Without giving too much away, this movie is about books that come to life.
A great fantasy adventure. Lots of fun, adventure, and
special effects. See it on the big screen if you can.
Suitable for the family yet not a kids movie. No bad language and little violence, yet it will keep you hooked the whole way.
This is based on the first book of a set of three. Some parts are changed, but it still works very well. If you like the movie, read the books, I couldn’t put them down.
This is also a great movie for showing how exciting reading can be.
