With soft box office, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Best for anyone who likes a world with its own rules and families. Leaves you with ideas to chew on afterwards. A good follow-up to The NeverEnding Story.
- The mood
- Feel-good.
- The pace
- Bright and bouncy, at 1 hr 10 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
- It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1979: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you like your stories firmly grounded in the real world.
In an enchanted forest, the princely brothers Michael and Andreas get lost and are transformed, by a mountain spirit who jealously guards his underground treasure, into animals until the unlikely event of sincere love from a human. The only persons who may be able to give such love are the local commoner sisters Snow-white and Rose-red, who are kind and helpful by nature and stand to harvest unimagined rewards.
