      In This Peter Jackson Produced, book-to-film adaptation of the same name by Phillip Reeve, A mysterious young woman named Hester Shaw (Hilmar) stops a man who leads a predatory city on wheels, from carrying out his latest evil plan. Meanwhile, she teams up with Tom Natsworthy (Sheehan), and outcast from london, and Anna Fang, an outlaw, and they help her stop the man. It's not a bad movie, as in matter of fact, I liked it. 

     Don't always rely on the reviews, everyone has their own opinions on things such as movies, for example. I've look at a lot of reviews for this film on Youtube, and not all of them were good. In fact, most of the reviewers were just trashing the movie! Parents, this might be a little violent for your little ones, and your teens, if they really like the book this movie is based on, they might like it. I know I sure did! In fact, I think I'm gonna buy the book!
