[4.25/10] Artemis Fowl (2020)

Artemis Fowl (2020)

Quick Review: Apart from some decent CGI work, and the presence of the always great Colin Farrell and Judi Dench, who are not just vastly underused, but also forced to work with an insipid script to portray their one-note characters, "Artemis Fowl" is a rushed, erratic, emotionally void and juvenile nonsense of a fantasy flick, suffering from a half-baked plot with flat ideas, under-explained bits, an unlikable protagonist, and lack of proper villain, which sets the bar for the franchise rather low.

What a shame. I've heard it's a really good book for kids.

Heard so too. Sadly, the movie wasn't good even for kids.
