Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children

[Drunk Monk]

Finally saw this. Enjoyed it.  Very Burton, although the holothingers felt poached from Del Toro, so derivative, not as visionary or original, a tad played out. It was the X-men if they were welsh kids and Prof X was a hawt peregrine (trying to do a Bonham-Carter impersonation here).  Got a bit confused about whether it all worked out plotwise in the end but didn't care.  I wouldn't overly recommend this as some great film, but I didn't bail on it, mostly because of the visuals.

And I stand behind Samuel L.  He's muthafeckin great in this.  Like always.

No sword fights but Samuel turns his hand into a muthafeckin axe.  A mutha feckin AXE!
