Excellent adaptation. Scipio impresses.
Cornelia Funke is my favourite author, due to her natural characters, rich imagination & the vivid scenes she paints. (In the imagination.) Yet I had no idea The Thief Lord was being made & only discovered by chance that it was on release. Very minimal publicity indeed compared to the over-hyped Harry Potter films. As a fan I wondered if it had suffered under the film-makers’ knife. Whether it had been drastically altered. Well, there is occasional alteration & several scenes cut, but otherwise one of the more faithful adaptations. I was impressed by Scipio in particular, but I thought everyone was good. The adults were a little OTT, but not bad. Archers fans will recognise the distinctive voice of “Lynda Snell” (Carol Boyd) as the aunt. The score is dramatic & the effects wondrous. I’d rather see this than Harry Potter any day. Thief Lord has genuine heart & doesn’t rely on constant flash & show. It’s real storytelling for a change. It’s just a shame it will be lost beneath the heavyweights of X3 & The Wild. 9/10
The Thief Lord…10 out of 10
the movie ‘The Thief Lord” was an exciting tale of two boys, Prosper and Bo, who are orphans. their aunt decides to take in Bo and sends Prosper to and orphanage. the two try to stay together and go to their mothers favorite place, Venice. while there, they happen upon a teenage boy, Scipio, who calls himself the thief lord. he takes care of Prosper, Bo,and his friends Hornet, Riccio, and Mosca. Life is good for the little thieves until they are chased by a detective, Victor. as they all help each other, the magic of the city unfolds and secrets become revealed. a “spinning” twist turns this story into a delightful adventure.i loved this movie and was quite pleased when it followed the books plot. those of you who feel in love with the characters can fall in love with them all over again. a few scenes from the book are missing, but over all it is one of Funke’s masterpieces. actually i read the book before i found out it was a movie and immediately feel in love with it! although my friends refuse to watch it (i am completely obsessed) my family found it rather enjoyable and a good movie. i think that its a shame that it didn’t get a lot of publicity, but even without it anyone who watches The Thief Lord is bound to love it!!!!
