Look at that cast! You'd think this movie would have been good! But, alas, it was terrible. And it had such promise, too.
I looked forward for over a year to the release of Inkheart starring three of my favorite Hollywood dudes. The plot looked interesting and original, and I expected the film to at least be good.
Such was not the case though.
The film's only redeeming quality ended up being the acting, since the plot was ruined by the ending of this movie.
And, for me, a hero is only as good as his villian is bad. The villian (Andy Serkis) was great, very threatening, but HIS boss was a joke.
Factoid: The film Inkheart was based off the book of the same title. Cornelia Funke, author of Inkheart, told Brendan Fraser that he inspired her book character Mo, who Fraser played in the movie.
