Unbearably stupid

The story is okay, but the film is mentally handicapped.
Even children's literature is not such a way of filming. All the actors and actresses have rigid expressions, and they speak like reciting lines, especially the young Middle Eastern youth who read it out with a silly expression.
The most uncomfortable thing is that villain number one, like Mr. Bean, dressed in a black suit and said something serious and expressionless.
The characters are silly, and the plot is silly.
The actor has been looking for his wife for nine years, and he is not as powerful as the novel written by his daughter, and annihilated all the villains in one fell swoop. He can write and read a few words at random, so why did he go?
I can only say one word for this movie: silly.
Of course, maybe the original novel is a good book, and it was ruined by this movie.
Even if this movie is not for adults, but for children, can children at this level be deceived?

  • Capricorn: Oh you are going to love him, and by love I mean cower in terror from.

  • Elinor Loredan: But I just adore everything Persian.

    Meggie Folchart: You've been to Persia, then?

    Elinor Loredan: Yes, a hundred times. Along with St. Petersburg, Paris, Middle-Earth, distant planets and Shangri-la. And I never had to leave this room. Books are adventure. They contain murder and mayhem and passion. They love anyone who opens them.
