I watched this on Amazon for a price - and almost immediately wished I could get my money back. This wasn't the exciting fairytale fantasy I was expecting. The story feels random, the execution doesn't make any sense, and the editing/effects feel very unprofessional. A definite "no" for me.

Awfully directed! The whole movie is based on a really terrible storyline which hasn't even been properly shown to the viewers . The songs are hideously bad , the scenes have no effort of proper directing. The lighting, videography really isn't up to the level of an fantasy . The effects displayed of the parallel universe dimensions are not at all sequenced together proportionately. The drift of the different dimensions aren't portrayed and co-ordinated quite right at all . The movie looks moreover like straightaway from an horror universe with rather complex fantasy characters which are hard to understand and hard to walk with the story . The animations and Gif-like pictures , vids and funny noises makes the movie more worse .

Two things drew me to watch the 2022 fantasy adventure movie "A Fairy Tale After All", and that was the movie's cover/poster and also the fact that I hadn't already seen the movie. So of course I opted to sit down to watch it and see what writer and director Erik Peter Carlson had to offer.

"A Fairy Tale After All" is definitely a well-suited family movie, I will say that much, and the storyline was adequate. However, it was just a bit too Disneyesque for me. You know, where everything is something that has to be delivered by singing. Yeah, there certainly was a lot of singing in this movie, and it wasn't exactly what I was expecting.

The storyline felt somewhat chaotic and scrambled, and as it if was somewhat devoid of a proper red thread for the audience to follow. So it was something that was reminiscent of writer and director Erik Peter Carlson just making things up as he went along.

The acting performances in "A Fairy Tale After All" were adequate. It wasn't a cast ensemble that I was familiar with, and that is something I do enjoy when I watch movies. It was Bridget Winder, playing Madame Mizrabel, whom actually stood out as the most memorable in the movie in my opinion, both in performance and most interesting character.

Aside from the human cast, then the movie also made use of puppets in the form of animal teddy bear-like creatures. They were actually enjoyable and fun, as they added a comic relief to the storyline. And truth be told, they were actually nicely made.

If you enjoy fairy tales, then I suppose "A Fairy Tale After All" should be something right up your alley. However, all the singing just took the overall enjoyment down a notch or two for me, as did the somewhat disjointed storyline.

My rating of "A Fairy Tale After All" lands on a less than mediocre four out of ten stars.

I saw positive reviews about this and I'm even more confused than this movie left me? Bad acting, bad directing, absolutely chaotic and messy plot, too scary for children but definitely not coherent enough for adults. Also, they put on these huge unnatural contact lenses on the lead actress that made her off-putting at best, and scary at worst. Speaking of which, I know most movies cast adults to play teens, but she could not pass as a teen at all, it was actually bothersome to watch. I want to know who thought that this, any part of this, was a good idea, and who (and why?!) reviewed it positively. I rarely experience something so horrid, but I did this time, and if I save one person from going through this mind-numbing, bizarre and all around baffling experience, it'll be worth leaving this review.

Oh, my god! Why did I decide to watch this film? This film is so terrible. From casting to original score, everything's bad. Bad enough to unbearable. I couldn't continue after 30 minutes. (I even regretted that I watched for 30 minutes.) So, for me, it's not worth to watch it.

Must avoid film.

Is there another movie with the same name? Hard to believe anyone could rate this more than one. Seems like it was shot by an amateur film maker with a hand camera. Horrible acting, singing, music.

Just don't bother!!! As a adult who grew up obsessing over the labyrinth the magic the puppets the costumes !!! I was so excited when I came across this film. Oh but how I was wrong !!!!!! I regret setting my eyes upon this film. The only saving grace is that I'm glad I didn't purchase to watch on Apple TV but instead waited n watched it on Amazon at no extra charge. This film deserves to be placed in the deepest darkest oubliette Never to be found again, the plot was messy it was hard to follow it's more of a feverish nightmare that's never ending, I'm actually typing this as it plays I'm that bothered by it, the trailer was more impressive but oversold on an epic scale.

