Dhal's classic childrens novel finally gets the hollywood treatment in Spielberg's enchanting 2016 take on BFG. Having not read this story since a was a child, I was immediately captivated by the way some of the key moments from the story (from my 25 year old memory of reading the book the opening scenes of sophie opening her window with the long curtains) were realized in full hollywood style.

The cast is exceptional with Mark Rylance and Ruby Barnhill delivering memorable performances. I had a lot of fun watching this movie and highly recommend it if you enjoy the pure escapism of the fantasy adventure genre.
