This movie is very unlike the book. It is not nearly as funny or as heartfelt as the book and also lacks many major events. The events it does include also are changed for no clear purpose. Elijah Wood is cute, but he is also a great deal younger than the real Huck Finn was supposed to be. I would not reccomend it to either teachers or students who are looking for a version that follows the book.
October 5, 2007I've just saw this movie for the first time a few weeks ago. I work in a treatment center for sex offenders ages 10-18, and I work with the 10-14 year olds. A lot of them have terrible difficulty in school, with very low reading levels, and some struggle with lower IQ's. Well the boys read Huck Finn with their teacher, and then watched this movie. You could see the story come alive to them, and see some new connections made. I'm glad this movie is out there and making a diffrence in some many people's lives!
August 4, 2007Our boys ask for this on Saturday afternoons almost every weekend! Just a great story retelling and with Elijah Wood, can't go wrong! Not much that even little folks have to 'turn away' from.

Twain's masterpiece could not be better portrayed than by young Elijah Wood and Courtney Vance. The portrayals of Huck and Jim are now the standard others will have to follow - and it will be a hard act to follow indeed. Mark Twain fans will be very pleased with this adaptation of the Twain classic novel.

I used this as part of a literature unit with my students and it followed the book very closely but not so closely that we couldn't make some interesting comparisons.