I came nostalgic for the fantasy puppet movies of my youth and was willing to forgive a lot. This film is unforgivable. Possibly the worst I've ever seen. Reminds me of highschool av club made movies. I still dont know what the plot was if there was one so I couldn't write spoilers if i tried. I think someone got a free package of thunder and lighting effects and assumed thats all you need to tie scenes together. The 40 something playing a teen is also weird but hardly worth mentioning with how bad every other detail is. Pure cringe.

The entire family watched and loved this movie! It was a perfect mix of a fairytale life and muppet babies. It was entertaining and the songs were so catchy. My granddaughter is singing the songs around the house now. Get your popcorn ready and enjoy some family time!!!!

This film may not be the perfect Oscar contender, but it's quite obvious that's not the goal here. The film maker is clearly a fan of Jim Henson content and he does his best to recreate that type of experience.

The songs are excellent and catchy. There are some moments of humor that are light-hearted and slightly self-referential.

Overall it's a fun movie that really tries to blend an emotional tale of the loving bond of father-daughter with a whimsical puppeteer driven approach that gives the viewer quite a nostalgic kick.

I should have gone with the negative reviews and passed on this one. The trailer made it look like a Labyrinth-ESC-type movie, so I was super excited to see it. However, very soon after starting the movie, I found that the negative reviews were more true than not. The film was odd and hard to follow, with a huge dash of bad acting. My children (10 & 12) kept glaring over at me because I picked it, and eventually they asked if I would turn it off. Roughly 45 minutes in I decided to just take the L and find a new movie. I wish I could get my money back.

This movie is pure torture. It's worse than Cocomelon, Teletubbies, and Caillou combined. The acting is 100% atrocious. The special effects are terrible. The dialog and writing are just awful.

No way the 10 star reviews are legitimate, they were probably written by people who made the movie.

Kids movies do NOT have to be excruciatingly painful for anyone over the age of 4 to watch. There are plenty of kids movies that are tolerable for adults and actually have good stories or decent acting. This isn't one of them. Just have your kids watch Toy Story or literally anything else.

There is so much going on here. Just so much. Basically it's a series of seriously weird and disturbing music videos strung together with a very loose plot.

Written, directed and produced by the same person for his first movie attempt ... that should be have been warning enough. This is a movie filled with disconnected original songs, set pieces, Muppet puppets, red filter scenes... a middle school fever dream that somehow made it to the screen.

1* is too generous.

Overall the movie is a want too be knock off movie that resembles Disney, but fells to reach even a standard of a home made film. The characters are scary the story line is hard to follow. I just couldn't watch the whole movie. I felt like the director stole one of Walt Disneys classics and, failed madly! DONT WASTE YOUR TIME.

I turned this off very quickly. I didn't enjoy it. They lost me at the first outburst of unwarranted singing. I was saying why couldn't this be a Disney film. They know how to make fairy tale movies.

Most of the reviewers have given this so-called movie either one or ten stars and I cannot do otherwise to rate such a messy and rumbling video with a strong musical hint of Frozen (2013) but with a Murikan accent and a cliché Instagram feel.

I thought this movie was very creative. It was great to see puppets again like the Muppets, Fragile Rock and Sesame Street. The movie reminded me of Labyrinth and Neverending Story. Thanks Erik for making my Blockbuster weekend.

A pathetic attempt to emulate Disney that has left me reeling from second hand embarrassment. I wouldn't even recommend a hate-watch. The lead actress was unconvincing and flat, and the songs forgettable and cliché. This film sets itself up as a grand production, but I echo the sentiments of others who say it's like something you'd find in depths of YouTube. I've seen better student films. The lack of effort and originality has honestly left me shocked, and at a loss as to how this ever made it out of Microsoft word.

Everything was so poorly done and unprofessional - right from the opening titles. A complete waste of time, and a waste of resources.

