Product Description:
INKHEART (DVD MOVIE)
Amazon.com:
"I prefer a story that has the good sense to stay on the page--where it belongs!" declares Elinor Loredan (Helen Mirren, in fine upper-crust form) in Inkheart, a rollicking adventure that appeals to adults as well as tweens and teens. But if Elinor got what she wanted, viewers would not--for the delicious premise of the film (based on Cornelia Funke's best-selling novel is that book lover Mo Folchart (Brendan Fraser) has discovered a way to bring book characters to life. That means that adorable Toto from The Wizard of Oz is suddenly yapping under Mo's daughter Meggie's (Eliza Bennett) bed. But it also means that somewhere, a real person or thing has been sucked into the book world--battling flying monkeys and evildoers that suddenly are real threats. The film is crisply directed by Iain Softley, and Fraser and his costars (including Mirren, Paul Bettany, and Jim Broadbent) are worthy, watchable characters who appear to be having as much fun as the audience. And the film's pro-book message will please young book readers, and their parents, who know that a good adventure in one's imagination can never be rivaled by anything on any screen, of any size. --A.T. Hurley

I would recommand this movie to anyone that is in need of a good light hearted story. Performances from all actors are fantastic. Helen Mirren and Paul Bettany steal every scene they`re in. The story however feels all over the place. As other reviwers have mention, "Inkheart" had all the makings for great movie, a very talented cast, a good concept, set designs,and effects. The list could relly go on, but the story of "Inkheart" could have used more time to tell it`s story, rather than a mere 100 mins.
I will admit if it was not for this movie I would have never heard of Cornelia Funke or her books.
I just started reading the original book and I can honestly say this would been a great mini-series or an actural tv series. Saying that, if any network decided to do a series for Inkheart, I `d pity the actor filling the shoes of Dustfinger after Mr. Bettany `s performance.

What an incredible movie! Parents, kids, aunts, uncles, grandparents... we all enjoyed it. In fact, it started us on an adventure of reading, especially of Cornelia Funke's books. Hope they make the whole trilogy into movies.
Highly recommend any audio book versions that Brendan Frasier reads. He is truly versatile, with an amazing repertoire of voices and accents.

The child liked it. The mom and the dad (me) enjoyed making fun of it. It was everything that I expected.
It is hard to imagine the plot of the movie having been put together by a functional adult. My only question is whether the story's dreadfulness was due to the book or the adaptation.

This is a great film for the whole family. Encourage your kids to read the book or read the book with your kids and then watch the movie.Inkheart

Need some help planning a rainy/snowy afternoon with the grandkids, then pop in this DVD. This has been enjoyed (without needing censoring) by all ages in this household. The movie has enough fun and action for the children and good acting and storyline for the adults. It would be a great stocking stuffer!
