I thought that this film would have been disappointing and a crap children's film but I was wrong. It's really good and do you want to hear the best part?...Ricky Gervais dies in it!
I couldn't have been happier, when I saw his smug face I thought that this film has really gone downhill and then, suddenly, he was stabbed! Praise Jesus!
Anyway, on with the review! The film is about a small town called Wall that is next to a wall *cough*. Behind the wall is a magical place called Stormhold which no one is allowed to enter. One night, a young man enters it and falls for a woman who lives there. Nine months later, a baby is brought to his door. The baby grows up knowing nothing about his mother or the wall until he sees a falling star. He tells Sienna Miller that he'll fetch the star for her to show her his love. The star fell because the king of Stormhold has died and he sent some jewel off so that whichever one of his sons find it, they can be king. Once there, he finds out that the star is a woman and she fell with the jewel. Now he must take her back to Wall to Sienna Miller before a witch tries to eat her heart and the princes try to take the jewel.
The effects in it are pretty good and the acting is great. Robert De Niro is one of my favourite actors and I'm glad that he's in this film. He plays Captain Shakespeare, the captain of a thunder-catching ship who is a little confused about his sexuality.
All in all, it's a good film. Except for the ending credits song. And Ricky Gervais. But he dies so it doesn't matter.
