Annoying...Boring...Don't Waste Your Money! June 18, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
The movies okay I guess...not one of the best. At first the water horse is cute but then it grows bigger and ugly. And sometimes I can't even understand what they're saying...because they're in another country or something and because of that I can't understand it very much. It's boring even if you know what's happening. Spend your time on another movie
Boring boring movie June 17, 2008 3 out of 10 found this review helpful
This was an incredibly boring movie. Good for kids, thats about it.
Some really bad points:
It was sooooo predictable. Examples are: The rock would be Crusoe, the water horse. The army man would be a nuisance the whole movie until the end when he saw the water horse. The handyman and the woman would fall for each other. The old man in the beginning telling the story is actually the boy that found crusoe. Crusoe would escape to the sea. These are just the main things, everything in the entire movie you knew would happen minutes before it did. Thats just poor story telling.
Typical characters and characteristics. The only interesting character was the handyman because he attempted humor (and failed miserably) and he had some history to him, which, of course, they didn't develop.
So the story and the characters were horrible, can it be any worse?
Some good points:
Cast was good, they did a descent job. They sounded realistic so thats good enough for me. The music was good, I love scotish music. And I liked the accents, love scotish accents.
If you like the typical family movie with a cutsie story then this is the movie for you. If you do not want something that you can watch for ten minutes and know the whole story, then don't get this. Simple as that.
Good family movie June 15, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Good family blue ray DVD, based on legend of the Loch Ness Monster. Themes of loss, trust. Funny but no belly laughs. English with Schottish accents, so english subtitles helped our American audience.
a legend becomes real June 15, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Well done children's story with enough depth for adults. The fanciful beginning for the legend of Loch Ness. Very suitable for even young children.
