Christina Ricci (Speed Racer) stars as Penelope, a lonely heiress who has spent her entire life trying to break a strange family curse that left her with the nose of a pig. When she meets a charming aristocrat (James McAvoy, Atonement) who seems to see beyond her physical appearance, Penelope begins to learn that loving herself is more important than breaking the curse. Also starring Reese Witherspoon (Legally Blonde) and Catherine O'Hara (Best In Show), Penelope is a delightful modern-day fairy tale for the entire family.

Balorazioak eta iritziak

It's a great movie that speaks to everyone working to accept their flaws. It is silly and makes light, or lighter, of hard issues. A movie that is silly but knows it and uses it to prove a point. While it felt rushed at times, still a good movie.

I really liked the movie. I had never heard of it before I watched it. It was surprisingly good, which is always the best way to find a movie, when you have no expectations. Endearing, sweet, etc.

Used to watch this with my kids all the time when they were five/six years old. It was a transitional time in my life and that was one of many movies I'd watch regularly with the kids.
