Based on the book by Roald Dahl.

Originally released as a motion picture in 2016.

MPAA rating: PG; for action/peril, some scary moments and brief rude humor.

It tells the imaginative story of a young girl and the Giant who introduces her to the wonders and perils of Giant Country. The BFG, while a giant himself, is a Big Friendly Giant and nothing like the other inhabitants of Giant Country. Standing 24-feet tall with enormous ears and a keen sense of smell, he is endearingly dim-witted and keeps to himself for the most part.

Bonus extra: Gobblefunk: the wonderful words of the BFG; Melissa Mathison: a tribute.
