| Pros |
Oh everything |
| Cons |
R.O.U.S.es (but I don't believe they exist) |
| Bottom Line |
Are you kidding? Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles... |

| Pros |
Interruptions during the story, where the grandson and grandfather are talking can get annoying. |
| Cons |
It's an adventurous, funny, family fairytale that you can watch over and over again. |
| Bottom Line |
I recommend it for families with children, but it's a great movie for everyone. |
