First, this is not for purists. It's not really intended to be so if you can get past that you can concentrate on it as something else. What that something else is is a mystery and not a very good mystery. The good news is this film has great costumes, sets, locations, and good acting. However, the bad news is the writing is poor and the plot is boring and scattershot. The most annoying thing for me was Enola's constant breaking of the fourth wall. It's done way too often and it does not really add anything to the experience. The worst thing any movie does is make you not care about the protagonist. How this dull affair rated a sequel is the real mystery here. Watch if you must but prepare to be disappointed.
