Review of The Spiderwick Chronicles (2008) by Dawdlingpoet — 26 Nov 2021
This is a reasonably entertaining, mostly family friendly film (apart from the ocassional glance/hint at claw mark type injuries and one or two monster depictions which may scare younger kids) with some pretty decent CGI.
I liked some of the plot details, like the fact that the mother eventually sees the creatures, so its not entirely a case of dismissing the kids concerns over an assumed made up entity/entities. This isn't exactly a brilliant film but its a pretty good one which will likely entertain slightly older kids and so I'd recommend it on that basis.
