★★½ Watched 13 Jun 2025

Pointless scene-for-scene remake of the superior animated version.

Starts very flat but builds up to a good finale.

Nick Frost is a significant weak link as usual. He can't act.

1994

★★★½ Rewatched 27 May 2025

Curious blend of the documentary style, and roucous storytelling. Lovely to look at, but has dull stretches.

'The third one is the best of the prequels' they said...

One of the worst films I've ever seen.
If you are going to use this much CGI, just make it an animated movie and be done with it.
Long, nonsensical, and full of lamentable performances.
One for the fans only.

So before I say anything about the film, I was amazed and somewhat saddened to read so many negative comments about Spencer Tracy from other s. I love him so much, and think he has done such great work that to hear him described as 'lazy', 'smug', 'bland', 'despicable' etc. was a real shock. To me, he is the greatest.

Anyway, I love this script, I love the performances, the chemistry, and the general feel of the whole thing. Hepburn…
