that about it imagine run away from home and living in a tree house and have great adventure . this film be fantastic fun . it may not be highbrow art and but it be a fun film for the kid . the other guy who comment on this film be obviously look for something more adult and intelligent . i find that this film be well mean and have good moral standing . it be a film to take you on a journey and allow you to see thing that you otherwise would not . a good exploration of posh kid meet with street kid and alien experience like live alone and be self sufficient . very entertain for a young mind hungry for stimulation . it be about friendship and trust and independence and come of age . fight your own battle and find yourself . i really like this film when i saw it the first time in the 80 on television . i think i would enjoy it again and although i doubt i would watch it unless i chance upon on television one night . i would consider watch it if i have kid and i would like them to see it .
