old grandson, after viewing it previously from a relative's collection. The story incorporates imagination, multi-cultural aspects, sensitivity, empathy, and other desirable elements looked for in a story for the younger generation.

The story bridges not only a time gap, but a cultural gap as well, but on a level that even a youngster can at least partially understand. Bias and prejudice is also introduced and dealt with, with a very desirable outcome. The story line is fairly easy to follow, with good actors and language that would be acceptable for almost any age level. There are a couple of minor swear words that could have been omitted and not bothered the theme of the tale, so one might want to take this into consideration when deciding who to let watch this video. I've heard worse on network news, but that is rationalization, and doesn't excuse the fact that for a film aimed primarily at a young audience it wasn't necessary. There is also a very minor amount of violence, if it can be qualified as such, incorporated into the story, but it is almost necessary to get to the desirable conclusions reached via the story line.

All in all, the video is probably worth a look, but I would advise viewing it prior to letting a youngster view it for the first time, and decide for yourself how much the undesirable elements will influence that child, given his or her background and maturity level. The mute button is also handy if you are overly-concerned.

I needed this movie for an X-mas gift and couldn't find it. I found it here and it was really fast shipping!

Great for all ages. Wonderful seller. Received in 2 days! I recommend highly! One of my all time favorite movies. Great price and excellent condition.

Very close to book. Expressively written and a delightful story about friendships/ taking responsibilty and ownership
