The House with a Clock in Its Walls (2018)

 

A young orphan named Lewis Barnavelt aids his magical uncle in locating a clock with the power to bring about the end of the world.

Gore master Eli Roth directs a PG-rated film and, indeed it's very PG: an enjoyable, but made-for-children Gothic adventure in a spooky fantasy house; Jack Black and Cate Blanchett seemed to have had fun with their roles.
