This is a truly awful movie. Where to start! The standard of acting, the costumes, the effects, the script. But the biggest criticism is that so much has been ripped off from the Harry Potter movies. Not ten minutes into the movie and a 90% identical facsimile of Dobby appears. It went downhill from there. It is a pity because the story idea was good and in more competent hands it might have been a good solid family movie. Some movies are so bad that they become much-loved icons of "bad". This is not one of them. I'm away now to perform the Obliviate spell on myself to forget I ever wasted time watching this dross.
