Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Horst in Translation ([email protected]) "Die goldene Gans" is another German fairytale film from not too long ago. Fiebeler, Brinx and Kömmerling worked on a couple of these, especially the 2 writers, but this one is not a great achievement unfortunately. Maybe one problem is that it runs for almost 90 minutes and thus considerably longer than they usually do. The cast is not bad for a television production. Hasanovic, Naujoks, Krumbiegel and especially Haase, who got me curious about this project, have decent bodies of work, but they cannot elevate the mediocre material here either. Over-the-topness and absurdity are frequent in these fantasy films for German television and usually that is not a problem, but here it is slightly too much for my taste. There was not a single situation where I was really impressed unfortunately. Not a particularly good watch and there are many superior of these fairytale films out there.
