    Not a bad movie

    I don't know why these low ratings and reviews, it's a good movie for kids and adults Is the reason for these low ratings that the movie did not contain the agenda of modernity and that it was kids movie that was innocent of everything they wanted to push us for?

    The movie is not without flaws, but it was never a bad movie I loved it and recommend watching it Much better than many of the children's films produced by big production companies, which are no longer innocent films Very good film for the family to enjoy, Very good film for the family to enjoy, Very good film for the family to enjoy,

    A pleasant kids movie

    I really enjoyed this movie. It's a movie for children so I don't get the low scores.

    It felt like an Astrid Lindgren story mixed with the Neverending story.

    It's a movie about fear and how to overcome it before it grows to strong so it turns into something worse. Something I have the unpleasant knowledge about. It's about death and that we have to let go sometime, something I am still working on.

    It's about two siblings that goes on a journey together to overcome this things but not all as it seems.

    If you like adventure movies for kids this is not a bad movie is. A bit slow maybe but I can live with it.

    Seriously Amazing!

    I watched this with my 7 and 9 year old kids, I have to say WOW!. We absolutely loved it!

    The visuals are amazing and the story hits out of the blue. I initially felt it started a little slowly as the kids just wanted to see the creatures but the story establishes itself with some things that really hit home later. Once the characters fall into the underground world it really gets going and there really is so much to look at. The visuals and the story are a lot bigger than what is shown in the trailers I saw. And Its Australian film! This is up there with anything you will see. It's a great adventure with a sweet story that prompted some thoughtful family conversation afterwards. Highly recommended.

    Mediocre fantasy film

    Hello viewers, what are you thinking? Is it worth watching? Let me tell you something first, if you got nothing to watch then It's worth watching but if you have other options you can skip it. Kids & teenager may like it. I was hopeful about 'The Secret Kingdom' from an user review where she applauded it. In the very beginning I saw a family moved to a new domicile because of money problem & they lost their house to the bank. So new home showed another world below in there they story will reveal itself. A teenager boy was the protagonist of this movie, to be honest his acting wasn't good. He missed proper expression, then come the visual effect: visual effect wasn't that good. Only thing that grabbed my attention was the character of Verity (a nine years old girl) she was so energetic & dialogue delivery was praiseworthy. All other things fall apart, as a fantasy adventure teenage movie you can try 'city of Amber' or 'the bridge of terrabithia' Well, I am not impressed with The Secret Kingdom. I will give it 4/10.

    Surprisingly good family adventure movie!

    I have this as a 6/10, but that is out of major respect to the studio and their ambition with this movie. For an Australian film, this is shockingly ambitious and isn't afraid to do big action scenes. Now, some of the CGI is iffy, but it's perfectly fine, given this isn't a major studio release (I'm looking at you Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumainia).

    The kids acting is surprisingly solid; it's always hard to find good child actors, and to find some outside the U. S. is outstanding. That's where many of these family adventure movies fall, and it's great that they found good talent. Also, they will probably be great for kids to see themselves in the characters, so that's a plus.

    The main faults of the movie are the generic story and (as I mentioned before) its iffy CGI. The story is serviceable, but it's been done many times before; it's okay to go down the same path, but without enough turns, it ultimately just feels samey and that's a problem both big and small movies can have. The CGI, at some points, shocked me with how good it was, and I want to give my full praise to Hive Studios Australia; but at other points, I felt like I was ready to pick up the XBOX 360 controller.

    The reason why I'm saying this is because they are on a good path and just need to keep pushing a little further to create great CGI through and through.

    I want to keep this review short, but this movie is an absolute trip that, although it doesn't always land on its feet, makes up for in adventurous spirit. If you're a parent looking for a movie for a family movie night I'd highly recommend this one.

    • Trivia
      The character of Verity-played by Alyla Browne-has a name derived from the Latin word veritas, meaning truth. This fits thematically, as truth-uncovering it, accepting it, and confronting it-is a major focus of the film. Verity isn't just a name; it's a symbolic anchor.
