The Secret Life of Tom Thumb, Review



This is an animation from UK that uses claymation , stop action techniques to tell the tale of Tom Thumb and Jack the Giant Killer. Tom is born to normal sized parents who love him dearly. Because he is so unique, he is kidnapped for scientific study. He is rescued by a mutant dragon and has other adventures, too.

There are a lot of very weird looking bugs in this movie and the fish move strangely o the the plate. I better not say more and spoil it. There are moments of tenderness and very sad moments, too.

This is just the strange and touching kind of movie that I like. I give it 4.5/5 acorns.
