★ 7.5/10

Enjoying story inspired in 4 of the major "legends" for kids in the anglosaxon culture. Great animation and development of characters for a simple and clean story with the needed touches of humor and action.

The Sandman. The Easter Bunny. The Tooth Fairy. Santa Claus. You know their names.

Jack and the Bogeyman share a common problem: they're not believed in anymore, and have faded from public view.

A delightful movie for children and families. Interesting twists on some of the figures of childhood, however, they are very likable characters.

Another Dreamworks hit, sure to entertain the family.
