no redeem value . a cheap piece of trash that bear the same resemblance to the book by leguin a a ford pinto do to a pinto stallion . everyone involve in this production should be ashamed . the producer be clearly look for a way to rip off harry potter and or or the lord of the ring when they stumble upon this venerable series of fantasy book . obviously they be just look for a brand name to slap onto their uninspired sword and sorcery tale . to get the earthsea story to fit this mold and they have strip out everything original and worthwhile and challenge about the original book . it not even clear the screenwriter read the original book and they appear to have write down the character name and geographical feature and start from there .
