Yeah, I'd watch it once, mousepod. The visuals are great and there are 3 or 4 really terrifying moments. There are also some nifty concepts, and as a bit of a fairy tale buff, I enjoyed many of the references. I'm glad I saw it, but all I could think afterwards was "it could have been so much better!"

It reminded me that moviemaking is such a specific art. I can't pin down what was wrong with the film, yet it was obvious it had too much of something and not enough of something else.
