		Alex was always strongly encouraged by his uncle to indulge in extreme sports like martial arts and scuba diving.
		The entire Alex Rider franchise most closely resembles the Harry Potter series, but when you look at the numbers, the popularity of Horowitz’s books is almost negligible when compared to J.K. Rowling’s immensely admired novels.
		The Alex Rider series appears to have all the necessary, larger than life adventures, but I fear that it might focus excessively on implausible action without properly developing the characters.

	Stormbreaker (2006) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Alex Rider, played superbly by Alex Pettyfer, is very believable as a school kid thrown into the deep end by Bill Nighy who hams it up brilliantly as spymaster Alan Blunt.
		Alex Rider is a deadly weapon on two legs as you'll see as the film progresses.
		There's lots of action, some love interest, but that's not overplayed and although some of the evil characters look as if they've been loaned out from Cirque Du Soleil, including Micky Rourke, they play their parts as they should be, comically but with a twist of evil thrown in.
