The trick to classic stories that have been done in one form or another, you need to change the POV. That's what made such ventures like Wicked or the Princess Bride successful.

Something Fassbender said about actual sets vs CGI: with a screen, you're rolling the dice that you get the right intensity of the reaction right. A set you can respond to with good timing.

this got 52% on RottenTomatoes 'It's enthusiastically acted and reasonably fun, but Jack the Giant Slayer is also overwhelmed by digital effects and a bland, impersonal story'.

pretty straightforward and really no surprises
it's one big giant action fantasy taken from the old fairy tale of Jack and The Beanstalk
the acting is quite phenomenal to be candid, these actors know what they're doing with this material
I really like Ian McShane, Ewan McGregor and Nicholas Hoult even the princess by Tomlinson
the action and the special effects kick so much ass even if it is violent for little children
it never takes a breath which is refreshing since the boredom never sinks in
I just didn't feel for anyone and the movie itself is almost hollow and devoid of any humanity
but for an afternoon 'Jack The Giant Slayer' is a passable feat

again the princess is cute but not insanely hot

I say if you want fairy tale stories, I just say whatever Hollywood makes, Once Upon a Time does better:

Giants: Check

Little Red Ridinghood AND Snowwhite: Check Check

Fucking Hansal and Gretal WITH the Evil Queen of Snowwhite: Check mate!
