    Worth a watch

    I can say i thoroughly enjoyed this film, the soundtrack was really good and i appreciated how they used water-color like animation to tell a story. It was really refreshing to see how a story can also be told with these rather 'unconventional' lines. Although the animation style is this film's biggest charm, ironically it is also it's biggest issue. At times the animation does feel a little bit jumbled and rushed which makes it a tad bit hard for the viewer to connect with the movie. With all that being said, i absolutely think it is worth a watch.

    Poetic and beautiful

    At first sight you may get disturbed by the drawings and the storyline but then you progressively look more and more intensely. Every movement is incredible, every drawing is a dream Let you immerse in it

    Not My Cup Of Tea, Couldn't Finish It

    This film isn't bad, I want to start off by saying that. However, the movie just felt boring to me. I couldn't finish it. The animation style is unique? However the film's cover is not the animation style. This movie in my opinion should have been a short film. I got 40 minutes into this and had to turn it off. Some things in this film look beautiful, other seem messy and jumbled. Also, the story itself seems cool but in execution it just feels bland.

    Lovely

    The experience of watching this film is quite unlike any other. I found the poetic and metaphorical nature of the story to be complimented amazingly by the animation, which will not be everyone's cup of tea but which I personally found stunning. The story itself is lyrical and meditative, and the power doesn't entirely hit you at first, but it's on reflection that you truly realize it. Overall, this is a strong film that deserves more recognition.

    A good film

    This film is good. It adequately describes the Brother's Grimm tale and brings a lot of creativity and originality to the project. The whole story captivates you the longer you watch.

    I liked the animation overall. However, some of the animations seemed rather lazy. One scene in particular when the bird was traveling through the mountains. Also, the disappearing characters. It is useful in scenes to convey meaning, but at other times it happens randomly and seems again, like lazy animation. But watch for yourself, maybe I'm missing something from the art.
