An amazing adventure of the 5 children and IT

4 stars

18 Nov 2019

5 children and IT was a film based in the First World War and the children’s father has been sent out to war as a pilot and their mother a nurse,

Things I liked about the movie: I liked the way the actors portrayed the children especially the actor of their uncle he’s a bid mad which I think makes it a funny character I also loved the plot as well and it’s very creative.

Improvements that could’ve been made:even though the movie was great I think there could be some improvements to it I think there could have been more music in it even in the background ,but other than that it’s fine.

Let’s talk plot: The movie was based around 1914 to 1918 so about 4 years ,the children’s names were Cyril ,Anthea,Jane,Robert, and their baby brother. the children were evacuated to their uncles mansion with their cousin and the maid.They where told not to go into the greenhouse but if you know children well....there curious and the children wondered why they weren’t allowed in there .So one day they went in and found a secret door! Behind the door they found a hidden passage way and once they followed it they came to a beach were they found a sand fairy that would grant them any wish until sunset.

Did I like the film?: yes I did like the film 4/5 stars from me thanks for reading my review hope you consider watching the movie now!
