‘Inkheart’

Intriguing film about a man (Brendan Fraser) who can read characters “out” of books, bringing them to life, is ultimately a little too confusing and hard to follow to fully satisfy. Fraser is fine. Helen Mirren, as his crusty aunt, is better, and Eliza Bennett gives young girls a character to root for. Based on a popular novel. (PG - 106 minutes) V.
