I found this to be a very boring movie. I've heard it been marketed as this generation's E.T., the return of Spielberg's magic, but for me that magic got lost in between fart jokes and cartoonish giant CGI bullies. The only admirable aspect of this movie is the beauty of some scenes (specially the one on the Tree of Dreams) which combined with the score made up some great cinematic moments.

If you are a big fan of the book or just want to watch everything Spielberg related go on and watch it, you might like it. It seems also very effective for kids, the ones on my theatre loved it. But as for me, this movie did nothing.
