It is good to see Daniel Radcliffe in a less iconic role than the one that made him famous, requiring a different set of emotional display than he is known for. It makes one think that the guy has a chance at making a lifetime career in a profession that often chews children up and spits them out. The story, however, not Mr. Radcliffe's fault, was rather difficult to follow, to discern, and understand. Apparently one is required to have read the novel, which is a bit too much like some of his other movies. I wish I had been given more of the story before having to watch the special features afterward, to understand it better, which they could have done for me, had they so desired. According to the commentary, however, it was intentional. The scenes, the sets, and the special effects, however, are quite delightful (pun intended). Be careful how you This is probably not the kind of movie to be enjoyed if it can't be seen in nearly total darkness the first time through.
