Jean, I found this a big, great looking entertaining adventure
movie. In addition to it's attractive young leads, it has Ewan McGregor, Bill
Night, Stanley Tucci and Iam McShane. There are the famous beans and the
beanstalk that is impressively depicted reminding one of a tree in Avatar, but
this one is much more action prone. Just when you come to a "no way out of
this moment" they come up with a very clever solution more than once. And
the giants have a gritty human look and are also quite impressive with their
own personalities exhibiting human failings down to burping, etc. The
final big battle scenes which are mandatory is brought off quite
impressively. It kind of reminded one of the battle scenes in
"Kingdom of Heaven" but much more intimate with different, clever
weapons.
