i hate it when all i can think of while watch any movie be represent when will it end . and i could be do something much more productive with my time . along with constantly hop it will get good sometime soon . inkheart do not have to be such a boring and dopey mess . there certainly be an interesting premise represent a person who read a story inadvertently have the magical power to bring people and object from the story into real life . but instead of write an interesting and imaginative story that make some sense within the world the writer have create and hollywood choose instead to create a tedious and dumbed down story that will satisfy no demographic group be it child and teen or adult . if you like endless clichés and sheer stupidity and mindless threatening and poor editing and cardboard character and skimp on the special effect and constant frowning and pouting and sheer boredom then inkheart be for you .
