WEEKEND ARTS REVIEW: FILMS
A The Tale of Despereaux
Those who liked reading Kate DiCamillo’s The Tale of Despereaux will certainly enjoy the film. It’s about Despereaux, a likeable mouse with big ears who falls in love with a human princess called Pea. A servant girl, who wants to become the princess, kidnaps Pea with the help of Roscuro, an evil rat. It is up to Despereaux to defeat his opponents and rescue Pea. Although it is an American film, The Tale of Despereaux has an interesting European feel to it. It features a great cast of voice actors, with Mathew Broderick starring as Despereaux. It might not do well at the box office, because it is more artistic than action-packed, but it is sure to be a significant film for true film lovers.
B Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Indy is back! After years of waiting, enthusiasts of the adventurous archaeologist Indiana Jones, once again played by Harrison Ford, can enjoy their favourite character as he’s off to uncover more mysteries of the ancient world. Everything we expect from an Indiana Jones film is there: the action, the special effects, the excitement, and the clever dialogues. Yet, those of us who have been following Indy’s career since its start will feel like we’ve seen it all before. Predictable or not, though, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is still an excellent film for those who enjoy a light-hearted adventure, and it’s also among this year’s greatest box office hits.
C The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
The magical world of Narnia is opening its doors one more time. The four Pevensie children enter the wardrobe once again, this time to help Prince Caspian get his kingdom back from the villain, the evil King Miraz. Prince Caspian has all the fascinating elements that made the first film in the series. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, a success and continues to entertain the audience with its intriguing characters. One problem with it, though, is its runtime: parents might find it challenging to keep their young children still and quiet for almost two and a half hours!
