No, I never actually read the books as a kid, but heard of it. As for as the alleged food allergies deal, little spoiler, the rabbits started talking about it in one scene where Peter even stated that he hoped they didn't get letters from the audience. Yes, 4th wall breaking in the movie, but considering that it wasn't bad as they make it sound, Mrs. Doubtfire with Robin Williams character goes into the Kitchen and purposely spiced the guys food and helped him after that. But no one said anything about his character trying to commit murder via Food Allergies and made more light of it since the character Stu didn't even use a epipen....and on top of that, that would had been two felonies, one tampering with food and one for attempted murder and NO BITCHING FROM THE CRITICS BACK THEN. So I don't care, it's slap stick stick comedy, and yes, I laughed plenty of times in the movie.

While Peter Rabbit does have a twist from the original content, it's certainly a family adventure, full of fun characters & great visual effects, while still sticking to some of it's roots.

My whole family really enjoyed Peter Rabbit. We loved the music- the parodies alone were worth the price of admission! We loved the acting and voice acting! James Corden was so great as Peter Rabbit. And we loved the laughter most of all! A fun comedy! Check out blogs and reviews to figure out if it is right for your kids. There was definitely some rude/bathroom humor- but it was not too heavy. A lot of the adult humor was very tactfully hidden. You do not need to take kids with you to laugh in this movie! It's a cute, comedy adventure! Good for the whole family!
