MNS was the wrong director for this movie. I'm not sure who the right one would have been, but I think MNS is better suited to his own creations.

I've liked the sequences in the previews I've seen, but it seems the casting is poor. I'll probably see this once it's released to video. It really takes something else for me to go to the theater, especially now with a baby in the house. I'll probably see the next Harry Potter in the theater though.
