So, I read a bunch of meh reviews, the sort that always end with them giving the movie a “B”, and I was kind of thinking it would be uneven and not very good. But it is very good! I mean, it’s no Lord of the Rings, but it’s probably the best fantasy movie of the recent resurgence that’s not directed by Peter Jackson, which is decidedly not nothing. Better than any damn Potter or Narnia movie.
