E.B. White's classic tale gets a Babe-like makeover in Charlotte's Web, a delightful and well-made film that is sure to become a family classic. Directed by Gary Winick (13 Going on 30), the new version eschews the musical numbers of the 1973 cartoon and mixes CGI with live-action animals. Dakota Fanning brings the right amount of chutzpah to Fern, the young farm girl who rescues a runt, Wilbur, from death and visits him every day at her Uncle Homer's farm. But it's Wilbur's friendship with Charlotte the spider (voiced by Julia Roberts) that ultimately saves him from the "smoke house" (a kid-friendly alternative term to the slaughterhouse), for Charlotte's talent for weaving praiseworthy words about Wilbur into her web turns the Zuckerman farm into a tourist attraction. The more tragic elements of the book are handled sensitively by Winick, working from a script by Susannah Grant (Erin Brockovich), and Roberts' soothing, maternal voice (who knew it would work so well?) makes it all go down easy. It turns out to be just one of many perfect celebrity voice-casting choices, for the farm animals, voiced by an all-star cast including Oprah Winfrey (the goose), Robert Redford (the horse), Steve Buscemi (Templeton the rat), and John Cleese (the sheep), lend plenty of sharp humor. But it's two corn-hungry crows, voiced by Thomas Haden Church (Sideways) and OutKast's Andre "3000" Benjamin who steal the show. (Ages 4 and older) -- Ellen A. Kim Beyond Charlotte's Web

Excellent family movie! I bought Charlotte's Web new. It arrived within a few days of purchase and was in excellent shape. This is one of my favorite movies!
Charlotte's Web November 11, 2008
What's not to like about E. B. White's masterpiece, Charlotte's Web? With the special effects that we have grown to love only adds to the realistic feel good of the movie. Throw in the ever adorable Dakota Fanning, and no surprise here, instant claasic all over again!

Excellent Product delivered FAST! October 24, 2008
This was a gift for a friend's child. The DVD arrived within 4 days, in perfect condition and at an excellent price. All the kids love it, and the little ones get a big kick out of the "talking" animals. Good purchase, processed well. Amazon always does right by me with my purchases. I highly recommend!
Very cute family movie October 8, 2008
I thought this movie was very cute. Fun for all ages. I see ppl are comparing this to babe (idk why ppl always do that) I personally think this one is better than Babe or Gory also. Wonderful story about friendship and accepting something for what it is.
