Review of The Spiderwick Chronicles (2008) by Mitchellk. — 18 Feb 2008
Another kid audience based fantasy flick with all the fantastical creatures that was actually too scary for the kid audience for which it was intended . This one gets way too violent for 8 year olds. Too many scary images.
The typical story of a broken family that tries to make it in a new place and things get magically undelicious. It's just been already done so many ways so many times . The possible monetary payoff is too enticing for filmmakers to resist.
Don't bother seeing it. You already have about a half dozen times.
