Such a heartwarming film, the love between the boy and the dragon is magical... the films sound track is moving... all around brill picture XD

This was a good movie! I enjoyed it, despite an interesting choice to make Elliot a fuzzy (?) dragon. Bryce Dallas Howard gave such a stellar performance I thought she was Jessica Chastain, (high praise) until someone pointed out she was Ron Howard's daughter. Some of you will recognize Karl Urban as Star Trek's Bones (McCoy), and, I don't care how old Robert Redford gets, he's just plain sexy. I give this movie a 7 (good) out of 10.

Very unlike the original, and I personally didn't overly enjoy it. A bit lacklustre and not much going on.

I'm all in for these type of Disney movies but this was not one of the best. A bit bland and boring but nevertheless one family movie to enjoy. The ending was good.

Pete's Dragon is a touching and sentimental family film everyone can enjoy. It has it's slow points but I was mostly moved by the film throughout with tears constantly running down my face lol.
With a mostly lackluster summer, Pete's Dragon was a real surprise. The performances were pretty solid and you can't help but love this take on Elliot. Despite being big and green, he is a lot like Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon personality wise. But is just as likeable.
The film deserves higher than 65% good reviews here. Some people rating, probably didn't even see the movie. While still blaming Disney why Suicide Squad was rated bad lol.

Im a dad, and watched this with my kids...I thought it was great, heartfelt and very fun to watch and well cast too...a darker version for adults could be epic

Wholesome viewing.

'Pete’s Dragon' is a pleasant film. This remake brings a lot of feels thanks to its hearty narrative. The special effects are nice, as is the score - particularly towards the end. The cast isn't all-star but they all do good jobs.

Oakes Fegley gives a sweet performance as Pete, though it's Bryce Dallas Howard who is probably the film's standout. I also enjoyed Robert Redford's role (Meacham) in this, though it would've been nice to have seen him utilised more - the same could be said for all bar Pete, in truth.

There are some neat scenes in this, even if it is a film that does feel like it takes different elements from different films in parts - e.g. 'The Jungle Book' and 'E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial'. A few of the characters aren't written to perfection, but not to the degree of it becoming an irritation.

Touching. Worth a watch, for sure.

This was a beautiful, emotion-filled movie - I absolutely loved it! I felt very emotionally involved in the story, strongly feeling both the love and hate that the characters felt, further enhancing my viewing experience. The story was a lovely, heartwarming tale of a boy who can be friends with the most incredible of creatures, aka every child's dream. What more can I say, I thought this was awesome.

Also, the CGI has held up very very well.

I loved this film. It's probably an advantage for me that I've not seen the original, and so I had nothing to compare it to, and therefore would never be disappointed. After watching this, I saw the trailer for the original, and was quite surprised by how different it was. I can imagine many people being disappointed, as I was with the new "Jungle Book".
However unlike the new "Jungle Book" this is still a heartwarming film, and so if you keep an open mind, I think most would enjoy it.

It was actually quite charming. A lot more fresh and fun than I was expecting, I wonder why it didn't get more exposure, the kids should love it.

An excellent, family-friendly underseen gem of 2016. A movie with heart and a great soundtrack.
