An adventure of gigantic proportionsJack and the Beanstalk (2010) is a family movie based on the classic fairy-tale that most of us would have read during our childhood days.
Jack must perform a heroic deed; if he fails, he won't become a hero. As he seeks for ways to do so, he trades his most valuable possession for a handful of magical beans and a book that records his adventures.
Jack is accompanied by Grayson (formerly a goose). Together, they climb the magical beanstalk to recover Destiny's Harp from the evil Giant in the sky.
Along their way, they meet Jillian, a fearless young girl who seems to be very earnest to help them but who just may have a hidden agenda.
The most interesting "revelation" of this movie is that Jillian is played by Chloë Grace Moretz. She's Mindy Macready or Hit Girl in Kick Ass (2010). In Jack and the Beanstalk, she's showing off her martial arts skills as well, but only for 5 minutes and with comical effects because this is supposed to be a family movie. :)
