Review by georg-havelka

I see that a lot of people gave this movie low ratings. No idea why because this is a fun old school adventure movie for children. Our kids (5 and 8 years old) both liked the story a lot and found it interesting to follow the adventures of the child actors.

The movie is about friendship and not about historical accuracy.

Of course it feels like a silly comedy for grown ups that want to watch something sophisticated but that does not mean that it isn't well suited for its target audience, which clearly is young kids. The whole purpose of children's movies is for them to be able to enter a fantasy world, not to worry about cultural appropriation or some other fancy idea that's currently en vogue.
