This is why we have movies.

Rating: 8/10 (25 July 2008)

True, as pointed out earlier, it's not Gone With the Wind, but DANG, what a great fantasy. This movie could not have been made without CGI, and I'm so glad it exists now - the movie just looks amazing. You have to wonder at all this stuff rattling around in Del Toro's head! Impossible to describe - you just really have to see it. Loved the wee Tooth Fairies! Ron Perlman delivers a solid performance, as always, and Doug Jones is a treat in multiple roles. Even the Prince was solid, and I didn't read good reviews about him. I really hope there will be a third installment. Beautiful and funny and unexpectedly touching, A summer hoot, and just great for what it aspires to be - a hero movie.
