Jack the Giant Killer (2013)

Best movie of this year hands down!

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Move over Ben Hur ,get out of the way Star Wars , this movie will not can not be stopped .If you have read any Negative critique of this fan based fantastic movie throw them out of your mind. Call the kids call grandma and gather around the flat screen you just bought from wal mart's .cook up two not one bag of popcorn because you're going to want more of everything .Not even the game of thrones can hold a flicker of a candle to this GOD SEND of a movie bravo,bravo,bravo . Cheers to the writer,cheers to the editor,cheers for costume design, Hell even craft service should get a ring for the super bowl champ effort of the film . When I was just a ladd back in Ireland I would spend my days picking seashells by the seashore for Suzy Sutherman ... And dreaming of the day that i would have the good fortune to experience a film like this .. what a joy to watch i have seen it 12 times at this point . But i promise all the gods of ODEN that i will watch it once a week until the day that I I'm called to the big movie house in the sky .

Firstly look at that poster... see that scary monster on the front with those massive teeth? Yeah? Not in the movie!There are monsters, some the size of dinosaurs and one more like Godzilla in proportions, but they are all the same species, a sort of short tailed 6 eyed bull like reptile. The big one is the same CGI model but scaled up.The acting / dialogue is stilted and funny. It has a delightful amateur- dramatics quality to it. And the guy playing the general is hamming it up to Monty Python standards. Nothing about this is remotely believable but as another reviewer noted, the floaty castle is quite nice. Though powered by a fire that looked barely strong enough to toast marshmallows on. The CGI - is very bad, very 90s. Probably someone with a copy of some 3D software offered to do it for free. The worst is the whip effects of the beanstalk. Anyway I highly recommend you don't waste money on this - if you can watch it for free and make a drinking game or something silly out of it then you may have a better evening than I did.

I watched this recently on Netflix or Amazon Prime, I forget which. It was absolutely one of the worst movies I had ever seen. I was definitely duped into watching it because I thought it was the one out in theaters recently.The acting is complete garbage, and I am not going to spend even another minute on this piece of tripe. I will not "advertise" this for the owner/director, even with a One-Star rating that I give it. My wife and I could not even watch it to completion, it was THAT bad.Many people will be confused by this title. Too bad we can't demand a refund of the rental cost.You have been warned. I cannot express strongly enough what a POS this is.

Holy Christ. Why? Why make this film. I don't mean why bother making such a bad idea, why bother ripping off a recent big movie? I mean why bother wasting my time with a dull pointless plot, characters and concept.Dull as gray. I mean it takes some serious apathy to take the idea of a giant robot building kid climbing a tree to find a queen in a magic flying castle where his *SPOILER* Dad who's been trapped in an alternative time strain maintains the furnace of said flying castle. I mean I think that's what going on but you know what there's so much going on that I don't care about it was like watching that welsh soap opera that's on the that digital channel that you accidentally stop on when flicking through because you can't remember the number for E4 and you want to see if they're showing Big Bang theory during the afternoon but the phone goes so you stop flicking and the TV stops on the Welsh channel.... see I'm so bored of even thinking about this movie.So there's some kid, some girl who we never discover who she is, though based on the set up she could be his sister, then we meet some parents who it turns out aren't his parents, but by this time I didn't care... and we were only 6 minutes in.Kids gets magic beans in the post (nice to tell a story people can relate to) he throws them all away but *SPOILER* they all re-appear at the end by the magic of continuity errors.Beanstalk grows over night into a poor digital effect... *SIGH* kid climbs it for some reason, I forget why, but it's Jack and the Beanstalk so he has to, the reason is irrelevant.Oh do you like pointless shots of a kid walking across hills? Well this film has 10 minutes of that, but they're boring so I don't recommend them.They mess about in a flying castle which looks like a stately home on the inside. There's some tart in the bath who's sexy but bad but dull as well.Everyone else stands around on earth looking up at the beanstalk doing nothing about it apart from telling the massive crowd of 3 to back away.I must have fallen asleep for an hour or 2 minutes as then for some reason dinosaurs or something attack a church yard in Liverpool, trashing half the city causing dozens of pounds worth of damage. Though the people who show up to see Paul McCartney perform are disappointed that they got the wrong end of the stick when someone told them about an annoying Liverpudlian dinosaur.The film them ends in a lot of poor green screen close up shots, emphasizing the style and theme of no budget.The giant robot then arrives, yeah giant robot, in a scene that even the Power Rangers would be embarrassed to show....The film gets better as it goes along, as each minute we're closer to the end credits.You know what, Eff you, you go watch it, I did.
