Nicholas Nickleby (2002)

Synopsis: After the death of his father, a boy and his mother and sister seek the care of an evil uncle, who sends him to work at a boarding school. 

Appraisal: Lacklustre adaptation of the Dickens novel, that would benefit from a better script (particularly in the beginning of the film), a more imaginative mise-en-scene, and a less wooden lead. 

Rating: 39
