About this movie

Liam Neeson, Felicity Jones, and Sigourney Weaver star in this visually spectacular and stunningly emotional drama. Young Conor's life takes a turn after his mother (Felicity Jones) becomes ill and he moves in with his unsympathetic grandmother (Sigourney Weaver). As an escape, Conor turns to his artwork and conjures up a 40-foot-high monster (voiced by Liam Neeson) who becomes a most unlikely ally by guiding him on a journey of courage, faith and truth that powerfully fuses imagination and reality.

Ratings and reviews

I hate this movie! I went on a field trip to see this garbage! Worst movie ever! DO NOT SEE THIS PIECE OF TRASH! I fell asleep because this movie was so stupid. I don't care about this broken plot. I'll be honest, hearing people say this is the best movie makes me cry. The book is just as garbage as the movie. I regret seeing that horrendous monstrosity. 0 stars. Rip-off of The BFG. The reason I didn't cry at all, is because I didn't care about the characters or the story. The monster was my most hated character. The 3 tales were more boring than Halo 5's campaign. In fact, I'd rather play Halo 4's multiplayer than watch that trash.

Whichever studio executive greenlighted that project is a sociopath. "Hey guys! Great idea! Let's ambiguously market this movie as being a children's tale similar to The BFG movie from Disney. But in reality it will be a clinically depressing tale of anger, school violence, death, and cancer!"

I thought it was a kids movie but I was clearly wrong. It was the saddest movie by far I have ever seen in my life. I litterly had nightmares when I watched chronical and I would rather watch that then this. Do not let your kids watch this, they will cry, I garantie you
