This is a horror film with kids in it! We watched with our 8 year old daughter and she had nightmares! Definitely not a family movie night type.... Would absolutely not recommend for family with kids under 12.

I really didn't know what to think about this when I started to watch this, but I found some good things in this. Its also based off the book that I might check out.

I like the plot, the acting and the visuals of the stories they show also the Nightbook stories were interesting.

The rest is clearly a scary movie that kids can watch and probably can be scared by the visuals and the monsters shown through out.

But I will give credit to the creepy and disturbing scenes and imagery they got away with on the monsters and the witch, even the 3rd act was disturbing.

In the end its a creepy kids movie that kids can tolerate, but also it has creepy imagery and disturbing scenes that they can enjoy.

Another total CGI fest of a kid's film. An annoying geeky kid is trapped in a witch's apartment for the entire duration and has to narrate stories to her. Attacks by CGI cats, demons, lots of goo and slime and CGI monsters. Very similar to the ilk of the recent GOOSEBUMPS and definitely aimed at 5-10 year olds. Krysten Ritter shows no restraint in her hamminess.
