Good technical production but completely unbelievable. So many glaring 'that ain't ever gonna' happen' themes You just can't get drawn in to the story. The Goosebumps story's that were written for early teen readers had more logical plots than this . The actors did a decent job with what they were given but sow's ears don't make very good silk purses. If you chose to waste time from your life watching this you can at least find some redeeming value by noticing the stereo typing of the bad guys. I wonder if they spent too much effort trying to be politically correct that they forgot about making the movie entertaining? Nah... it was just a poorly thought out story from the get-go.
