What critics say influenced Slumberland

Time Bandits poster
Frankly, the one film that has come the closest to capturing McCay’s blend of strikingly hallucinatory imagery and ambitious storytelling to date is the Terry Gilliam classic “Time Bandits,” right down to McCay’s willingness to deal with darker themes within his wild narratives.

Once in a while we get occasional hits like Harry Potter , Where the Wild Things Are , The NeverEnding Story , The Chronicles of Narnia, and more.

A highlight of the marketing campaign, and appropriately so, is Jason Momoa as the 9-foot-tall outlaw Flip, who looks like a faun from The Chronicles of Narnia if he were a hobo.

Not for lack of trying, making fantasy movies targeted at youngsters isn’t easy, but one wonders how Lawrence, director of “I Am Legend,” “Constantine,” and “The Hunger Games,” stumbled upon this “Inception” for elementary schoolers.

Director Francis Lawrence has always had a keen visual eye, stretching back to Constantine, I Am Legend, Like Water for Elephants, and The Hunger Games.

C’era tanta curiosità per vedere Jason Momoa in un ruolo inedito, ma anche per la regia di Francis Lawrence, famoso per aver diretto Io sono leggenda , Constantine e diversi film di Hunger Games.
Novac se u kadru vidi i njime barata Francis Lawrence (“Voda za slonove”, “Crveni vrabac”), redatelj specijaliziran za “big budget” filmove kao što su “Constantine”, “Ja sam legenda” i tri dijela serijala “Igre gladi” – “Plamen”, “Šojka rugalica 1” i “Šojka rugalica 2”.
