i will totally exclude the fact that they rap the book . the book be delightful and enchant and enthral . the movie be the total opposite of all these thing . the acting be awful on all front . terrible direct from frank oz and terrible casting and terrible everything . i only revisit this disaster to put myself to sleep last night . there be only a few circumstance for anyone to be see this . dodge at all cost unless youre curious about the book comparison or if you have a kid that you need to distract for 90 minute or so . horrendous adaptation and horrendous film making .
