Slumberland (2022) is a movie that my daughter and I recently watched on Netflix. The storyline follows a young lady who recently lost her dad. She lived with her dad in a lighthouse and he told her stories of adventures from his past nightly. After his passing she finds an opportunity to retrace the steps of his adventures.
This picture is directed by Francis Lawrence (I Am Legend) and stars Jason Momoa (Aquaman), Marlow Barkley (Spirited), Chris O'Dowd (Bridesmaids), Kyle Chandler (Argo) and Weruche Opia (Bad Education).
This is a unique film with a nice story and solid ending. The special effects are out of this world but a bit too much at times. Jason Mamoa gets better as the film unfolds. There were some scenes that I loved - the misdirection sequence was good and every scene at the Spanish Club was beautiful. I adored the daddy/daughter relationship aspects as well.
Overall, this is an above average addition to the family entertainment genre. I would score this a 5.5-6/10 and recommend seeing it once.
