As Seen On Screen

As Seen on Screen offers readers a chance to see film reviews for the everyman, without all of the clutter and nonsense fed to the average filmgoer. Plain, straitforward, to the point. That's our goal. We offer a diverse catalogue of which to choose from, from silent comedies to modern superhero films. Final note: this is a family friendly blog. We only review films rated G through PG-13, plus the unrated films of yesteryear. So if this sounds like your cup of tea, pull up a crumpet and enjoy. Thanks for your support!

     Inkheart
2008  PG  FANTASY  1h 46min
CAST— Brendan Fraser
MUSIC— Javier Navarrete  DIRECTOR— Iain Softley  BASED ON— Inkheart (novel), by Cornelia Funke

     A literate family friendly fantasy adventure. Brendan Fraser holds a wondrous secret: if ever he reads aloud the written subject will come to be. As he read from a novel entitled Inkheart evil characters came to life and, tragically, his wife disappeared into the realm of the story. Now, years later, he searches for the illusive volume in hopes of reuniting with his lost love. But the thugs from the book want him to awaken a great evil upon this world; if he won’t comply then perhaps his daughter will. Though a few familiar creatures pop up you can’t help but crave more characters from beloved stories of yesteryear. Actually manages to inspire a love of reading… but never out loud.
OUR RATING— ** ½
