About this movie

An age-old war is reignited when a young farmhand unwittingly opens a gateway between our world and a fearsome race of giants. Unleashed on the Earth for the first time in centuries, the long-banished giants strive to reclaim the land they once lost, forcing the young man, Jack (Nicholas Hoult), into the battle of his life to stop them. Fighting for a kingdom, its people, and the love of a brave princess, he comes face to face with the unstoppable warriors he thought only existed in legend...and gets the chance to become a legend himself.

Overall a well made film. I really enjoyed it, great family film for all ages (I'm 26). Same story of Jack and the beanstalk with a few small twists. I would definitely recommend this film.

In my life I have had many amazing experiences. These include the miracle of childbirth and seeing a sunset after climbing a mountain. All are eclipsed by this incredible film. I have a tattoo of the front cover on my chest now.
