Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker – Why Did the Film Fail to Launch a Movie Franchise? 03 June 2020 Den of Geek There's a sense that history is repeating itself right now, with our entertainment overlords once again deciding that a live-action adaptation of Anthony Horowitz 's Alex Rider novels is exactly what we need. But long before the upcoming Amazon Prime series was a twinkle in anybody's eye, a feature-length film starring some high-profile British actors arrived in cinemas in 2006. That film was Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker. A fairly faithful adaptation of the first book in Horowitz's series, with a few added action scenes and beefed out roles for the supporting players, the Stormbreaker movie was an inoffensive way to spend a brisk 93 minutes. The companies that invested in the film – which included The Weinstein Company in the Us, and Mpc, Samuelson Productions and Isle Of Man Film in the UK – presumably went into the production of the movie hoping to spark an on-going film franchise.

Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2016 Verified Purchase The Vanishing Prairie is one of my favorite movies of all time. Mind you I was 10 years old when I first saw it in the theatre. Magnificent nature photography! Thoroughly educational. Funny and entertaining. The film version was produced to Disney's legendary high artistic standards in Cinemascope and Technicolor. Unfortunately this is a lousy print that looks like it was ported from a VHS cassette tape. It was formatted for television and the sharpness of the image is not cinematic quality. I made the mistake of buying the "HD" version which I doubt is any better than the cheaper SD version. If you take a high def photo of a newspaper photo, the result is still a newspaper photo! I was really not disappointed otherwise. I just look forward to the unlikely possibility that someday someone will see this movie to be the masterpiece that it is and do a digitally remastered version from an original print.
