I have a 7 y/o and 4 y/o. Since I'm 100% against foul language and rebellion, neither movie would be suitable. HOWEVER, to bring it down to a child's level, I would choose Little Mermaid since, as I said, it would be more to their level of understanding and not spew the foul language. They already hear enough of that outside the home as it is...
Someone mentioned Harry Potter. Both of my children love watchinig those, and my oldest has a full understanding of the moral of the story; the youngest loves watching it for all the action.
If we ever have any question about a movie prior to its release or before we take my girls to watch it, we generally pull up http://www.christiananswers.net/spotlight/ or http://www.pluggedin.com/; The first one is generally more detailed than the second and have found it to be very useful...
I was not interested in the Harry Potter movies until my son told me that they were similar to Lord of the Rings. So, we have started watching the series, will be on the third one next. The story lines are kind of predictable, but they are fun to watch. They have to watched as fantasy and not taken too seriously. The special effects and the creativity is awesome.

Having seen the first 4 movies years ago (and then stopping), we picked up the 8 movie Blue Ray box set and plan on watching all 8 one of these weekends -or more likely, over several weekends.
And I wouldn't say they are anything like Lord Of the Rings.

They have some similarity, in the mythism and drama, I really liked the Rings, my opinion of the HP's is still incomplete.

Huh? 100% against rebellion? I guess you're not a patriotic American, then.

Good one, sir Timmy, good one...
If my kids we older, like 10, I'd probably be a little more willing to let them watch GWH; obviously, they'd be older and more mature, and probably understand the plot much better...
I think the only foul language (if that's even what one would call it) in Harry Potter is "bloody hell." Until my kids use it, or they ask what it means, "bloody hell" won't bother me in the least compared to other, more common words and phrases...

You may know my understanding of "hell", so you know I'm not scared!!! LOL
