Review of Mortal Engines (2018) by Joe C — 22 Dec 2018
As a fan of the books I really enjoyed the movie. The filmmakers captured the essence of the first book very well, notwithstanding a couple of plot changes which did not hurt the story. The dystopian future world looked very much as I had envisioned it while reading the book and the moving city of London was quite amazing.
The only thing I found disappointing was Hester's appearance. I had envisioned her scar as being much more of a disfigurement. Otherwise I recommend it to fans of post-apocalyptic storytelling, especially if you've Philip Reeve's series.
