Away with words…
The Mummy star Brendan Fraser does what he does best, playing a likeable everyman in yet another fantasy action adventure. This time round he’s Mo Folchart, whose talents as a Silvertongue – which give him the ability to bring books to life just by reading them out loud – result in tragedy when his wife Resa (Guillory) is swallowed into the novel Inkheart. For years Mo and his young daughter Meggie (Bennett) search for the book so as to reunite their family, but when they finally come across it they realise they must do battle with the story’s eclectic cast of characters if they are ever to rescue Resa.
