Ignore the fact that this was a huge flop at the cinema because it's actually a really good action adventure film. True it won't change your life but it does exactly what it says on the tin, expect big explosions, epic fight scenes and light humour. Worth a watch

A good version based on the book. Very well made. The only reason Disney lost money by the end of cinema run, was down to spending the same amount as film budget on advertising. Although, little advertising was seen, so it must have been all those lunches. Still, a very good film.

A great movie for all ages fun with lots of actions scenes. Most definatly a pizza night in movie. If you like science fiction specially if you are a big fan of the star wars movies then you will love this one!
