A definite entertaining movie if you are 12 , and a over use of CGI , the movies cast makes the movie, however the movie does lag quite a few times and lacks any real thrills or chills. Maybe my expectations were set on high, but I came away disappointed. the 2003 Eddie Murphy version was much more enjoyable in my opinion and my daughter agreed she preferred the 2003 version much more. The remake is still worth seeing, just keep your expectations low
