The Spiderwick Chronicles Positive reviews

2021-12-12 08:01
"Chroniques de Spiderwick" had a very good response in the previous screenings. Critics from mainstream media such as "The Hollywood Reporter", "Variety", and "USA Today" gave the film a four-star rating. Although a box office evaluation expert pointed out earlier that the plot setting of this film is likely to fall into the gap between "Bridge to Trabizia" and "The Chronicles of Narnia", the actual effect is far beyond their imagination. In this film, Haimer does not reveal any flaws in the two corners of the player, and the use of special effects scenes does not have the extravagance of " The Chronicles of Narnia " and " The Golden Compass ", nor is it like "Towards Trabia". "The Bridge" and "Loch Ness Monster" are as stretched. The various small monsters that appeared in the film are very cute, and they show a different look in the magic and horror elements that the director deliberately added. Compared with the story setting of " Jumanji ", the plot of this film is not completely realized by upgrading the scene, from the three children discovering the secret of the house, to exploring the conflict between good and evil in the fantasy kingdom, and then interacting with adults. , All have achieved a degree of relaxation, which is very enjoyable.
The reason why the film has not become another ordinary children's science fiction drama comes from director Mark Waters' sensitive filmmaking techniques, which deepens an emotional atmosphere in the whole story.

The Spiderwick Chronicles quotes

  • [Lucinda asks her father Arthur Spiderwick to take her back with him]

    Arthur Spiderwick: I'm so sorry. I was so captivated by all the magical creatures I found that I lost sight of the one I already had. But I see now, and I may never be able to forgive myself.

    Aunt Lucinda Spiderwick: You came back as you promised, so I forgive you.

    Arthur Spiderwick: My dear, because the book was saved, the sylph allowed me to come see you, but I cannot stay. Because if I do, all my years will come back to me all at once, and I will turn to dust.

    Aunt Lucinda Spiderwick: Then this time, take me with you.

    [Arthur holds out his hand as Lucinda smiles and holds out to take his hand]

  • Helen Grace: So, you say you found this book, and it tells you how to see faeries and goblins and magic sprites, and that's what this is all about.

    Jared Grace: [frustrated] I told you you wouldn't believe me.

    Helen Grace: What do you think about all this, Mal?

    Mallory Grace: It's true, Mom.

    Helen Grace: No, it's not! Do you really think I am so stupid that I don't see what this is about? You hate the house and you want to go back to New York and to our old life! Well, let me just be really clear when I say that isn't gonna happen. Because we can't afford New York, because...

    Jared Grace: This is why Dad left, you know. When someone's trying to tell you something you don't wanna hear, this is what you do. You just stop listening and start yelling. You did it to Dad all the time.

    Helen Grace: Stop it.

    Jared Grace: I saw you.

    Helen Grace: Yeah, you saw what you wanted to see.

    Jared Grace: [Jared is on the verge of exploding] YOU WOULD'NT LISTEN, AND THAT'S WHY HE LEFT!

    Helen Grace: [upset] Get out of the car.

    Jared Grace: Gladly.

    [super angry and furious now]

    Jared Grace: I HATE YOU AND I DON'T WANT TO LIVE WITH YOU!
