The Spiderwick Chronicles
Listen now
Description
Brenna and Joe are back in fantasy territory with the first five books in Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black's The Spiderwick Chronicles, as well the 2008 adaptation from Daniel Waters.
We're mixed on lead Freddie Highmore's success playing twins, though we both like Sarah Bolger's Mallory, the use of fencing and Brenna even likes the CGI!
Plus: innocuous voice casting, the film's horrifying end, and a mini tangent about Hollywood nepotism and privilege.
