Critics want to dismiss this movie but I thought that the concept was really cool and the acting was great. The character dynamics and action of the movie really keeps your interest. I could tell that there was more to the plot that was probably addressed in the books and they definitely set it up for there to be a sequel. Some people were mad that they made the characters older but I thought that it made the movie more believable. I don’t think two 13 year olds would realistically be able to complete the action scenes and other physical feats completed by the main characters. I hope that they make a sequel to this so that we can delve deeper into the fantasy and character back stories.
