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
