Great cast, but underused. Coupled with seriously poor direction, made a potentially great ripping yarn for all the family into a yawn fest, where you simply couldn't care how it ended!

Giving it 4 stars only because my little one loved it. All young actors were pretty poor, even Sam Neill couldn't save the film. Quire badly directed too, don't expect an adventure masterpiece.

Good movie, reminds me of George Mann's Newbury & Hobbs tales...it has a few splashes of Steam Punk for lovers of this genre.
