Something about this movie is tugging at my heart. It may be that it has a visual and tonal similarity to the Harry Potter franchise. It could be that it’s just Tim Burton working with a story that he feels especially motivated with. It could just be the lovely musical accompaniment despite questionable casting. There’s a lot about this trailer that evokes a hybrid of Harry Potter, X-Men, and a little bit of Alice in Wonderland that is tugging at my curiosity too.

This film is remaining on the radar for the time being.

[20th Century Fox]
