Inside, he finds a locked wooden box engraved with the words: THE MEANING OF LIFE: FOR JEREMY FINK TO OPEN ON HIS 13TH BIRTHDAY. Upon opening it, Jeremy discovers that the package is actually meant for him. I have to admit, it really had come up very smoothly, not ripping or taking any of the cardboard with it.

I jump from the chair to see that she has peeled away a few inches of the tape from the side of the box facing her. In a rush she blurts, 'It's not my fault! The end of the tape just lifted right up!' Gravely, I ask, 'Lizzy, did you do something?' I expect her to continue the argument, but instead she just stands by the box, looking a bit too innocent. 'We will wait until my mom gets home,' I say firmly. 'If you're afraid of that federal offense thing,' Lizzy says, 'that's only if it's a stranger's mail. After convincing the mailman to allow them to sign for the registered package, Jeremy and his best friend, Lizzy, consider opening it: I received this from Childs Play Communications in conjunction with Phase4Films release of the movie.A month before his thirteenth birthday, an unexpected box arrives in the mail addressed to Jeremy Fink's mother (who NEVER gets packages in the mail). I did receive a copy of Jeremy Fink and the Meaning of Life to view with Sammie, allowing me to give an honest review of the movie. PS: Come back tomorrow as I will be having a giveaway of the book & the movie! (*US Residents only)ĭisclosure: This is not a paid review. What is your favorite treat to have when watching DVD or digital download movies at home? Do you remember reading Jeremy Fink and the Meaning of Life?

Based on the beloved book by Wendy Mass.

Some of the scenes will remind you of how awkward it can be to go through that time of life. If you have a preteen I think they would enjoy the story, especially if they have read the book which would give them some insights also to the story line, but if they haven’t read it the story is easy to follow through their trials & escapades that bring them to the answers. The DVD is loaded with special features, including cast interviews, deleted scenes, bloopers, a limited edition o-card with glitter spotting, and a downloadable audio reading by the author Wendy Mass of the book’s first chapter. We enjoyed watching this DVD after school one day, popcorn in hand. I think this is probably why it received a PG rating along with some touching, but not deep “life topics.” Sammie also enjoyed the science museum scene, along with the rides around town as some of her favorite scenes & as I mentioned the ending which we can’t share.The movie is not fast paced, no huge action scenes, tricks to catch your attention…but the story flows nicely along with humor both fitting for the young & adults.
