It features some decent visual effects and good cinematography of a snow covered landscape. I remember reading the book its based on (I like the authors work, though if the film was no good, I was (honest, guv!) say so) and I enjoyed this film version of it. It does well at portraying childlike fascination with myths/folk tales and the power of magic, that sort of seasonal stuff and I wouldn't say it talks down to any kids watching, in a patronising kind of a way, which is always refreshing. A nice festive film, I would recommend this, yes. Expand

Beautiful film.
It could have done without the wokish "the evil character is evil because she wants to preserve her culture" thingy, but everything else is magic.
