Just the latest quasi-magic-realist, two-birds-with-one-stone shrine to non-traditional families and the power of myth

A whimsical family film about longing and belonging told with gentle humanity.

Relentlessly cute and adorable, it at least has a slight sour edge that gives us above-8s something to cling to. Briefly.

Thoughtful, personal drama, complex and with much to say.

Because of Winn-Dixie does no harm, and it should appeal to younger children while charming more than a few adults.

A sweet film, laced with magic realism, and it tackles some rather dark themes in a way that is perfectly appropriate for young children.

Sincere rather than cynical.

Fans of DiCamillo's book should be pleased with how Wang has faithfully preserved the novel's clear-eyed depiction of both pain and joy.
