Movie Reviews of Heidi
Movie Review: I LOVED this version! Finally the real Heidi!
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved this version of Johanna Spyri's classic novel. Emma Bolger is so cute and sweet and just how I had always pictured Heidi. This story follows the book better than any I have ever seen. Sometimes it is quite sad - we cried during some scenes. But Max Von Sydow and Emma Bolger show the wonderful relationship between Grandparent and Grandchild. The acting and directing are Superb! I rarely give 5 stars but I certainly will this time.Movie Review: This Heidi Follows Johanna Spyri's Book Pretty Closely
Summary: 5 Stars
My students spent several weeks reading Heidi. We were thrilled to watch this DVD as our concluding activity. Now there are some differences -- the goats have different names, and the end comes about differently than in the book, but it is much closer than other versions. After reading the book, we enjoyed making a compare and contrast chart between the book and the movie.
This is a great movie. Enjoy!
Movie Review: Utterly delightful!!!

this is an older movie but my child just loves it. couldn't bet the price.Movie Review: Faithful version of the story
Summary: 4 Stars
My 8-year-old daughter and I just finished reading Heidi, and I wanted to find a movie version that stayed close to the original story. As many of the reviewers point out, this one is very faithful to the book, following it as closely as you can probably expect from a movie. The characters are also well cast; they are exactly as you would expect them to be - except, unfortunately, for the title character. Heidi is supposed to be spunky, lively, and charming, melting the hearts of everyone around her with her contagious joie-de-vivre. This Heidi (Emma Bolger) is quiet, pale, and serious throughout the movie. This may be appropriate for her demeanor in Frankfurt, but certainly not when she's roaming her beloved Alps. Other reviewers seem to think that Emma Bolger did a fine job as Heidi, so maybe it's just me. But I found that it detracted from an otherwise fine rendition of this classic story.
