A pointless rehash here with no discernible points at all
most of the money went on the stars and CGI. About £500 went on the script. This was a cold and miserable attempt to cash in. Burtons direction is shockingly awful...he must have been thinking about the amount of money he was getting and took his eye off the ball.
Devito just about made it but Farrell and Keaton were hopeless. Shame that because so many good movies have these two in it.The 2 kids were just horrible.
Only good point was Alan Arkin...who must be laughing himself silly .
In the 40's and 50's kids were naive and enjoyed the story. In 2017 kids are far more sophisticated and have the internet to look at...so this will mean nothing to them.
The money spent on this rubbish could have made many smaller but independent good stuff!
The movie business is in a bad place at the moment and needs new ideas.
