    • Goofs
      During Holly's first mission, she is sent to Martina Franca, near Taranto, Italy. The town seen in the movie is clearly San Gimignano, Tuscany, and it bears no resemblance at all with Martina Franca. Moreover, the place pointed to in the map is near Isernia, quite far form Martina Franca.

      Commander Root: Our world has never been in more danger. Human greed is what drove us underground all those years ago, to escape from your rapacious appetite. I warn you, boy, you are not prepared for the truth behind what you seek. Now you will believe, Artemis Fowl.

    A mess of a big budget adaptation.
    Artemis Fowl (1.5 out of 5 stars).

    Artemis Fowl is a pretty horrible fantasy adventure film that is based on a novel of series. Sure, it is the beginning and the end of a movie series. For a movie with a big budget, it is surely wasted and not sure where it went. The script is terrible and wasted with so much going with the story crammed in such a short running time. The plot is a mess. And the whole setting of the movie takes place with the fairies army invading Artemis house by the beach. The movies narrative structure by Josh Gad was just plain stupid. And annoying. The performances are tedious and bad. There was no emotional connections with the characters. The villain is undeveloped. And no explanation to the bad guys motive. The action sequences are boring. The visual effects seemed incomplete and cheesy. The direction by Kenneth Branagh is a complete wreck with this film. From the director that did Thor and Murder on Orient Express. This movie sure fails to entertain. I do wonder how would this film even be in theatres cause it definitely felt like a straight to TV movie with its quality. I do recommend to save your time and skip this film.
