Bewertungen und Rezensionen

It seems to only lift the bare minimum of necessities from the book. It tries at times to introduce some higher level themes but in the end just kind of glosses over them instead. It's an enjoyable little romp that may or may not be OK for kids not in the double digit years. I'm sure those that have read the book will enjoy it as the story brought to life, but as a standalone film it is kind of hit or miss. Still, Freddie Highmore shows us again why he is one of the best up and coming young actors as he portrays both twins in this film as two completely separate characters (although most screen time and development goes to the main twin and the other is often left out, unfortunately).

I watch this movie all through out my life, and I have to say it's one of the best movies I have ever seen! I would understand if people don't understand it in the beginning it's hard to grab a good grip on what's it about, the first couple of times I watched I didn't understand and the it all clicked. I suggest this movie if you have kids I feel it was a real good job with the monsters and the plot. I hope people like it as much as I did!😃😃😃

As great an actor as highmore is just couldn't bring enough diversity between the twins, i still love the movie though
