Skip it. Jack the Giant Slayer is a forgettable fantasy actioner that tries to be fun but lands squarely in the middle of the road—decent CGI can't rescue a paint-by-numbers plot about a farmboy, a princess, and giant monsters. If you're craving fantasy adventure, literally any of the Lord of the Rings films or even Stardust will give you way more magic and charm.

Plot

The story of an ancient war that is reignited when a young farmhand unwittingly opens a gateway between our world and a fearsome race of giants. Unleashed on the Earth for the first time in centuries, the giants strive to reclaim the land they once lost, forcing the young man, Jack into the battle of his life to stop them. Fighting for a kingdom, its people, and the love of a brave princess, he comes face to face with the unstoppable warriors he thought only existed in legend–and gets the chance to become a legend himself.

Director: Bryan Singer

Cast: Nicholas Hoult, Eleanor Tomlinson, Ewan McGregor, Stanley Tucci, Ian McShane
