Kit Kittredge: An American Girl (2008)

The Great Depression hits home for nine year old Kit Kittredge when her dad loses his business and leaves to find work. Oscar nominee Abigail Breslin stars as Kit, leading a splendid cast in the first ever "American Girl" theatrical movie. In order to keep their home, Kit and her mother must take in boarders - paying house - guests who turn out to be full of fascinating stories. When mother's lockbox containing all their money is stolen, Kit's new hobo friend Will is the prime suspect. Kit refuses to believe that Will would steal, and her efforts to sniff out the real story get her and friends into big trouble. The police say the robbery was an inside job, committed by someone they know. So if it wasn't Will, then who did it.

      This is more of a grown-up movie than a kids movie. It is about a girl named Kit Kittredge and her life in the Great Depression. It has no action or excitement. I wouldn't recommend this.

        The reason I am rating this movie a 3 is because it doesn't have much action in it. The movie it self is about a girl named kit. Kit is living in the Great Depression so her family has to take in boarders and after that things get a little crazy!

          This is a great movie that takes place in the Great Depression. Even though the movie has a strong message about girl power anyone can watch it. Most parts are funny but some parts are sad. I love this movie, and recommend it.

                    This american girl reminds me of myself. She is a very determined girl that never gives up no matter what.
