Solid and entertaining if not spectacular.

Rating: 9/10 (25 December 2008)

Many other reviewers have pointed out the obvious flaws of this movie (the lack of character development, and story line) but I think if you just sit back and watch this movie for what it is you will be surprised. I have come to like this movie very much, and worthy of watching more than once. The scenery throughout much of the movie is beautiful, and the acting is well done by the actors with what they were giving. The main characters are all likable, and there is nothing overly objectionable to this movie. It's a simply made movie, with very good special effects. I would even go and say it may be a decent family movie for the older children (13 and up). So I would say definitely give this movie a chance and maybe a 2nd look too. I found that I enjoyed it far more the 2nd and 3rd time around.
