Grand Prix of Europe

Such a lovely movie! My nieces and nephews loved it, and now I'm officially the cool aunt for taking them to the premiere! They have never been to Europa Park, but you don't need to be a fan - the film stands on its own and tells a fun, heartwarming story that kids (and adults!) can enjoy. The idea of a race isn't new, okay, but it's still cute, and the development of the story, especially of the characters, shows that it has a lot to say. A really impressive debut - fun, sweet, and really well made. It seems like making kids happy is their mission, whether it's through rides or films.

Downside: I'll have to go back to the cinema a second time with a horde of little brats!

I really enjoyed it. The animation quality is really good, the story is well-written, and it has everything a child could possibly want: talking animals, excitement, and a car race. The characters are sympathetic, and there's a good balance between action and emotional moments. Even though the protagonists are Europa Park's mascots, the story isn't about the park, a choice I greatly respect. It's clear that it's created by people who have always been involved in family entertainment but considering it's their first movie in theaters, it's even more remarkable. I definitely recommend it!

My little monsters loved it. After the latest Disney flops, I finally saw them excited about a movie again, and I was pleasantly surprised, too. I thought it would be some kind of self-celebratory commercial for Europa Park disguised as a cartoon, but instead it's an independent story, and even though the theme park theme is present, it's nothing like you'd expect. I certainly wouldn't have thought I'd find that part so sweet and sentimental. The story is cute and funny, the characters adorable.

It's truly a nice, classic, family movie, but with modern sentiment and a remarkable graphics.

Such a cute movie! There's a little something for everyone - the car race for the action, the mice's personal journey and the old amusement park for a more sentimental touch, and a bit of silliness for some laughs.

We went to see it with kids of different ages and interests, and everyone found something to enjoy.

Our favorite character was probably Edda, but some of the side characters were great too - we especially loved Maria the seer and Magnus the bear.

The way they showed the countries in the race was also really nice: simple, representative, fun and just right for kids.

There's nothing pretentious or boring here - just a good old-fashioned family movie, like the ones we used to have.

Highly recommended!

This movie was such a nice surprise!

In a time full of disappointing, lukewarm animated films, it was great to see my kids get excited about a story again. It manages to feel both modern and old-school at the same time.

For example, I loved how the mouse girl's role was inspiring, yet felt totally natural - the idea that a girl can achieve just as much as a boy is obvious and implicit (as it should be), without feeling forced or overhyped.

The animation is high-quality, which is great, but they also invested in a quality story, which is not a given. All in all, a really lovely family movie: lively, exciting, and the kind you'd happily rewatch on the couch on a family movie night!
