Critics consensus

“Despite impressive production values, this is staid, plodding and unimpressive fantasy-fare, with poor performances struggling with an underdeveloped script.”

RTThe Times (UK)Feb 12, 2009

Richards starred in 2007's The Golden Compass and, compared with big-budget fantasies of that kind, this smaller effort can't help looking mimsy, despite its good intentions.

Anthony Quinn

RTIndependent (UK)Feb 10, 2009

A sluggish narrative is further hampered by "comic" turns (Juliet Stevenson, as a gurning governess) and some frankly shameless knockoffs.

RTGuardianFeb 6, 2009

A sweet if faintly soporific fantasy adventure for family audiences.

Enchanting fantasy turns teen into sweet, selfless princess.
