Plot
When young farmhand Jack (Nicholas Hoult) unwittingly opens a portal between his realm and a race of giants, it rekindles an ancient war. Roaming Earth for the first time in centuries, the fearsome giants seek to reclaim the land they lost long ago. Jack has to face an army of foes that he thought existed only in legend, but through his arduous fight for the kingdom and its people, he may win the love of a brave princess, perhaps becoming a legend himself.

Good Qualities

 * 1) Marvelous acting including Stanley Tucci, Bill Nighy, Nicolas Hoult and John Kassir.
 * 2) Jack is courageous and cunning as he puts plans together like staying out of sight from the Giants in Gantua and putting the last bean into General Fallon's mouth.
 * 3) Stanley Tucci did extremely well with his British accent and his role as Roderick.
 * 4) Bill Nighy's voice as General Fallon was well chosen.
 * 5) Decent cinematography.
 * 6) Great musical score, coming of John Ottoman.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Bland and impersonal story that changed most of the fairy tale's material like replacing Jack's mother with his uncle.
 * 2) King Brahmwell can sometimes be unlikeable when he tried to have her daughter, Isabelle to grow up and not act like an explorer.
 * 3) The uncanny valley on the giants looks obvious, through that may have been due to Digital Domain's bankruptcy during production.
