Absolutely Fantastic
Absolutely brilliant
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
I read the 3 books and when I heard Tim Burton was making a movie I was so excited. I went to the cinema right away... and when I got out, it was the biggest disappointment of my life, the money I spend ... i could've bought 1 great book with it instead.+ The acting was great, the actors were good looking, the effect were fantastic.The story tho? I was so confused (even I read the books)... There was no logic in this, and the ending was BOTCHED, actually the whole movie was.They sh1tted on the original story. So sad.I am really being generous here, giving a 4/10.
This film is for teenagers and older. The director is Tim Burton and this is my favorite director. This film based on book written by Jane Goldman. Stars are Asa Butterfield, Eva Green, Chris O'Down, Allison Jonney, Rupert Everett, Terence Stamp, Ella Purnell, Judi Dench, Fin MacMillan and Samuel L. Jackson. Film is about boy, whose grandfather was killed by monsters. And after his death he went to another town for researches an old house of grandfather's friends who was killed by bomb in 1943. But Jake when he went to this house, he found himself at September 3, 1943 Positive things on this film are that, it's very interesting to see a lot of effects and unexpected monuments for me, this film has not got negative things. In general, I'd recommend this film. It's very interesting. And one of my favorites.
Tim Burton is certainly peculiar enough. Based on a book, it that defies all laws of physics. This is a very adventurous story for all ages. A sort of x-kids in groundhog day loop controlled by a bird-lady. It is very good at all levels and fun. It has some depth. Great lessons. It's a sophisticated monster movie as well. I did not see the time pass.
Watched this with one of my granddaughters and rather enjoyed it. I have never been particularly drawn to the world of Tim Burton but have to confess that here he displays a considerable hold over a seemingly disparate cast whilst always ensuring that the picture looked good. The beginning was intriguing, mysterious and involving. It was also well paced and we seemed to race into picture that I had feared I might sleep through. No fear of that, even if it does lapse a little in the middle, we are soon up and running for a resounding finale. My main trouble was when the film decided to take the absurd plot, time loops and all, seriously. Here I found myself glazing over and wondering if the young lady with me was following it. No worries it really doesn't seem to matter whether you believe or not, the characters are appealing, what they do amusing and it all makes for a truly exciting conclusion.
