Well.. just no... Teenage movie at best
2 January 2024
I'm writing this review only because Jason Schwartzman deserves to be mentioned. In his role he is just brilliant, so thanks for at least his performance.

The casting for Snow was also not bad, but the rest of the actors can be forgotten. Above all, we couldn't stand the calling of 'Lucy Gray' after what felt like the 100th time.

We're generally not big fans of singing in movies, but these songs were placed so tactlessly that it felt like imitating a Disney film. The only suspenseful part is in the last section of the movie - precisely when it ends.! It seems like the whole movie is made for teenagers. Overexplained and repetitive scenes dominate. We're glad we didn't watch the film in the cinema.

Let down by story, but nice costumes
6 November 2023
I don't understand all the fuss about this series. In my opinion there was hardly any chemistry between the protagonists, the story was often full of holes and illogical, and the love story didn't really fit into the constantly suggested serious situation.

If you're looking for entertainment, you'd be better off finding another series. If you're looking for a very slow-paced narrative with a bit of romance and beautiful costumes, this is the right choice.

After all I think everybody who is a fan of south k-dramas will have enough with the series. Anybody looking for a bit more will not be satisfied. A pity for the whole plot.

could have stopped at ep 6-7
5 August 2023
Started good, but then (as korean soaps often do) got really boring. Not really a story anymore, more of a 'smirk' there and a cringy encounter after that. The cast besides the main protagonists saved a lot of scenes in my opinion. And the cringy touching and kissing scenes that would not stop repeating themselves were annoying. The plot was ok until halt of the 16 episodes. After that it just did not exist anymore and the whole reason for descisions made in the beginning of the show were deleted and unexplained. Well, that's that, you can easily skip a lot of episodes without missing anything.

not the best one, too long and too much preaching
24 October 2022
I like Fluffy a lot. The old shows were something new, and he's still the best while imitating sounds and people. But this one, this newest show, is just too long, and while waiting for the puns I felt like getting a preachers speech about life and mislife crisis.

The puns he made were funny, though. But it was 'too american' for my taste, with all the talk about cancel culture, vaccine and love your neighbour speeches. So I'll await the next Fluff round where I hope to find some new moves rather than the old safe tour in the latest part of comedy history. Tge show surely is good enough for a little laugh, but not wver as good as Ricky Gervais.

emotional but misses a few important things
1 January 2022
First of all: huge HP fan. Cannot get enough HP.

I was delighted to see sone of my favourite book characters again. I missed behind the film scenes and interviews (J. K. Rowl., tge first adult actors in the first 3 movies etc) though. Pity, they did not include ALL the important actors and contributors but just a few.

The Witches (2020)

Ok for: Families - Not much entertainment for: Everyone else
16 November 2021
The movie is cool for kids, not so much for adults.

I like children's stories but this one was too simple, and for the whole plot I guess I missed the wiiiitchessss... I personally would have needed them to get more screen time.

Cute and with some new ideas
4 November 2020
I really liked this one :) Animations are solid, the story is cute and oh my gosh the animals are so sweet. Also, some characters are deeper than I thought. All in all, a super animation movie and some shed tears ;)

Rare christmas story
15 November 2019
A truly heartwarming story. About how little kindnesses can make life more beautiful, children's laughter can warm the heart and Christmas can actually be a beautiful contemplative time.

A truly beautiful Christmas story is told here with humour and love for detail. For young and old. I could watch the film again tight now.. :)
