Let's give it a try!

You must be advised dear reader that I only watched the movie and I didn't read the book version written by Ransom Rigg!

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children is directed by Tim Burton (Director of The Nightmare Before Christmas, Big Fish, Frankenweenie and more) and a book adaptation of New York Time's Best Selling novel of the same title.

I think getting Tim Burton to direct this film was wise because he was able to bring his dark and macabre to the story. And the scene with Enoch's "toys" were fighting in classic stop-motion animation is just a signature of Tim Burton and that was perfect for me.

I liked the performance of Eva Green as a Miss Peregrine in this movie, she was perfect in the role, the eyeliner and the long nails to emulate the bird talons was perfect to her!

In the other side of the coin I don't liked the performance of Asa Butterfield as Jake I think his poor acting performance ruined the dark and macabre of the movie, for me he is not fit to the role.

And last but not the least for me the villains are too weak and easy to defeat, and the fighting scene was boring for me!

3 over 5 An entertaining dark adventure of Miss Peregrine and the Peculiar children...
