They made a film of theThief Lord!!!

[Frenchgirl]

I had no idea!!! The book has been a big hit with dd, and I just found out whilst checking what's on at the cinema that they made a film of it coming out on Friday!
So, as it hasn't been publicised at all, thought you might be interested, it sounds good from the few reviews I've read

.

well at least the cinemas won't be crowded

Just heard it being reviewed on the radio - what is it about? (caught the end of the review - something about a detective, and children growing up fast and adults going back to childhood - not sure I really understood)

I thought the book was great, if a little odd towards the end. Ds1 read the first 50 pp or so and didn't like it - which is unusual for him.

I might take them to see the film though. Has anyone seen it?

roisin the film is OK, but not that great....
dd loved the book and enjoyed the film though!

I read this and really enjoyed it.
What age is the film geared at?

dd is almost 7, perfect for her and older children

Thanks Frenchgirl, ds is 8 - so it looks like he's about the right age.
