Film Reviews by CG

No one wants to see a baby racoon tortured or sweet animals mutilated beyond recognition.  How can the director and writers lose their way to such a degree?  There isn't the fun, warmth or music or even good sets of GOTG 1.  I turned off half way through. 

Emma Thompson is great. That’s where the positive ends, oh actually I could add Stephen Graham to the positives. Other than that, every song sounds the same and the main actress’s voice really grates. There is no colour or gear changes in this dreadful adaptation of a fabulous book. 

The direction of this was dull, dull, dull and it felt like a directorial vanity project. It went nowhere and it’s two hours of my life I’ll never get back. 

I expected the Steve Carroll Faction version, but this took me by surprise. It was very engaging and a fascination insight into a time that I hope has passed forever, or is beginning to do so.
