Worst kind of family film. Although the make up department must certainly have sweated their pants out, the total outcome is outright ugliness.
First of all, the story is very uninteresting and uninspiredly written; they try to blend a number of different and unrelated mythical stories and come up with a moronic hotchpotch that's really an insult to intelligence. It all looks like nobody cared to write a descent script and it seems as if every single scene is improvised from scratch without any rehearsal what so ever.
The characters are utterly predictable and fail miserably in creating a personality. Their overdone goodness and badness gives me the creeps. Beau Bridges is the scariest of all. A family film monster if you ask me.
