The Book of Henry stars Naomi Watts, Jaeden Lieberher, Jason Tremblay, and Sarah Silverman, that tells the story of a single mother who discovers a scheme in her son's book to rescue a young girl from the hands of her abusive stepfather and sets out to execute the plan at any cost.

Overall, the film sucked... bad. I give it props for taking risks to go out and try something new, a.k.a., breaking the rules. Though, the writing of the film, from its dialog, action, and what not, was essentially corny. The dialog was cringeworthy, and stupid. It was deliberately a stupid film, generally because of the plot, but again, the film took a leap into risks of trying something new, and I have all respect for that. Though, as for its dialog, it affected much of the acting in the film, making it plain out dumb.
