Review of The Seeker: The Dark Is Rising (2007) by Bethc. — 04 Oct 2007
This is a horrible adaptation of the beloved series which should be avoided. They believe that our children are too stupid to handle another nationality as being the lead in anything and that you have to have an "American" playing the lead.
This has been so mutilated and messed with, that it is not a creative remaking, it's a slap in the faces of children and adults alike. Buy the books for your kids and let them into a world which inspired JKR.
Those of you who have had the pleasure of reading these books know what I'm talking about. When a mere movie trailer makes you cringe, just think what the movie will do. It has such a great potential.
But with it's roots and heart ripped out of it, all it does is bleed its inadequacies all over the screen. Shame on you Hollywood for thinking our children are just dumb toy buying sheep. I know my children are as outraged as I at this treatment.
