9/10
A Finnish fantasy tale
6 December 2004
Wonderful children's movie that keeps also the more grown up viewers interested all along the way.

The director succeeds combining a good story, different kinds of character personalities, and the technical implementation, into a one very working title.

The beautiful Finnish nature supports this fantasy tale, that tells the classic battle between good and evil, in it's own personal "goblins" vs. "elfs" way.

The technical implementation is very demanding at times, the goblins remind me the desert folk from "mad max 2", but the team handles creating the wardrobe, the goblin city and other parts very well. The budget is not very big, but the love for making good movies has inspired the team to finish every little detail with care.

Both thumbs up for this whole family's movie.
