Miss Peregrine's School for Peculiar Children

In some ways, a softer version of Dr. Xavier's school for the X-Men. At least, less explicitly violent visually. But in other ways, this is still pretty scary. We follow Jacob on a trip with his dad, where he discovers a special school. Actually, he discovers a house that is full of kids with special powers. And he discovers that he too has powers. And of course, he is the one that is able to save the kids from the scary monsters. A fun mixture between carefree kids and powerful monster hunters that mixes these worlds seamlessly. Nicely done.

4 stars (out of 5)
