 Young Foster makes this movie awesome May 6, 2008
Tyler T. Kutz (Gilbert, Arizona)
I'm not a big fan of old live action Disney movie (or new ones for that matter) but this one is a keeper. My younger siblings were watching it for the first time and I had nothing better to do so I did too. I'm glad I did.
Jodie Foster is absolutely FANTASTIC as Casey, a cynical (albeit young), orphan with a lot of street smarts. David Niven provides genuine humor with his numerous roles. I'm not going to say what happens, because if you have already seen it you already know, and if you haven't, you should. Suffice it to say that despite a possibly lame fight scene at the end, this movie definitely deserves five stars.

I am so gald I could get this on Amazon as it's not available to buy anywhere in Australia. I used to watch this when I was a kid and I still enjoy it. The story is cute and simple and it's great family entertainment. Thanks.

Disney Classic! March 24, 2007

CANDLESHOE is one of those great classic Disney movies that the whole family can watch. It has mystery, suspense, and a heart-warming ending that ends in happily ever after...
Watching this, reminds me of the "Wonderful World of Disney" and "Disney's Wonderful World" tv specials that used to air on the weekends during the 70s.
And Jody Foster is great portraying the tough, street-wise tomboy Casey.
Unfortuately there are no special features on this dvd, unlike the FREAKY FRIDAY dvd that featured an interview with Foster.
But it's presented in widescreen format and looks clean and sharp, although there are a couple of dust and scratches that show up on certain frames. Still, the movie is just as enjoyable to watch now as it was then, whether you have kids or not.
