Wow! Such a good movie.

Who payed the critics

it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.

I watched this movie a few years ago, but I still remember how I wanted to constantly gouge my eyes out. The animation looks like it was done on a potato, the dialog makes absolutely no sense and was obviously sent through google translate, and wasn't checked to make sure it made sense. The plot is what a two year old on crack would write on a bad day. And this is no where near a so bad it's good movie, this movie is an abomination from hell. If you value your mental sanity do yourself a favor and don't see this movie

This is, by far, the worst movie I've ever seen. The moral is bad, the animation is bad, the characters are unlikable. I can't find a single redeemable quality to this. I remember going to it knowing it was gonna be pretty bad, but when the movie finished, I was shocked at how horrible it was. Ivan's dad is the worst thing about this entire movie. He is the single most unlikable character in the history of fiction. I mean, how can you even write someone this terrible. He publicly embarrasses his child, and when Ivan becomes magically powerful, he exploits him to make himself wealthy, and he gets what's coming to him, I felt no form of sympathy for him, whatsoever. If I could give this movie a negative rating, I would. All in all, avoid this like it's the plague.

Moral is.....BE YOURSELF!!!! Certainly not for the closed minded. If you think three nude men in a sauna are "GAY"...read no further. Unfortunately there are too many uneducated people out there that do not get what films are really about and give poor reviews because they don't understand what they're watching. This children's film was entertaining and good for children as a cautionary tale in; be careful what you wish for. As an American I know many of us will not get it but these people will never see the world outside our borders and certainly won't appreciate it. I am not one of these people so I showed my kids this movie and guess what. They got it. Not only got it, but loved it. So if you want your kids to see places like Provence, France or Madrid, Spain; and not feel like they're out of place in a global village, then show them this film and pat yourself on the back for expanding their minds.

This I found on Netflix and watched it, and I think that they put effort into it, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, I really think that it's much better than their other works though. It has incredibly weird hair animation and it doesn't really make sense. The dad's a jerk, the kid is not a likable character and a lot of the models creep me out, though not as creepy as their other movies. You need to see it to know what I mean. It's good for the Phase 5, but that's not saying much at all. I do like some of the humor and jokes and it feels good when the bullies get dunked, and like I said before, you need to see it to understand what I mean.
