Review of The Nutcracker and the Four Realms (2018) by Steven H — 02 Nov 2018
Don't understand the negative reviews - this is a wonderful, entertaining film. Everyone from grandma to the little ones can enjoy it. I guess the cynics just don't get it. Yes, the newbies in the lead roles are not what you expect, yes, the big stars are mostly reduced to cameos.
But the movie is well done. Production values - makeup, costuming, set design, music - all very good. CG work is excellent and not at all intrusive or overdone. Misty Copeland ballet work and the Andrea and Matteo Bocelli duet in the closing credits - fantastic! What's not to like? There are so many little elements that the reviewers appear to have missed.
..see if you can find them. I may go again and will definitely get the DVD. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
