      Love starts with not believing in love

      7.2 points, I always know that Lucas Studio's special effects are doing well, this is okay.
      First of all, let's talk about the character design. The faces of these princesses are really ugly, they are not as good as the Tinkerbell series, but the princess's shirt is very good. It should be borrowed from plant elements, a bit like pitcher plants, but I like it. There is also the handsome prince in his clothes. This big devil, who is sensitive and inferior, is also very good, and he is ugly...

      May it be as good as the story

      Most of Disney's cartoons have pros and cons like this, and they are willing to overcome difficulties for true love. Disney's customary approach, this is how it feels before you click it. Sure enough, the outline of the story is to find true love with a heart that embraces true love.
          Personally, I still love to read stories like this, because there really is no such plot in the real world. Modern people are too selfish, unwilling and afraid to accept a person easily. This is the...

      True love is the most amazing magic

      This movie is simply described as: under the action of a powerful love potion, an animated musical of a chaotic courtship battle between the fairy kingdom and the elves, fairies, goblins, and demon kings of the dark forest.

      A prince got acquainted with the elf princess in order to gain the throne selfishly, and wanted to gain the trust of the elf princess so that he could get married and get the throne. The elf princess is very fond of him. The two are preparing for the wedding, but...

      The hero is handsome

      This is a bowl of nutritious chicken soup.
      The theme of the film is probably: love needs patience. There is no one-sided approach to love (various techniques for chasing women). Even the ugly gets love. Personally agree too.

      Actually the hero is really good. I think. He himself has tried that love medicine and it doesn't work, but he still wants to prevent it from appearing, so he is not actually preventing love from happening. But I don't want people to suffer the same damage as...

      Don't think that you can make a bad movie if you have a card game from Lucasfilm... The music is so bad, is this rap... The characters are so ugly, even the heroine is not good-looking......

      4/10. The new series of how to torture the ex-boyfriend of a scumbag to death, batches of fairy tale themes have been set up by the prince playing soy sauce. The narration of songs and dances is still full of trouble, the elf scene that still washes the eyeballs, the courtship of black and white skin, the setting of the unruly princess falling in love with the devil, the cross-species eye-to-eye of lizards and dwarves, how did postmodern come about. The core is thin, the elements are stewed,...

The fairy princess Marianne and her fiance Roland are about to prepare for the wedding, but when Marianne gave Roland a corsage, she found out that she had another lover, and the marriage was just for the throne. So...

    Evaluation action

    "New York Magazine": The biggest thing about the film is that it fails to elicit any story, because its presentation is strange and incomplete. Its tone and concept are still in the planning stage.
    "Los Angeles Times": The animation effects seem to have limited charm, and the stories are just blunt cascades. Maybe even fools can't fall in love with this movie.
    "Hollywood Reporter": The film is like a hodgepodge of noisy and...
