Games Radar: The Spiderwick Chronicles Review

Wandering back and forth through the same areas to collect one silly object after another will drive you "This is Sparta" raving mad, especially when you realize that you have to collect every fairy sprite and finish every last side quest just to see how the story ends.

You could just watch that in its entirety in a quarter of the time it'd take you to play this game (and you'd have more fun).
