My daughter (9) was sometimes with tears in her eyes from laughing. Great children movie. That said my wife and I also loved it. The people that gave the liw ratings obviously miss the humor.
Just like others mentioned it reminded me of The Princess Bride. This one is full of little jokes and uou have to watch it several times to get them all. Word jokes and funny things in the scene.
The story is simple snd nice and it has a typical feel good ending that you see coming aftr just watching the first 10 minutes of the movie. But that doesn't take away the joy of watching this gem.
A mist see for everyone that likes British humor.

It must be nice to have such good friends and crew members who all think this movie is a 10 and not one score under 10 given.
How did this movie get made?
Someone actually financed this garbage?
Good luck getting your money back.
The acting was beyond bad.
ChatGPT could have written a better script.
The directing, lets just not comment on that, I have nothing nice to say about that.
Hollywood is dead. Its that simple.
No more good ideas and even less talented writers / directors who can produce a descent movie these days.
For all those who gave it a resounding 10 out of 10, get your head examined. This movie was a train wreck and if you think this is worthy of a 10, clearly this is the only movie you ever watched in your life and never witnessed a well crafted, well written, well acted and directed movie.
Guys stop giving 10's.

This one's out of the blue. It's funny without even trying. The dialog is simple and straightforward, but enjoyable nonetheless, because it does not pretend to be a hifalutin talking-head.
Every bit is enjoyable, and the laughs are always mostly unexpected.
Even the costumes add to its comedic flair; ogres who do not really look like ogres. No need for expensive CGI to make this film watchable.
I recognized Tami right away, and she is as beautiful as always.
The acting is apt. Even when the dialog is already too corny, it actually blends with the overall theme.
Stories like this, I miss. I hope filmmakers make more of this.

Man and Witch: The Dance of A Thousand Steps is an under appreciated masterpiece. It is a movie that knows exactly how cliche it is, makes fun of how cliche it is, and shows how fun it is to be cliche. From great main characters to great background characters, to a great setting, to great set pieces, to great writing, this movie feels to me like a cult classic in the making. It heavily calls back to the whimsical era of 80s fantasy, from The Princess Bride to The NeverEnding Story, deconstructing some of the more cliche tropes of 80s fantasy while still showing how fun fantasy can be to watch. I highly recommend this movie to anyone looking for a fantasy movie, romance movie, comedy movie, or just a movie with a happy ending.
Truly utterly a diamond in the rough a black Perl yet to be discovered a little piece of magic for everyone that is available and receptive to just enjoying a magical enjoyably fun movie experience filled with laughter irony fun love task and old school storytelling made in a marvel way to entertain and they so entertain so well wit a great narrator that makes the story perfect in so many ways it is as I said truly a b movie of the princess bride it's a love version of the never ending story that keeps it head held up high and will become a cult classic for the few of us that listen watch and understand it's truly marvellous.
