Good film for young viewers

Warning: Spoilers
This is a movie that may amuse a very young elementary school age viewer.

In a film typical of this genre, a widowed mother relocates to a small town with her adolescent son.

The town is quaint and very cute, but it is allegedly under a "curse". I wish I could say that the storyline was well executed, but it wasn't. The adolescent male lead and his new found female companion did what they could with a lackluster script. They were both out-performed by the canine co-star "Sprocket" portrayed by "Pippa"who was adorable, and super cute.

Denise Richards talent was wasted on this film...The script which may still appeal to children fell flat and was just disappointing...Although the young people may yet make other films and have a chance to grow from this experience, this film will not enhance their careers. The first scenes as they are heading towards the town has the young man seeing an old wom an in black, but she disappears and is never seen again.

There were so many missed opportunities to create a more meaningful film.
