Film review - Jack the giant slayer

Hello all,

Last week I met up with a few friends, we had intended to see the new GI Joe film, however the showing times at our local theatre were rubbish, either too early or too late, as by the time it started I was still stuck in traffic from leaving work... Therefore we grabbed some food and chose a different film. We all decided on "Jack the Giant slayer" the remake of the classic story Jack and the Bean Stalk, with many British stars including Ewan McGregor and Nicholas Hoult (yep the guy who was the kid in about a boy, love that film). Jack, a young farmhand, open the gate way between the world of giants and the human race restarting the ancient war between. He ends up stuck in the middle of it all, but also fighting to save the captured princess. It's another twist on a classic fairy tale, bringing you into a fantasy world. Some of the cgi was a bit Questionable but passable. A predictable story line of a guy saving the girl, but still a lovely tale, with plenty of fighting, an easy watching film.
There seems to be plenty of fairy tales being brought to the big screen, this was enjoyable once it got going, with a very interesting ending bringing it to the present!! (Don't want to ruin it, but love it!)
Therefore it you want an easy watching film, with a story line that you can follow, pick this film!

Hope you enjoy,

Love Lolly
xoxo
