Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
When I first tried to watch this movie I turned it off when the snowman started to talk and figured it had to be dumb. However the next day I gave it another chance and found that although it takes a while to warm up, it actually is kind of interesting. I won't say that I promise that you will enjoy this movie, but that it is not as dumb as it appears in the beginning. Also, it has a compassionate message, and that is always nice.
This is a wonderful movie filmed in English in Yugoslavia in 1988 about a boy who wants to buy a new pair of ice skates to compete in the annual competition. Along the way, he comes across a truly magical snowman with the voice of Roger Moore, and a sinister fishing boat captain. The scenery is quite beautiful and the acting very special in an un-Hollywood kind of way. Though technically not a Christmas movie, I would put it in that category because of its' message. This is a very good movie for children between the ages of 6 and 13 but is captivating enough for the whole family to enjoy.
