I loved the book and while parts of the movie lived up to the book some fell short. Changing the characters and a lot of the plot didn’t really do it for me. My favorite parts were the visuals, costumes, set decor. The CGI skeletons were mid and the relationships between the characters didn’t always make sense. Like why did Jake and Emma fall in love so quickly? The monsters were scary and I loved when Mrs. Peregrine morphed into a falcon. The book is just better than the movie man.

Ugh. I liked the humorous moments including Jacob Batalon playing the same character he did in Spiderman. The twist in the middle was unexpected and great. The bad guys were genuinely scary. I liked the main character but I still kinda…
