“The Secret Garden” (** out of four) was a graceless adaptation of Francis Hodgson Burnett’s classic novel about a young girl (Dixie Egerickx) sent to live with her strict uncle (Colin Firth) and discovers a magical garden hidden at his estate of which has wonders and powers no one could ever imagine. Fourth film version of this story is handsomely mounted but story lacks momentum and is never as magical or compelling as it was on the stage. Some nice moments towards the end brighten things up but it’s overall pretty stuffy and blah. Young girls and hardcore fans of Burnett may like this more.
