    Very odd movie, I'm still not sure if it's for kids or not once you get past the large muppets to the underlying theme. I don't recall the book being that dark.

    This movie was terrible and rather boring, I ended up only watching it to see if it ever picked up. The plot was too subtle for a kids movie and the plot too generic and boring for adults. You never idetified to the characters. Skip it.

    Found it a bit disappointing concidering the people involved in it. Glad I did not spend the big bucks to see this on the Big Screen. The costumes were a bit primitive with todays special effects, the acting was not what I have come to expect from kids movies, and quite frankly my kids even said that this was moving Way too slow.

    Yes   |   No
