enchanting

Rating: 7/10 (23 December 2014)

An enchanting kids movie about a young orphan boy trying to connect to his fathers memory via an automaton but instead discovers French film maker George melies.
Fantastic acting from all the actors involved including Sacha baron Cohen of Ali g fame. Also good to see Frances de la tour and the late Richard Griffith in one of his last films.
The only negative is perhaps the length of the film as it does feel a little long and boring at times.
Otherwise a superb spectacle of Sci fi akin to A.i. Ben Kingsley is also noteworthy as he is in most of his films.
