David et les lutins

I'm 38 and I find this movie funny, I cried a bit to be honest on the end but the Elfy acting excellent for this movie.

Do not expect to be everything perfect but in general this movie is funny, cute, kids can learn to love.

Yet here i am'', well if you know the line of this tune that malisciously infects us scandinavians from novermber first to make us come in the mood of believing and you like it, then view this polish santa and elves headquaters and their life and duties as the magic winterpeople of the world, its worth the wile and its just a matter of fantasy, hope and trust.

Even though polish language that is just a load of ''s's'' to me they do deliver the message, a well spirited acted and a production filled with the right glow and sound of the yule season makes this a must see for everyone. A childs story that will suit every grown up too, even the grumpiest of old men like me, who hates the stress and the race of preparations, other than what mr griswald do, namely to decorate the house illuminatevly, because like my crumbling old age has taught me is that to give others light and invisible hope every morning and evening when leaving for school and work vice versa, is the best and far more important than what i get myself...

so give a darn in your x.mas duties and follow my recommend, ''david and the elves'' is a film must see.

I wasn't expecting much but it is one of the best Christmas movies I have seen. The main character is eleven, and the movie should land well with that demographic, and their parents. It was uneven at times but the kids probably won't notice because there is the right mix of action, humour and emotion throughout. It would be easy to experience this story with the characters for anybody with imagination. Acting is much better than I was expecting. The songs are underwhelming but sincere. Note: I watched this in Polish with subtitles, not the dubbed version. Definitely worth the time to invest seeing with your grandkids and some hot cocoa :)

I wasn't expecting much from this film, like most Netflix Christmas movies, but this was an enjoyable watch. It wasn't annoying and flashy and loud. It wasn't too sweet and sappy either. The costumes and sets were top quality and I enjoyed the natural acting. The story was engaging and had some cute, funny moments. For the commenter who mentioned dubbing, you can switch your Netflix settings to subtitled and the problem is solved. Overall, it's a fun little film that captures the season and doesn't rely on cliches. A very good effort.

According to Wikipedia, Poland has only made a total of 4 Christmas films as of the time of writing: The Nutcracker (1967), Letters to Santa (1&2), and David and the Elves. It is clear that as a country, Poland has for the most part been very private with its Christmas traditions and lore, and I would like to start by saying thank you so much for opening yourselves up so that we of the rest of the world can have such a glimpse of your Holiday Season. The acting is well done and the fact that it has an English dubbed version on Netflix is even better. I especially loved the clever little references to other Christmas films, such as The Santa Clause with the beard scene. The cinematography was excellent, on par with other traditional films such as The Christmas Chronicles, however low-budget it may have been. The story is wonderful and heartwarming and an absolute joy to watch. Thank you, Poland, for sharing such a unique and charming Christmas tale with us. I would love a sequel.
