The Secret Of Moonacre lacks action, adventure and magic.
February 12, 2009
A film about magic that remains obdurately unmagical.
February 05, 2009
Nicely put together, but just a little dull.

A sweet if faintly soporific fantasy adventure for family audiences.

Enchanting fantasy turns teen into sweet, selfless princess.
February 06, 2009
This whimsical children's tale is uninspired yet doesn't drop far enough below mediocrity to justify a place in the lineup of "so-bad-they're-good" movies.
February 10, 2009
A sluggish narrative is further hampered by "comic" turns (Juliet Stevenson, as a gurning governess) and some frankly shameless knockoffs.

Richards starred in 2007's The Golden Compass and, compared with big-budget fantasies of that kind, this smaller effort can't help looking mimsy, despite its good intentions.
February 06, 2009
It's a slow-moving affair with wooden acting, duff special effects and some woefully unfunny comic moments from Tim Curry as an undersized chef. All in all, the thing's severely lacking in magic.
February 10, 2009
Routine special effects merely add to the impression that this is a second division fantasy.
