Search: Starring Ioan Gruffudd

The film would embarrass a turkey farmer.

Scott surpasses himself. The visual quality of the action sequences is exceptional.

While the gags are aimed squarely at a family audience, there’s nothing wrong with that and this is certainly a film you could take even tiddlers to without worrying they are going to have nightmares later.

Has the feel of an authentic autobiography, where nothing is straightforward.

Ultimately more heart-warming and life-affirming than you would ever imagine a film centred on casual violence could be.

The dialogue has a tendency to forget what century it is.

The greatest horror comes from moments of intended 'deep' emotion, which ring as hollow as the cave system in which they are set.

Despite all the chaos, I've seen more mild peril in an episode of Scooby-Doo - except that, in Scooby-Doo, the female characters have some agency.

We don’t get much explicit backstory, so it’s the chemistry between the actors that’s important to making this slight story convince, and for the most part, it’s there.

In the end I found myself won over by the charm of this film's various creative idiosyncrasies and by the charisma of Brolin’s performance.
