A typical example of a fairy tale that drags children's characters as much as possible. It is necessary to show how children perform feats, participate in key roles in global events, but how to do this? In real life, the child, being in such a situation, would put in his pants, run around, yell and call mom. And then he'd freeze to death in the woods and be eaten by wolves, that's the story. Therefore, trying to elevate the children, the authors acted very simply – they wrote them merits that do not belong to them. They say there is a prophecy, children in a couple of days are trained on skillful warriors, raise the spirit of the whole state. In fact, the entire army had already gathered the lion before them, the fairy-tale creatures for battle he also freed the villain. He did not need children at all, they were just tourists, with whom the locals babysitted, and their enemies jumped on the sword. This movie could have been made without them.
In addition, there is plagiarism in the film - the boy is captured by the Queen. Hello, Snow Queen.
And the scene that really killed me was a little girl falling into an icy river. What could be the outcome? I, as a resident of Russia, a northern country, in which there is even winter, was in junior school, what to do if I fell into the winter river, I know that this is a very difficult situation with a rather poor probability of survival, I know from childhood that a person will instantly lose his legs, and clothes will pull to the bottom, and need rescuers with a stick, you will urgently need to change clothes and warm the victim, and even in the best case, he will catch a sore throat. And here in the film it is shown that the girl got out, sneezed and went on in wet clothes. This is such stupid nonsense... One wrote about what he doesn’t know, and the other is happy to try to film it.
