Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

willo-14 Shu-fen's comment has very intelligent observations, i agree entirely and won't try to surpass his enthusiast, excellent review. I am familiar with the beloved Dutch TV series from the late sixties that was behind this film and have enjoyed this remake, true to the spirit of the original as it is, immensely. The speed and inventiveness in this film are incredible, one slapstick-like scene after another, songs and musical-like scenes bursting out everywhere all the time, and yet, very clear cut small miracles of natural acting abound, intimate scenes, close ups, small conversations, never too long... Viewers from abroad will fail to recognize and enjoy the nice local accents of various Dutch towns in the speech of some actors, but that's always something inevitably "lost in translation"... - willem ouwerkerk

conedm Today the DVD version of the movie was released in Holland and as a big fan I've just run through the DVD.A simple, yet effective story line combined with the outstanding music and strong character play makes this an excellent movie for children. A funny trivia about the movie is, that the movie almost had to be canceled, because the Red Cross organization was not happy with the use of the red cross on the clothing of the main character, Zuster Klivia. Luckily this dispute could be settled and you can see the Zuster with a retouched blue cross cap."Ja Zuster, Nee Zuster" originally was a series that ran in the mid sixties in Holland. It depended heavily on the excellent songs and certainly not on intriguing story lines. Because film tapes were expensive in the 60's, other material was recorded over it and for a long time all film material was believed to be lost. Yet in recent years some of the original material was rediscovered.From this original material 15 songs were selected and added as a bonus to this DVD, making this DVD also a must have for older generations.

breug A couple of my friends wanted to see this movie. I thought it would be terrible but I went along anyway. To my surprise it was a great movie. The acting is great, especially Boordevol was terrific. I know him as Anton Gleuf from a kids show and he was so incredibly funny in this movie. When they began to sing in the beginning I felt a little bit awkward but after the first few songs that feeling was over. The atmosphere is really great in this movie.

klatuu-1 This is a remake of an old tv series from the sixties which was very popular in Holland. The songs are classic and everybody knows them so everything could go wrong with this movie. Instead the film is a wonderful delight a tribute to the original. It's over the top, sometimes a bit camp but so funny! Go and see it in the cinema; the 'big' musical need it!
