Tell us what you thought about The book of Henry
One of the best films I have watched recently. The film, starring Naomi Watts, tells the story of a boy genius who does not like violence and leaves a book to deal with the abuse by the next door neighbour of his step daughter.
You will go from laughter to sobbing and back to suspense and feel good. Brilliantly acted by Watts and the two boys. Superb story, writing, directing and cinematography.
A must watch film.
