The Secret Garden

Being a big fan of the original I hadn't expected much from this remake. But it really was awful. Low budget with terrible acting, it lacks any emotion or excitement. Wish I hadn't wasted an hour and a half of my evening.

The whole steampunk theme wasn't the best, but it wasn't the worst either. The acting was horrible. I could hardly tolerate it. Don't waste your money on it.

I like the steampunk variation idea. I like clean fun family entertainment. I love the original book. The set was fine. But, I've seen middle school plays with better acting and costuming.

-The characters were one dimensional and the lines terribly delivered. For example: the doctor glared whenever he was on and delivered all his lines in the same tone.

-Colin crying? The whole family laughed outloud at what should have been a troubling scene. No emotion evoked in the entire movie.

-Mary and Dicken do tolerably, but no one else can act at all.

• Martha's hair? What?

-The creepy doll? Creepy.

-The neglectful father? What a stupid character.

Horrible acting, questionable plot changes. Using steampunk as a new setting is a great idea but dreadfully executed.

Possibly the worst thing I've done to my eyes in the past few months

The acting is terrible let me start off with that, almost cringey in some areas. However it is an interesting twist on a well loved story and the costumes and steam punk elements really add to it. Overall it is not a bad movie and a mostly enjoyable watch with the quarantine.
