I read the book of this when it was released and enjoyed it somewhat but wasn't blown away by it.

The film was worse...it's a typical case of..your own imagination is better than what they can bring to screen...

There just seemed to be less magic than I remembered..and I thought the villain (Capricorn) was crap.

Anyway...this film will probably be better if you haven't read the book. If you have read the book? You might be disspointed.

About the reviewer: Ouch

Erm..I'm pretty much happy go lucky....I really should be more responsible but most of the time I think..what the heck..and just do whatever takes my fancy. I'm living in London with 3 other people, we're just a pair of nutters really tearing around all the clubs and biting people and getting stuff off them to add to our "crazy wall"...I love to travel...been to quite a few countries already. I'm a bit of an obsessive with things, like..collections and stuff that's just all part of my Gemini personality. When it comes to films...Oh gosh...there are loads tht I like, but the few that stick out are...Gothika, Little shop of Horrors, Vanilla Sky, Minority Report,The Craft, Jason's Lyric blah blah blah...My favourite type of film is Either a really scary Psychological thriller or a good old Disney when all the world gets on top of ya! (as it ften does in this mad city) What else ya wanna know? just ask I suppose and I'll tell ya, I'm not very shy and a tiny bit crazy but other than that?....I'm just me. Hi! *waves at you* Oh yeah...and I'm gay and totally happy with that!!
