the effects were great. The story line and somebody the acting not so much. The movie starts off slow but if you like Tim Burton there's enough to get you to the better parts. Might be a bit scary for children.

Fantasy with amazing graphics. Enchanting magic!

A fresh and engaging storybook adventure that should appeal to viewers both inside and out of the core demographic.

The sense of film craft here is so delicate and assured that, even at its most razzle dazzle-prone moments, the movie never seems to be straining for effect.

For a movie that’s meant to have some magic in it, Peculiar Children displays little buoyancy, the proceedings weighed down by tedious world-building and perfunctory thematic lip-service about the need for community and the power that comes from finding one’s voice.
