...is an excellent little dramedic fable. The story is the oft told it's-not-how-you-look-but-who-you-are done with tons of offbeat elan and good acting. I've always enjoyed Cristina Ricci and she gives a great performance here as a girl born with a pig's snout for a nose and James McAvoy is equal to her performance as a suitor. This is one the whole family can enjoy, I highly recommend it.

Saw it on the payperview last night...was pleasantly surprised. It felt a little like a cross between a Tim Burton film and Notting Hill.
