Spiderwick chronicles was a pleasant surprise to what I expected to be another Harry Pottereque gutterfilth movie translation of a classic book.
I was very pleasantly surprised. The movie was really quite good to watch. The ambience and feeling invoked while watching was something that I would have imagined as a child after reading an Enid Blyton book. They didn’t entirely rely on CGI to carry the movie through, but actually used it as a tool only to enhance the fantastic storyline.
I was really impressed by the whole thing, and am actually looking forward to watching upcoming franchises of the same. The Golden Compass is another one I would love to watch, Prince Caspian – if overdone in the same way as the first one, not so much.
Mo Rating – 8/10
