Lost the magic.

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.

an enjoyable surprise

Inkheart seemed a little slow in places and I think more could have been done with character development (Andy Serkis doesn't seem a convincing villain here,) but all in all this is an enjoyable film.

Brendan Fraser, Helen Mirren and Paul Bettany all make great characters (I'm still not convinced of the casting decision for Jennifer Connelly's pointless cameo appearance) and Eliza Bennett is wonderful as Fraser's daughter.

The story is very enjoyable and shouldn't be taken too seriously (this is a children's fantasy tale after all.) Special effects are great and there are some great locations for the action. Kids should love this.

Thought the film was ok, but didnt live up to my expectations , thought it would be more exciting, felt it was slow to get going.

Fantastic family, fantasy adventure. Really sparked the imagination of my children, 10 & 7.

Really good

I thought this film was actually really good.

For those who have read the book I think it could possibly be disappointing.
