Snøsøsteren

Message from this wonderful Christmas movie: 'Keep loved ones close at heart at Christmas'. That's how they would have liked to be remembered. Loved and never forgotten. Remember the laughter, the joy, the good times and not the tears. Top marks for subtle storytelling, great directing, careful timing of shots, clever editing, and music with only the smallest hint of suspense that gradually grows on you. 'Opening a present is not as exciting as getting one, it is the suspense that should be enjoyed and prolonged' said the bright, cheerful girl in red, Hedwig.

Slowly, the story unravels and things appear that make you realise that not all are what they seem to be .... and yet, it is so charmingly filmed, that you at first think that it is just a good fun movie for kids. There is a lot more beneath the surface. You are swept along the fjord and scenic beauty of Norway, covered in sparkling Christmas snow icing. Each snowflake crystal is unique, do you know that? There are billions of snowflakes in a snowfall and yet, no two are the same.

A modern day love story as told by children with tons of snow love in their hearts for their young friends and family. Bring home Christmas Joy this Christmas. 🎄

What a lovely film! Snow Sisters tells a touching and heartfelt story about loss while also offering a hopeful and uplifting message. The main characters, Julian and Hedvig, are portrayed with genuine and nuanced performances, making it easy to empathize with their emotions and actions. This isn't a fast-paced action movie; instead, it's a reflective and tender experience, like savoring your favorite drink. The script is very well written, exploring themes of grief and healing with sensitivity. The cinematography captures the natural beauty of the setting and the emotions of the characters without feeling intrusive, creating a visually engaging experience. The soundscape and special effects subtly enhances the atmosphere, drawing you deeper into the world of the film.

While the theme may feel heavy for some, it mirrors a reality that many can relate to, offering a sense of solace and understanding. For viewers who appreciate meaningful, character-driven stories, Snow Sisters is an emotionally rewarding watch. Highly recommended!

Wasn't sure when we started watching if this was just yet another mediocre film churned out for the Christmas period. Admittedly, it started off pretty average but quickly got better and better and surprised with its emotion and depth. Stunning Norwegian winter snowy landscapes and beautiful Christmas scenes to get you in the seasonal holiday mood. Highly recommend watching this lovely, uplifting and emotional gem of a Christmas film. Not heavy, sad at times, but ultimately a happy, uplifting message. All ages will enjoy except very young children. Loved it! 10 out of 10! Surprisingly good film!

Snow Girl (2024) is a heartwarming holiday film that beautifully balances themes of loss, hope, and the magic of Christmas. The story follows a young boy struggling with grief, whose family is weighed down by a tragic loss. Just when it seems the joy of the season has faded, he meets a lively girl in a red coat who helps him rediscover the spirit of Christmas.

The film's visuals are enchanting, especially the girl's festive, glowing home, which adds to the magical atmosphere. The boy's journey toward healing is deeply moving, and the film's message about finding hope in dark times resonates long after the credits roll.

With its blend of warmth and mystery, Snow Girl is a perfect holiday watch that reminds us of the power of belief, joy, and healing.

This movie, about a young boy named Julian, is a masterpiece!

I am very surprised by how much I enjoyed it. First of all, it is a Netflix movie. Second, it is mainly for children. And third, it is Norwegian. These reasons are typical for not having the best movies, but The Snow Sister stands out with its handful of qualities.

While the themes and commentary are simple, the movie excels with its handling of the beautiful and emotional story due to several elements. The pacing is almost perfect, the editing is fantastic, the dialogues feel mature, planned, and appropriate, and the actors do great, especially Celina Meyer Hovland (as Hedvig). I love her energy, and I appreciate that she does not do too much out of her role. The main actor, Mudit Gupta (as Julian), is not as good but does worthy. But there is more that elevates the experience. The score is absolutely amazing, which I am a sucker for, and I could listen to it every day. The visuals are great as well, much because of the good camerawork and nice visual effects. Speaking of the story, it is so much to say about it because it manages to be beautiful, tragic, warm, and dark simultaneously. This makes the experience an emotional ride that can touch everybody's hearts.

In conclusion, this is a surprising masterpiece. Despite being a children's movie on Netflix, it excels with perfect pacing, mature dialogues, strong performances, and exceptional score and visuals. It beautifully balances beauty, tragedy, warmth, and darkness, making it an emotional journey for all viewers.
