This film is endlessly dark and gloomy for a kids story. But somehow, it works.September 26, 2005
A sick joke of a film that realizes the best children's entertainment doesn't hide from the bleaker side of life, but plunges into the void and respects kids enough to assume they can handle it.December 21, 2004
Heinrichs helps take your mind off the slack direction and the letdown of a climax, which ought to make the kiddies hurl Gummi Bears at the screen.November 15, 2011
Episodic but entertaining.December 20, 2004
A lavishly mounted blockbuster that has little personality of its own except on a purely visual level.February 27, 2009
Between Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and Lemony Snicket 2004 is a banner year for dark and fun kid's films.November 20, 2008
A dastardly unadulterated delight of a film.July 06, 2010
Whilst the direction and script seem off, the rest of the production work is excellent.December 25, 2010
Book's fans will enjoy, but too creepy for some.October 03, 2006

It just kind of spins its wheels.
