I don't think were talking about Emmy's or anything but it was a fun, exciting, adventurous movie that took you away from reality for 2 hours. Isn't that what movies are supposed to do? There were moments that reminded me of Harry Potter, Twilight and other mythical movies I had previously seen. The cast was good, focusing on Lily Collins and Jamie Campbell Bower. I had not seen Jamie Campbell Bower before and was immediately struck by how much he reminded me of a young Heath Ledger. The art and special effect were excellent. Overall, there wasn't really any new story here but the movie was fun and entertaining so...3 stars for me.
