As a child I loved the magic of the old Kleks Academy movies, they were very bad but had amazig spirit and great music numbers. Went to the cinema with my kid, since we also read the book together, enough to say - hopes were high and good cast made them even higher.
From the begining it's a tear jerker. The movie has many slow scenes that WILL make you tear up. You could argue - too much. I enjoyed it but it might be to much for people looking for a light movie to watch with kids.
The movie treats audience mostly with respect - on one side - there is a lot of subtitles and not everything is said plainly, on the other - yes there are poop jokes - more then one. The way the heroes solve the conflict is unique and smart, not all of the problems disappear at the end of the movie, actions have consequences.
Things that are supposed to be scary genuinly are - in the way that old movies used to not hold back. One could argue that heavy scenes of war were cut in comparison to the original and the book but in today's political situation with war everywere it might have been a good and tastefull decision.
Character delevompent is a mix also. Our main character Ada is played by a good actor and we can see the reason behind her actions, there is no needless conflict at the end of second act.
Other characters were not given enough time - with exception of Mateusz who's story is very well told - and hits you with feelings when you least expect it.
Things having not enough time was a big problem of the Kleks Academy, perhaps there was too much cramed in in order to draw people to the sequel.
Action scenes were plainly bad, you have to squint very hard to not see problems - it's slow, awkward - entertaining only for small children.
There are 2 things that save this picture in my eyes. Let's start with music. They made the smart decision to use some of the original songs which are still present in the culture, in the cinema I could hear some of the children sing them quietly with the characters. These songs still have the same charm for the new generations they are just fun. New music created for this movie is great it gives beautiful background for the emotional scenes.
The second thing it does great is magic, creativity and spirit. The celebration of what it means to be a child, to allow yourself to play with imagination and just see the world as a great and wonderful place full of adventures and interesting people.
Today's children lose this too fast because of the internet, they become disilusioned with the world too soon. This movie makes an effort to show that it's important to not forget the child that we once were, to dream and be amazed by small parts of everyday life.
This amazing feeling is what elevates this film from mediocre book adaptation with pacing flaws to something that could make us realise the beauty of the world that surround us.
