Sean Axmaker

As a tale of hardship and pioneer pluck, the tale is pure fantasy, but as entertainment its energetic and appealing.

The famous 1813 novel by Johann Wyss has been turned into a fine adventure film under Walt Disney's supervision, although purists may resent the way the original narrative has been souped up with pirates and other innovations.

This feels like a believable family, even if the treehouse is a little over the top.
