Saw this after reading the book in the middle school
I'm surprised how much I liked this give it a go you will be surprised too
great film adaptation of the book! one of my fave movies as a kid
Super cool set design and interesting post-apocalyptic world. The story is very simple and the clearly adult actor of Doon threw me off.
I really liked it...the adventurous is amazing in this movie
Good movie. My kids had to watch this movie for a school project. The kind of homework I like to help out with. Solid movie
Just awful. This movie insults the intelligence of the viewers. It’s even worse if you’ve read (and liked) the book.
Featuring decent production & a great supporting cast(tho sadly misused),"City Of Ember" starts out promising but ends up forgetable 5.5/10
This film kickstarted my love for fantasy films as a child. No matter how many times I watch it, it never ceases to amaze
It keeps the same wondrous tone of the book while translating well onto screen.