There aren't many arthouse movies that incorporate fairy tale or princess themes since Disney holds the monopoly on most of them. When one of my readers recommended A Fairy Tale After All, a film that was released by Premiere Entertainment Group, I was curious what an original fairy tale-inspired indie flick might look like. This movie stands apart from the 2018 indie adaptation of The Little Mermaid and its spiritual sequel, Anastasia Once Upon a Time, because it tells an original story using different creative mediums including animation, puppets, and music. The overall quality is on par with other indie attempts at adapting fairy tales, but I appreciate that the filmmakers tried to do something different with commonly used princess tropes. The story has an important message about grief and accepting loss.

Sky is an imaginative teenage girl suffering from the loss of her father and struggling to fit in at school. To cope with these struggles, she escapes to a fantasy world called the "Dreamension" where she is a princess in a fairy tale on a quest to rescue children from the wicked Madame Mizrabel and reunite with her father. Most of the movie takes place in this world and only spends time in the real world to let the audience know that the story exists in her imagination. It has some scathing reviews due to the convoluted plot and endless expository dialogue about the history of the fantasy kingdom. Although I can understand where these reviews are coming from, the world's backstory doesn't need to make sense considering that it takes place in the imagination of a grieving teen. The concept of using fantasy to deal with grief has been done in movies like Bridge to Terrabithia and the WandaVision series, and A Fairy Tale After All is upfront with the audience about its intent.

The story, acting, and cinematography are messy, but the film still has its redeeming qualities. There was a lot of effort put into combining various visual styles to create a dream-like feel. The live-action imagery makes full use of costumes, makeup, and Jim Henson-like puppetry to capture its viewers' imaginations. It switches to different mediums throughout the film including storybook illustrations, Flash animation, and black-and-white filmography. My favorite aspect is its soundtrack. Unfortunately, the poor audio mixing made the songs difficult to enjoy to their fullest potential. The songs were written and performed by Australian-based artist Chelsi Hardcastle. She is very talented and has an ear for musical theater with songs that give off strong Dear Evan Hansen vibes, so I place full blame on the audio mixers for all the songs sounding like they were coming out of a tin can.

With a 72-minute runtime, A Fale Tale After All is a quick watch even for viewers who don't enjoy it. It could benefit from some extra time showing Sky in the real world and how the "Dreamension" scenes parallel her life. Near the beginning of the movie, Sky goes to an empty school theater to try on costumes and is shown doing ballet in between the fantasy sequences, but it isn't clear if her character is actually a performer or if she likes to imagine herself as one. One way to fix the story issues would be to make the fantasy world part of a school play that Sky was performing in, and due to her grief over her father, she gets so lost in the story that she thinks it's real. With the way the movie is presented, it's difficult to tell what her life is like at all in the real world aside from the loss of her father. However, the power of escapism is a relatable plot when it comes to princess fans.

A Fairy Tale After All is an original indie movie that attempts to breathe new life into the fairy tale genre. Despite its messy plot, acting, and cinematography, the film has its redeeming qualities, such as its creative use of various visual styles and beautiful original songs. While it may not be a perfect movie, its exploration of grief, loss, and escapism makes it a relatable watch for fans of princess movies. If you're looking for a unique, arthouse take on the fairy tale genre, A Fairy Tale After All is available to stream on Amazon Prime. Just be prepared for a convoluted plot and some audio mixing issues. With a 72-minute runtime, it's a quick watch that might leave you appreciating the filmmakers' efforts to do something different with commonly used princess tropes.

One of the worst movies I've ever watched, I only watched it because I was scrolling looking for something to watch with my two young daughters and they so the title cover and wanted to watch it, it was a big mistake, the film has no redeeming qualities other then the title cover, the acting, and casting is awful the lead actress is supposed to be playing a school child I'm assuming teenager but she looks about 30, (after looking at her profile she was born in 1991 so yes she was over 30 when the film was released) the singing I guess isn't the worst I've heard and is at least bearable, but the worse thing about the movie is the plot and editing, it's all over the place, I mean it's confusing for me, never mind my 6 years old daughter. It feels like the whole movie is made by a a couple of 20 year old students pretending to be film makers. Do yourself a favour find something else to watch with the kids.
