DADDY: What did you think of the movie? 

LILLY: I thought it could be better. It was too long.

DADDY: It did take a bit to get going but it was fun when they got to the giants land Gantua.

LILLY: Yes. I think Movie World should have a beanstalk ride.

DADDY: I agree.

DADDY: Who was your favourite character?

DADDY: What was your favourite moment? 

LILLY: I thought it was good when the beanstalk grew out of the giant and he died.

DADDY: It was quite a violent film, was it too much for you?

LILLY: Every time a giant killed someone I couldn't look.

DADDY: They weren't very nice chaps. I liked the bit when the giant made sausage rolls out of whole pigs and people. It made me feel quite hungry.

LILLY: Lol!

DADDY: Would you recommend it to your friends?

LILLY: Yes but it might be too violent for some of them.

DADDY: How many stars would you give it?

LILLY: Five out of ten because I didn't think it was that good.
