Continuity: When Ridley is in the part of the maze with the corridor of fire, he sees the oval shaped exit quickly closing and pauses to prepare to jump through it. When he looks again, the exit has not closed further, but is actually larger than when he looked earlier.

It is unbelievable how this movie could have been created with such good actors and so much money, but such a bad script and directing.
Dialogues are painfully bad in this movie, as is the story itself.
The acting is also below any standard you would expect from such an expensive movie. Jeremy Irons was especially shocking, his performance was very pathetic and flat, as if this would be a bad movie for three year olds. That was not acting, that was a torment ! I cried every time he appeared on the screen.
Thora Birch was also far, far below her level in 'American Beauty', obviously unable to tell how one should put a little life into her bad dialogue and flat character, and somehow even thinking that that was her own fault.
If at all, the thief Snails (Marlon Wayans from Scary Movie) had quite some good moments in his slapstick scenes, the only good moments in the whole movie. Unfortunately they don't last long. Wayans seems to have a talent to shine even in the worst movies, however.
The performance of the main actor was also bad. His dull and cheap sunnyboy behavior really nerved me, and I saw absolutely no reason for his 'being special', but far more for 'being untalented'.
The effects where better than the story, but really not that exciting either.
Some people say fantasy is about stereotypes, but that doesnt mean you can forget all rules how to make up a good story ! This story was not worth getting on the screen. This story was also not worth getting such good actors and effects. This story was nothing but crap !
And I can't believe that Jeremy Irons and Thora Birch are such bad actors, they have proven they can do far, far better ! I can only guess it must have been the director who forced them to do such bad performances.
Definitely not recommended for anyone except maybe children below ten. Oh wait, they're not allowed ? No loss.
