It was enjoyable, mainly for the artful images (I love the water turning into fish and back) and the depiction of a smart and caring young boy. The very short distance in time between "if this happened, it would be a disaster" being said, and then that thing happening surprised me - usually that gets drawn out a little more. I also found Liam Neeson as the voice of the wizard slightly distracting, but otherwise it was a light and enjoyable film.
