      Audience Member I couldn't get into this, I tried twice as I am a huge fan of the books but this isn't very true to the series, they have used the general idea and set-up but not much else. The characters are quite irritating, particularly Jupiter and the girl. Boys under 12 would probably love this, it's not bad at all, it's just not what I think it should be! Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I was a big fan of these books as a kid and even though it wasn't very true to the book, I really enjoyed this film. I've since loaned it to a few friends with kids under 12 and they REALLY loved it. It's too bad this movie hasn't received much press or promotion because it's really a lot of fun. Take a chance I think you'll be surprised. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review dennis f Not as good as the book, which was probably the best of the whole Alfred Hitchcock and the 3 investigators series - but still a good movie - this book seemed to be ahead of its time - Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member It's an interesting movie. Sloppy at the beginning but managed to survive at the end. If the actors were better then the movie could have been great. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Reading earlier reviews I deduce that "T3I and the Secret of Terror Castle" does not meet their expectation. We easily understood that because this movie is really targeted to adolescent and below. If I was that age I would probably truly enjoy the movie but only if I haven't read the book yet. Kids would easily enjoy this movie because it's cool enough, such as the castle. I was afraid to watch this movie for the reason that it would tarnish my good memory of Three Investigators and it prove to be true. When I was reading the book I always feel fascinated, the location, the characters it seems just magical. Watching the movie, it seems that it is a different world from the one in the book. As I said that it would entertain many kids which just watching it now and never had reading the book before, we adults that enticed to watch it in which we demand something else than those kids will be disappointed. We adults hope to see interesting and eccentric characters and dialogs, that cool accents from Jupiter Jones, more peculiar music soundtrack, and more magical-feel but normal-looking towns would not get what we want. We won't even entertained by the case which is the one most interesting thing why we want to read the next novel. For young men don't miss this one for it is really rare this kind of movie around: Kids Detective that investigate peculiar case without an element of Action in which nowadays detective movie would always combined.
