Was it kind of obvious that the twin boys were played by the same actor? Yes. Which I think made it rather interesting to see how the boys did the Lindsay Lohan parent trap thing. But that starlet aside, I would say that I give the Spiderwick Chronicles a 6/10. Comparing to Narnia, the animations and graphics are excellent. However, we should remember that this is a make from a best selling fantasy book. And the big problem with that is the issue of involving all the intricate beauty from a book, into a movie that should be at most 2 hours long. (I now call to the witness stand, Harry Potter the movies.)
So for those who have read the book, you may find that, heyyyyyy! There's only 8 species of supernatural creatures featured??? (read: rather pathetic dull)
*I would say the little flower faeries are awesome =]
And to you who have not read the book; this movie is about how a family of New Yorkers (minus their Daddy-dear) move to their great great uncle's, Arthur Spiderwick, old house. Which is filled with lots of honey, lots of tomato sauce and lots of salt. Why? Well you go watch the movie read the book to find out. It is a best seller after all...Back on track now, basically strange things happen to the family, and Jared, the "naughty" twin, is blamed for it. Guess what's REALLY causing all that? hint: it likes honey, and it there's a uniform group named after it for little girls in primary school, anddd as a food it tastes good with fudge and ice cream!
Then the supernatural creatures are discovered, and the kids go to solve it.
Warning
SPOILER:
About the ending,
I feel rather cheated- why couldn't that spitting, bird-crazy, ADD inflicted hobgolbin, Hogsqueal have eaten Mulgrath earlier?
