Jack the Giant Slayer (2013) Synopsis :

In the Kingdom of Cloister, Jack, a young farm boy, is fascinated by the legend of Erik, an ancient king who defeated an army of invading giants from a realm in the sky by controlling them with a magical crown. At the same time, Princess Isabelle becomes fascinated with the same legend.

Ten years later, Jack goes into town to sell his horse to support his uncle's farm. There, Jack spots Isabelle and develops a crush on her, after defending her honor from a group of thugs. Meanwhile, Lord Roderick returns to his study, only to find that a monk has robbed him. The monk offers Jack some magic beans he stole from Roderick as collateral for Jack's horse. Back at the castle, Isabelle quarrels with her father, King Brahmwell, as she wants to explore the kingdom, but he wants her to stay and marry Roderick. Likewise, Jack's uncle scolds him for being foolish before throwing the beans on the floor and leaving the house.

Determined to be free, Isabelle sneaks out of the castle and seeks shelter from.......

Goofs: Continuity: During the fight with Roderick, Elmont drops Jack's dagger three times, yet only seems to pick it up once. The first time is when he falls into the giant statue (he does not pick it up), the second when the blade is knocked from his hands (which he later picks up with his mouth), and the third is when the blade is stabbed into Roderick. Somehow, between the first and second instances, the dagger ended up in Elmont's hands.

Plot: The ancient war between humans and a race of giants is reignited when Jack, a young farmhand fighting for a kingdom and the love of a princess, opens a gateway between the two worlds. Full summary »  »

Story: Sent to the market by his uncle to sell their horse and buy thatch for their roof, Jack meets the beautiful Princess Isabelle whom he rescues her from ruffians. He returns home only with a handful of beans given to him by a monk who claimed they were sacred but that does little to impress his uncle who tosses them away. In the night the Princess arrives having run off to keep from marrying Roderick who is clearly only interested in becoming king. Soon the beans take root with a giant stalk carrying away the princess and Jack's house. He soon sets off on an adventure with the king's guards to rescue the princess only to find that a mythical land filled with giants really exists. Written bygarykmcd

Jack the Giant Slayer (2013) Review by didonatope
It's pretty much a guarantee that if you grew up with fairy tales, youwould certainly know the story of Jack and The Beanstalk. I know Ihave; when I was a kid, this story was everywhere. I saw it played outby Mickey Mouse in the "Fun and Fancy Free," by Snoopy in "The CharlieBrown and Snoopy Show," and by Bugs Bunny in "Jack Wabbit and TheBeanstalk." The tale is a timeless child's fantasy story, and for thatalone, this movie mostly succeeds.

After the opening credits, the film opens with an introduction of ourtwo main characters: Jack (played by Nicholas Hoult, fresh off his rolein last month's "Warm Bodies") and princess Isabelle (played by ElanorTomlinson). Just like in the original fairy tale, Jack is a poor farmhand who is tricked into trading valuable livestock (in this movie it'sa horse rather than a cow) for supposed "magic beans." PrincessIsabelle, however is pretty much the textbook definition of a Disneyprincess. Her mother is dead, her father is an over-protective king whowants her to marry someone she doesn't like, she's tired of her boringlife in the palace and dreams of adventure. When I first came acrossthis character, I immediately planned on chastising her as extremelyclichéd in this review. However, once I began watching this in thecontext of a kids movie, I found this to be much more tolerable. Thoughin a 2013-released film, it still feels kind of dated.

If you're watching this expecting another "Hansel and Gretel: WitchHunters" will be disappointed. This movie is pretty family-friendlyoverall and has a light hearted attitude throughout. Despite thisfilm's hefty body count, the characters consistently joke around andget themselves into shenanigans. It could very well be irritating tothose expecting a more mature fantasy based on the rating andadvertising, as it does admittedly feel too silly at times. However, asa family film, the combination of violence and silliness makes itsomewhat a fusion of the family films of the 80's and 90'srespectively.

The rest of the characters are decently developed, including thesinister Lord Roderick (played by Stanley Tucci) and the noble knightElmont (played by Ewan McGreggor). No character was given that muchdevelopment, which I actually didn't really mind. I knew enough abouteach character, and in a fast-paced fairy tale like this, keeping theplot moving and interesting were the most important aspects.

The giants were pretty interesting too. In a way, they reminded me ofthe trolls in last year's "The Hobbit: an Unexpected Journey," as theyare excessively gross, uncivilized and high-tempered. I'm certain thatkids will get a laugh out of their flatulent, booger-eating ways. I wasinitially concerned that this film would just portray them asunstoppable villains with no personality. Instead, the film fleshesthem out a bit and gives them a motive for their actions. I certainlywouldn't mind a prequel film giving more meat to their hatred formankind.

The cast gives their all, especially Nicholas Hoult. Here he brings toJack the same charm and timidity he gave to R in "Warm Bodies." I feelthat he he has the capability and likability to carry a movie as thelead role, and I look forward to his future endeavors next year.

"Jack The Giant Slayer" will reasonably divide critics and audiences,but if I had kids, I would have no problem taking them to see this.It's a fun little adventure that kids and open-minded adults will get akick out of.

Jack the Giant Slayer (2013) Review by Sean H-. (cornflakeboy20) from United States
In this retelling of Jack and the Beanstalk, the title character and arunaway princess are thrust into the sky when vines sprouting from themagic beans vault Jack's cabin into the sky. A race of giants exiledthere by the power of a magic crown plots to return below and recapturethe human kingdom. The King sends a rescue party of his knights and theprincess's evil fiancé to rescue the princess, and the evil prince usesthe magical crown in an attempt to seize the power of the giants totake over the kingdom.

It was refreshing to find a non ironic, non meta straightforwardtelling of this story, with some elements of charm and humor. The 3D isfairly unspectacular, although there are great sequences, such as thecollapse of the vine which causes catastrophic damage below. The bodycount, for a family film, is quite high, surpassing some of the laterHarry Potter movies. It is also notable that there are virtually nofemales in either the giants' or human's realm. The cast is fine, andNicholas Hoult makes a fine Jack, and brings more life and personalityto the role than he did earlier this year with "Warm Bodies."

Most elements of the film work quite well and it has the potential towork alongside dark family fare like "The Never Ending Story" or "TheDark Crystal."

Jack the Giant Slayer (2013) Review by devo-nc from Canada
I was pleasantly surprised by this fairy tale type movie. DirectorBryan Singer and his fellow cast and crew members came through andpulled something that remains an average flick for our entertainment. Iam not crazy about this movie, it just attains to being a decent flick.It seemed that if it went any further wasting time or spending time ondevelopment the cheesiness would have kicked in. But in Jack the GiantSlayer the enjoyment comes out of the build-up and freight of thesehuge giants. There are many scenes that had my heart racing and jawdropped in excitement. Much as it were in Jurassic Park as to how itbuilt up the suspense and brought awe out of the visuals, this moviedoes much of the same. Along the way characters that simply just appearhave connection to the audience and bring a level of authenticity thatis good enough for even just a second. In the end Jack the Giant Slayeris made for fun and makes the popcorn go down smoothly.
