Well done movie from the Disney / Spielberg productions. Geared for the younger viewer, but very watchable for the young at heart. I specially liked the scene with the Queen and the bubbly drinks, great comedic moment.
Excellent special FX with the rendering of the giants. The movie runs a bit slow at times but is great fun.
