** It's one of those absurd plot points that Roald Dahl does. At least the movie rectifies that in some form by having the rhino be a demonic cloud.

* During the climax, once James stands up to his aunts and Sponge and Spiker grab fire axes to kill him, why don't the police try to restrain them, especially the officer who protected James since his arrival? All that the cops do is ask the onlookers to stay back, turning their backs on a situation that could have possibly ended with James’s death had the insects not arrived to rescue him.
