bad dialogue and my problems with story
8 December 2021
There is a Magic Diamond which grants one wish for every person who holds it in the moonlight. Little urchin Marco steals it from his vampire lord who wishes to walk in sunlight. Meanwhile, Captain Sabertooth is searching for the diamond with two little kids.

I don't know anything about Captain Sabertooth. Apparently, he's a Norwegian children's character and there are many previous iterations. The animation here is TV level. It's pretty good for that. The writing is somewhat clunky. It's obvious that the dialogue has been translated. It could be better. It could be much better. Then there is my confusion. Again, I start off not knowing anything about this material. The movie begins with the diamond, the vampire, and Marco. Quite frankly, I assumed that the vampire would be known as Captain Sabertooth. He's got the teeth for the name. In addition, there is a doppelganger situation which only multiples the confusing situation. I was expecting a movie about Marco escaping the vampiric Captain Sabertooth. This may be only for Norwegian fans.
