Review of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (2016) by Rebecca31 — 30 Sep 2016

I once was a Tim Burton obsessive so yes I went to see this kids movie. Although to call it a kids movie is a bit of a stretch as it's wonderfully dark so you've been warned. Most of this feels like you're in one of Tim Burton's dreams (or nightmares), add a little bit of Eva Green, some kid actors that they must have found off the street, a cameo from Judi Dench and Samuel L.

Jackson overacting his way through every single scene. There's no real heart in this film, it's got enough weirdness to keep you entertained for two hours but that's about it. Far from Burton's best but it's not his worst either.

So to sum up it can best be described as "meh, it’s alright." A lukewarm recommendation.
