Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

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

igorrogov This is one of those movies that are extremely hard to criticize, because to write anything truly meaningful and deep one has to watch it from the start to an end, to get the message, to touch the elements of cinematography etc etc etc.All this I found quite an impossible task. This movie is not simply bad, but it seems to take itself extremely seriously, so to take it lightly and poke some fun at it would be like to laugh at retarded kid on a wheelchair.Any self-respecting person simply wouldn't do that.I tried watching honestly, and ended up getting the first 12 minutes, cringing and moaning, zooming to the middle, moaning, zooming further, another half-a-minute cringe worthy bit...As you zoom at 4x speed, you may find some screens worth your attention, but as you slow down to a normal speed and sound and acting starts coming through... Nope. Impossible.I would rather open up a medical encyclopedia and enjoy some garish gangrene pictures.Thanks

Joe F I don't usually do this. I don't really care enough to post on here, but for this travesty of a movie I had to register. This film has: horrible acting, horrible plot, horrible script, rotten to the bone. I have no idea for whom this movie was made, in appropriate for children boring and immature for adults. The only saving grace is that they spent 90 million on it and only got back a few grand. Anyone associated with this piece of crap should be ashamed of themselves. PS: I'm willing to bet money that anyone giving this a positive review is either associated with the film and has no soul, or has recently been the victim of a horrible TBI.

toniannholmes My kids and I absolutely love this movie. We can't stop watching it. I am a huge fan of the ballet but this movie tells the story in such a way that I never imagined. The singing is my favorite part. And the acting is wonderful. Nathan Lane and Elle Fanning are brilliant. The first time I watched it I wasn't quite sure if I like it. Then, I watched it with my 6 and 8 year old children and we all agreed, Wow! That was awesome! And Charlie Rowe as the Prince was just adorable. When he was the Nutcracker he had this strange little voice, almost eerie. The costumes and makeup were fabulous. The Rat King and his mother and all the Rat soldiers were very lifelike! Give it a chance. I am so glad I did!

tiy135 Yeah, reallyThe Hoffman's classic is for the first time in hi-tech style (and in some pseudo 3D), with Tchaikovsky and even Dr. Albert. One would be pleased to see the favourite story albeit in a new rendition, but... You can't please them all. One says "too rush", another "too slow". One says "music is nice", another "dumb music" (meaning Tchaikovsky, perhaps). And so on.Cutting long story short, people with mechanical mindsets do always want a wetter water. Ratdogs certainly do not like toys...
