The Spiderwick Chronicles

The Spiderwick Chronicles is a movie about three kids that move into the Spiderwick Estate with their mother. One of the boys opens a magic book that is clearly labeled with a warning. He and his family then find themselves seeing an alternate world where magical creatures exist. Some of these magical creatures are evil and want the book. It is a very interesting storyline that also explains the existence of the book and what happened to the occupants of the house. The visual effects are pretty good and there is enough action to keep the story moving along. There are also some comedic moments in the movie which make it quite enjoyable.
About 79% of critics on RottenTomatoes recommended The Spiderwick Chronicles and I would give it a score of 8.5.
