*** - One thing that no one can take away from this ludicrously overhyped movie is the fact that it is visually stunning. Unfortunately, that is about all it has going for it. The story is predictable, derivative and clearly aimed at dullards and kids. The acting (especially the guy in the lead role who tries to sound like a New Englander) is mostly awful and the characters are silly stereotypes. It’s still pretty fun to watch, though. Be that as it may, I’m flabbergasted that this got a standing ovation at the theatre I saw it in.
