Hobgoblins for Kiddies
By: nataleekwDate: Thursday, February 28, 2008
This movie was a wonderful tribute to the Spiderwick Chronicles book series. Not only was the story line dead on the acting was good enough to pull you into the story. The hobgoblins and other creatures were made with great animation and added a powerful character addition to the movie. The children could not have pulled this movie off without the help of their fantasy friends and enemies.
Great movie for children and not bad for adults. Though the story line is a little simple, most adults would be able to sit through it without much complaint.
