A.J. G 6d More faithful to the book than the 2018 version, but the special effects are TERRIBLE. See more Joshua T Aug 7 In this period of being transparent, I fully admit that this movie is not the greatest. That said, the reason why I'm giving it four and a half stars anyway is because it happens to be one of my favorite movies of all time. Much of that is due to nostalgia as I grew up with this film, but as I've grown older and continued to rewatch it, there have been other aspects that I've really grown to appreciate independently of my nostalgia for the movie, most especially the soundtrack. I will maintain that the soundtrack of this movie is at the top of my favorite soundtrack list. Also the writing, though sometimes corny, does come across as earnest and the teen/child actors do a remarkably good job. The special effects are really bad. Like it-almost-looks-like-a-Windows-screensaver-at-times bad at best, and nightmare fuel inducing at worst. They weren't great even by 2003 standards, and have only grown worse over time. That said, if you're willing to look past it, they are serviceable. (And I don't mind them at all considering that I'm very nostalgic for this movie) All in all, I honestly think that while the 2018 film Is technically better as a film, I still 100% prefer this version, especially as an adaptation of the book (which I also love). The 2018 film in my opinion did not do the book justice in many ways, while this, the 2003 film, does do the book justice despite all of its many, many flaws. I strongly recommend it to anyone who has my taste, which to be fair is probably not very many people See more max a 10/09/2022 I haven't read the novel this movie was based on, which I assume would have cleared a lot of my confusion, still I find the movie decent enough. Sure, most of the time it's a rollercoaster and it feels hard to follow, but at least David Dorfman's performance was good. See more 04/12/2022 Funny and original!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes it was a bit different than the book but it was close enough. I loved Mrs. Whatsit flying into the kitchen as a crow & transforms into a human. The best was the the cast. They pick the best people for the roles. See more Read all reviews
