    Don't let the cover fool you, or even the source material, this is far from being the usual family friendly flick. It' s far more rewarding from what most people would think. Once you see pass some of the cheesy effects and the slow parts you'll find that the film has more brains...( read more), guts and creativity than all those by-the-numbers-kiddy-friendly fantasy flicks that hollywood is crapping these days.
