Didn't Laugh / Didn't Cry

The photography was beautiful and filming location stunning. The costumes were great. The acting was good and the story line worked. With all that said, it lacked the ability to move me to either laugh or cry... which I typically do very easily. I feel the sign of a great movie or book is if it touches some emotion. I just sat there and had a visual feast but not an emotional one. The book has us using our imagination and laughing. The movie lacked depth and for a 90 minute movie, based on such a beloved book - that's just disappointing. BTW: We went with 15 people of all ages: The parents of those under 6 thought those kids were too young. The six 14 year old boys seemed to like it. The five parents we're left feeling neutral.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
