I thought this movie was pretty good.

It is unfortunate that Roger Ebert bashes this movie. It's because of critics like him that I cant find this movie at any of my local video stores. I want to watch it again (its been a while) just to... Full review

North is one of the great movies of our time. If you haven't seen it, I strongly reccomend you seeing it. All these other reviewers have a little thing I like to call, Elijah Envy. They are jealous of him, so... Full review

I'm a little shocked this only received 4.1 stars out of 10! Last night I watched "North" for the first time and was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. Elijah Wood is irresistible as little North, a young... Full review

I watched North when I was about 10. My Mom rented it from a video store I and I watched it when I had to flu. Perhaps it was because I was sick that enjoyed this movie, or perhaps it... Full review

What can I say about NORTH? Well, to start off, let me say putting two Seinfeld members in the middle of the show could be confusing, but they pull it off. I don't like Lovitz, but the plot and general idea... Full review

Enough already. I didn't "love" this film, but it was at least modestly entertaining, and there are many MANY worse movies than North out there. Nothing personal against anyone specifically, but I think most people who rip on this do... Full review
Offbeat, to be certain, but just not funny...

Director Rob Reiner in eccentric spirits, but not quite getting the offbeat laughs and sentimental subtext he was going for. Extremely unfunny fantasy concerns unappreciated youngster who receives emancipation from his parents under the proviso he find a new set... Full review

Oh my god, the most horrible terrifying movie I ever saw... and its a comedy, i think. Picture a movie that stars Bruce Willis in a pink bunny suit, Dan Akroyd as a singing texas jackass, and Elijah Wood as an... Full review

Rob Reiner's ranks next to 1996's "Mad Dog Time" as one of the most underrated, critically bashed films of all time. I liked it a lot, enough to recommend. Thumbs up!... Full review

James Berardinelli's Reviews
as such, is not entirely devoid of worthwhile moments.....Sometimes, when the movie strikes the right chord, it is refreshingly funny, but on most occasions, it doesn't know when to move on.....while the movie doesn't turn out nearly as bad as either would lead you to believe, North is still a lackluster production.....Reiner did a wonderful job in the realm of the fantastic and absurd with The Princess Bride.... ...
