Like the recent St Trinian's films, this live-action travesty of Francesca Simon's storybooks has the peculiarly British, sub-panto amateurishness of a project that's hoping to get away with its nonsensical script, substandard effects and clunky acting, purely because it's loud and zany and it's got a cameo from a member of Girls Aloud.
Still, at least Henry (Theo Stevenson) himself is an authentically obnoxious little git.
