Steven Spielberg's first collaboration with Disney is a heartwarming adaptation of Roald Dah's children's classic The BFG. Mark Rylance plays the gentle giant and newcomer Ruby Barnhill is his feisty young companion. The CGI effects are cartoon-like yet the detail and interaction with the human characters is surprisingly effective. It's perfectly suitable for families that want something more relaxed than manic. The mood is classic Spielberg mystery and fantasy melded together with the right touch of whimsical charm.
