Bookworm Ratings & Reviews

SpoonsOctober 14, 2024
“Bookworm” is a delightful adventure that weaves together family dynamics, humor, and heart. After seeing it at FrightFest, it’s clear this film isn’t your typical FrightFest fare. With Elijah Wood’s character, Strawn, and the young explorer Mildred at the helm, the film takes us through the stunning landscapes of New Zealand on a quest that balances cozy aesthetics with thrilling elements. The film is visually engaging, contrasting Mildred’s old-fashioned explorer charm with Strawn’s goth magician vibe. It offers a story rich in moral storytelling, suitable for families with older children who appreciate a bit of mature humor. A must-watch for fans of character-driven adventures! This film will be popular with people who like Jumanji (1995), The Spiderwick Chronicles (2008), The Chronicles of Narnia (2005), and Bridge to Terabithia (2007), for their family-oriented, adventure-driven stories with fantastical elements.
