I picked up the 90 minute tape while garage sale shopping today. It looked like a decent kids film, so I grabbed it. Well, to make it short, it could have been much better. I know they were probably on a tight budget, but it would have payed off in the end if they bothered to get child actors that could actually act. Both of them act like their reading off of cue cards, and show no emotion whatsoever.
Other then that, a neat story for a kid's film, despite low production values. We are supposed to believe that Blizzard Island is dying, but everything on the island is very green. It looks like that they used a home camera to film this, and the puppets are no Muppets.
Rent it, barrow it, check it out, but don't buy it.
