Of course, the movie is that great not only because of visuals and touching plot but because we have Adam Sandler here. He is amazing, so funny and completely believable. This is a funny and natural movie with a good heart. Sandler is a loser with a heart of gold and during the movie he finds his real love. The direction is light and fun, so the movie is highly entertaining. The movie is packed with romance, friendship, fulfillment of promises and a happy end, of course. Sandler turns to be a real hero.

I love the kids here – their played their roles in the best way possible. The movie is rather long but not boring at all, since it is very fast paced, quick and engaging. There are a couple of generations in the movie and all of them are centered around one hotel, that changes their loves and opens new horizons.

The most interesting part is a big-eyed guinea pig – it is such a cute animal to enjoy! Love the movie!

This time the whole story is focused on Lucian and it is really amazing because the character is deep, good and very interesting. To my mind, Michael Sheen’s acting was not flawless and sometimes even a bit mediocre. I like Rhona Mitra – she both looked and acted great. This story is more about real and nice feelings, it is very emotional and even a bit tragic. One more point I would like to mention: the storyline was very faithful to the material.

Overall, the movie is not bad and I really enjoyed it but I still would like to name you my pros and cons:

Advantages:

• the storyline is amazing. It is not only catching but true and appropriate;
• acting is more than convincing and true. It is even emotional is some way;
• the special effects are mind-blowing and very realistic;
• the movie looks like a classic one;
• the tone of the movie really rocks.

Let’s call it a day with positive elements and turn our attention to negative.

Disadvantages:

• some sceneries are not good at all, for example, the castle looks too small and even awkward;
• the war looked more as a single short fighting;
• I was expecting costumes to be more festive and lavish.

To put it short, I really enjoyed the movie, and it is definitely worth the money and time.

The two of children – Tia and Tony perfectly understand that they are not like the rest of their friebds, they are special. The children have fantastic psychic capabilities and one day they save Lucas Deranian from a car accident and everything begins … He was impressed with the amazing psychic abilities of the children and he took them to his Boss. But the children start their own investigation and begin their journey to Witch Mountain where the answer is.

I don’t know why this movie got a lot of really negative reviews, I think it is a highly entertaining and touching family movie with lots of amazing jokes and pleasant moments. The film reminded me of some old good times at the theaters. I didn’t want to pay your special attention to some obvious cons of the movie (the movie is too dark for children, some scenes are really too non-professional to be true, there is no chemistry between Gugino and Dwayne …)  because the movie provoked the best in me and I was very glad to enjoy it.

I would like to give you a recommendation – don’t take this movie as critics and there is no use to start looking for drawbacks, relax and let yourself enjoy the funny, beautifully crafted adventure movie with some elements of  mysticism! Believe me, the film is far better than you expect!

What can be better during Christmas holidays than a touching family movie offering top notch animation? For example, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. The following movie was directed by Andrew Adamson (“Shrek”) and it can be literally named one of the best fantasy films of all time.

Frankly speaking I worried a bit since the movie is based on the worst books in the series (sorry for hurting your feelings, tastes differ). They could have chosen a better book, but … what’s done can’t be undone. But the movie was really charming, kids, the Lion and the Witch – everything is great, visual effects are beyond any disputes, magnificent. 

It is exactly the movie to enjoy during long and cold Christmas evenings! Merry Christmas, dears!
