I wasn't sure that I should comment on this movie as I had mistaken it for a more "mature" movie and therefore was greatly disappointed. I think I was led on by the fact that it stars Daniel Craig and Nicole Kidman but they played a very small part of this movie. I think that Craig was seen less than 10 minutes altogether. Instead you have a 14 year old girl as the protagonist who is resourceful to the point where it becomes ridiculous. Therefore this movie cannot be compared to LOTR. Really! This is more in category with Harry Potter; childish and with the same strange mix of mythologies.
The story was told in a very hurried fashion. Plots and characters were introduced with a minimum of explanation as if they couldn't stand a more thorough scrutiny. Sometimes bad movies still has entertainment value but I can't say this about this movie. I would not recommend it to anybody except maybe to those who are looking for something in the before mentioned Harry Potter genre and doesn't concern themselves with character development.
