-
The Spiderwick Chronicles isn’t scary enough or wonderous enough to hold our interest, and we get the feeling that kids who watch the show will seek out other shows that are either scarier or more whimsical.
-
Instead of featuring a menagerie of fey beings, it focuses on self-aware Internet humor and teen angst from an aged-up cast and darker tone. That may set the show apart from its source material in ways that are sometimes interesting, but it only rarely feels like magic.
-
Though the show stretches across eight 45-minute episodes, diving into countless details and fantastical beings, its pacing often stalls, leading to a humdrum tone instead of a display frenzied with action. Additionally, despite aging the characters up for this adaptation, the setting and special effects aren’t creepy or dazzling enough to keep a teen audience engaged.
