      donn b I actually enjoyed the movie quite abit...and I'm not even sure why. It was filmed nicely, the music/score was lovely and the acting was solid throughout...without any of it standing out. Overall, I just found it a pleasant/watchable distraction...which is rare enough these days. It was better than most movies I've seen from the past few years. It may not be to some people's tastes...but I'd consider it a solid and awtchable film overall. I enjoyed several parts enough that I found myself watching those portions multiple times. Its a German film but the English dubbing was good. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie is such a cinematic masterpiece. It's so beautifully shot and amazingly played. The main cast is really sympathetic and they acted their roles really well! It's a must see, that's for sure :) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review katie w Lovely story, seriously impressive visually and surprisingly funny!
