5.0 out of 5 stars Third-Grade Teacher Thinks Movie is Great for Kids!, October 24, 2004

By	Imperial Topaz (Marrakesh, Morocco) - See all my reviews

I'm a third-grade teacher, and I regularly watch different movies with my third-grade kids. I watched this movie at home on TV and thought it was great. I found myself glued to the screen!

This movie is NOT just about a kid who has no friends and spends a million dollars. It is really about learning to appreciate REAL friends, and that people who like you for your money aren't real friends at all. In addition, the movie is a kids' wish-fullfillment fantasy, as a kid manages to spend a million dollars in six days. He learns some important lessons about life, while managing to escape the consequences of his actions through lucky happenstance.

I thought it was a fun movie, and I loved it myself! The movie was great for eight-year-olds, and I know my eleven-year-old daughter would have loved it, too, if she had had the chance to watch it with me.

5.0 out of 5 stars A awesome video!, October 9, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Blank Check (Slip) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I'm a kid! I don't know what those adults don't like! I think it was a great movie! I should be the one who you listen to, a kid knows other kids feelings, and my brother and I liked the movie so much, we saw it 5 times! it's about a kid who's bike gets run-over by a man who is running from the police! He gives the kid a signed check, and is about to fill in the money when a cop pulls up, he forget's to put the money amount in and drives off. The kid fills it in for $1,000,000! I REALLY recommened this video!
