This movie was all about kick-back, relax and enjoy your childhood once again. Adorable movie.

Movie Review: "The BFG" (2016)This kindly-received children book adaptation by "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial" (1982) screenwriter Melissa Mathison (1950-2015) gets upscaled by director Steven Spielberg to an over-whelming feast of digital motion-capture extravaganza with leading actor Mark Rylance in motion-capturing suit as a reluctant, remotely-living Giant in the twilight zone of a rural English landscape in a cave full of tiny inventions, a miniature ship and rocking chair feelings before befriending an 11-year-old girl Sophie from the Real world, lying awake in an orphanage at night captured in moody cinematography by long-time Spielberg-protége lighting cameraman Janusz Kaminski, who together with the director and production designer Rick Carter, supported by highly-talented visual effects supervisor Robert Stromberg, known for directing "Maleficent" starring Angelina Jolie for Walt Disney Pictures in 2014, deliver the deep-diving journey of Sophie into the world of mystic giants, where the big-friendly one called just "The BFG" lacks courage to fight off his man-eating relatives.The original book by author Roald Dahl (1916-1990), published in 1982, creates magic "The BFG" hiding in tight-spotted allies at night in dead-quiet streets of surburban London, to give and take away street-lights spending dreamy kids a vision of a world beyond the ordinary, when Steven Spielberg's screen version shares pleasant scenes of quality motion picture entertainment in an over-long, at times back-and-forth swinging suspense-distracting editorial between slight winks of teen horror in the beginning, when the Giant world scenario gives in to emotionally-distant computer-generated-imagery (CGI), when the slapstick finale furioso at Present world in Buckingham Palace interiors, featuring actress Penelope Wilton as all-too-amused interpretation of Queen Elizabeth II and her assistant Mary, performed by unmotivated, yet professional actress Rebecca Hall, can hardly convince themselves to let "The BFG" pass with green-ale smuggling table manners of another pair of Western-culture bathroom jokes.This digial animation live-action combiner of a children feature film produced by Amblin Entertainment with an one-time exclusive distribution deal through Walt Disney Pictures had the chance to be a modern classic for kids as their parents alike; unfortunately "The BFG" can only be enjoyed fully with acknowledgment of another leap of splendid digital animation achievements, opening the world of limitless imagination for future filmmakers; but the movie's editorial pace of a 110 minutes and some indecisive directions within the all-too plain, at times blank emotional states of main character Sophie leave most children out in the cold.

The live-action adaptation of The BFG sees Steven Spielberg return to making family films, a special-effects heavy film that is geared towards younger children despite it undertones involving cannibalism.Sophie (Ruth Barnhill) is an orphan in London who ends up being taken by a giant (Mark Rylance) after seeing him at 3 in the morning. In the land of giants Sophie discovers that the giant known as the Big Friendly Giant captures dreams so he can give them to people in the UK and is bullied by the other giants. With the giants posing a threat to the children of Britain Sophie and the BFG goes to the Queen of England (Penelope Wilton) to warn her.The BFG is a slapstick-heavy film, having nut-shots, smiley vegetables and show pleasure with green gassy farts. It's a film where even the Queen farts. It is a kid-friendly comedy especially for children who enjoy that try of humour but there isn't so much for adults.Spielberg does add a level of whimsy and wonder particularly when The BFG enter into a world where he captures dreams and then gives a family happy dreams. This is done through the colours and John Williams' score and there is a great amount of detail like in the BFG's home. Some great moments are when the camera follows Sophie around a location when she is avoiding being seen by the other giants. Yet some of the CGI for the giants falls into the uncanny valley territory.The BFG has a great cast and Barnhill is a revelation as Sophie, being forceful when needed and performed well considering she would have been working mostly with a green screen. Rylance worked well with Spielberg in Bridge of Spies and he offers a gentleness as the BFG. Jermaine Clement was unrecognisable as the leader of the giants and Wilton is perfectly regal as The Queen. The film even has Rebecca Hall as the Queen's assistant and has connection with Sophie.The BFG is a film that children will easily enjoy but as their get older will not look back at it as fondly.

I recently saw the BFG by Steven Spielberg it is a fantasy and adventure film which was produced by Kennedye and Marsall in 2016 and lasted 1h 57min. This movie is set in American it tells the story of BFG played by Mark Rylance the story begins An orphan little girl befriends a benevolent giant who takes her to Giant Country, where they attempt to stop the man-eating giants that are invading the human world. I personally think it's phenomenal. I wold recommend it because the script is bright.
