Colours & Tinsels Galore - BUT Fails to Connect
1 December 2020
Another glammed-up fantasy movie that's far far from fantastic - unfortunately, as usual, all the expense and efforts went into the glam sets, effects and dance choreography, and good scripting and story telling just dumped aside in the dust heap.

A good cast wasted on poorly developed characters mouthing yesterday's tacky common dialogues, some clearly in the zone of laughable unfunny garbage - eg. 'love closes the wave function' - eeek!

None of the songs are worth remembering, lacking in originality and a worthy tune.

Loopholes abound and characters behaving in ways that are meaningless and ludicrous, with baseless motivation that makes you go 'huh?'

And isn't this supposed to be a family children's movie? So what's with the lascivious gyrating widow out to hook her next lay?

Ricky Martin's voice over is surprisingly good - possibly the only highlight of this empty glitter. But then as a character that too falls into the throw-away heap.

An effort that's all about technical production pizazz ... fullstop. 😟
