For years, old wood carver Mr. Meacham has delighted local children with his tales of the fierce dragon that resides deep in the woods of the Pacific Northwest. To his daughter, Grace, who works as a forest ranger, these stories are little more than tall tales... until she meets Pete, a mysterious 10-year-old with no family and no home who claims to live in the woods with a giant, green dragon named Elliott. And from Pete's descriptions, Elliott seems remarkably similar to the dragon from Mr. Meacham's stories. With the help of Natalie, an 11-year-old girl whose father Jack owns the local lumber mill, Grace sets out to determine where Pete came from, where he belongs, and the truth about this dragon.

Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
It is, above all, gentle, sometimes to a fault.
– Alison Willmore,

rotten:
Pete's Dragon is one of those movies that talks a lot about magic-Robert Redford, the grandfatherly narrator whose "by and by" bookends the film, says the word at least seven times-rather than effectively presenting it on screen.

"Pete's Dragon" conjures the primordial power of fantasy itself.

Picture the exec who said that scales might be too strange, as though asking kids to dream wasn't the point

fresh:
After half an hour or so of ... stutter steps, Pete's Dragon starts working on you, much like those gold standards of the boy-and-his-otherworldly-friend genre, E.T. and The Iron Giant.
