Not what I expected, but that's not a bad thing...

Rating: 9/10 (17 July 1999)

Well, what can I say? This film was just a few marks from excellent! Certainly, there were some boring scenes, and at times I was wondering to myself, 'why did I come to see this? I could have seen the Matrix.' But when it got good, it was just brilliant! The graphics and special effects of this film were, quite literally, out of this world. I particularly liked the underwater scene, seeing all the different monsters. I loved the creativity of it all! The colours, the costumes, it was all so much fun!
Ewan McGregor, Liam Neeson, and the girl that played the Queen, their performances were all commendable. I expect it was so much fun filming, too.
