Hans Christian Anderson, weaving fantasy into reality. What a wonderful movie! I laughed, I cried, and I found myself searching my heart for forgotten memories. As a child, I loved all of the fairy tales written by the talented and mystical Hans Christian Anderson. This movie brought many of my favorite stories back to life for me. The fantasies of fairy tales are woven into the trials and adventures of everyday life. When told through the life of Mr. Anderson, the fairy tales take on more meaning. This movie ran for almost 3 hours. I usually take a break in the middle of a long movie, but not this time! I didn’t want to miss a thing. The film, Hans Christian Anderson, has excellent acting, costuming, special effects,and every thing else that makes up a great movie. My interest was peaked throughout the entire movie. This is NOT the little mermaid for children. This includes short dramatizations of the original stories of The Little Mermaid, Match Girl, Snow Queen, Ugly Duckling, Tin Soldier, Thumbelina, and more for a matured audience. I don't feel that children under 10 will "get it". This movie has a moral and a lesson to be learned at the end. I will be anxious to watch this again and again.Read full review
The reason I bought this is because it is from Hallmark and the Halmis, father and son, directed this. It is good, not excellent, because it has an interesting story behind how Hans Christian Anderson got his stories and how his life started out as poor and brought these stories to life. A fine Family film that you and your children will like to see and possibly own.
This is one of the best movies I've seen. Absolutely wonderful. The acting is supurb and the costumes are era perfect, the graphics are fantastic! A fabulous, superb, story telling movie for all. So pop that popcorn and sit down for a greatevening with your family and friends and ENJOY! ENJOY!!!!!
