Storming good fun!
I saw this on the first day release and after reading the book couldnt wait to see some of the action scenes. Plenty of great sequences and quite a few not to be found in Horrowitz's pages. The bonus was the humour and the way the 'baddies' and 'goodies' sent themselves up. It didnt take itself too seriously and this kept a balance of teen espionage and tongue in cheek gags. Bill Nighy demonstrated this with just his eye-brows!
Well worth a watch for young and old.
superb
my children loved this dvd. If you have not read any of the Alex Rider books, then they are sort of like James Bond.
The main difference is that Alex Rider is a teenager.
Alex is a teenage spy who lives in Chelsea and he also works part time for MI6.
He is linked with this association, because of his father who worked for them previously.
When Alex Rider's uncle dies, it is up to him to finish his mission off. A suspiciously charitable billionaire, wants to donate a brand new computer, called the Stormbreaker to every school in the country.
the film is action packed, with a lot of fight scenes, when Alex goes undercover at Sayle's headquarters to investigate the computer 'the Stormbreaker'. it even includes Alex walking down a wall backwar...
