    "'The Spiderwick Chronicles' is a terrific entertainment for the whole family, except those below a certain age, who are likely to be scared out of their wits." - Roger EbertRogerEbert.com: The Spiderwick Chronicles(February 14, 2008)

    "The characters lack shadings - Nolte's ogre is loud but uninteresting - and the tone of the fantasy world isn't witty, like Harry Potter's, or satirical, like Lemony Snicket's. It's all just silly." - New York PostNew York Post: Goblin Fable, Warts and All, Falls Short(February 14, 2008)
