Title: Jim Henson rolls over in his grave
Product review: This film was incredibly painful to watch. Someone needs to look up the word "pace" and read it to director Dave McKean. I was expecting a real cutting edge film here and if you are expecting the same, you will be let down. I subtracted a star for the lousy directing, one for shabby editing, one for a story line that doesn't quite know where it wants to go and one for the lack of acting ability, particularly in our 'heroine.' (her smirk really got on my nerves). I highly doubt that Jim Henson, were he alive, would've had anything to do with this horrific waste of time....I also doubt that most pre-teens will find this film engaging. It may be a bit too dark and/or over the heads of children.Was this even in the theaters for more than a couple of weeks? No?? Now THAT makes sense.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
