big budget CGI in a bargin basement 'straight to video' story.

Rating: 5/10 (7 March 2019)

I wish I had seen this in 3D, but even in 2D it was a visual feast and delight.
A VERY weak story and characters, especially poor antagonists made this far less than it's potential.
The quests & challenges were pathetic, especially after how cool friends and family had said the book was.
I was disappointed with characters story arcs, development, there were few twists, surprises or depth. There was absolutely nothing clever about the story at all?
My description in a nutshell- big budget CGI in a bargain basement 'straight to video' story... Spielberg is 10-15 years past being slightly relevant.
After reading this review, it makes me think- "Actually, it was MORE of a 5 out 10 than the 7 I gave it at the cinema?"
