Audience Member This imaginative Norwegian movie is a fast-paced adventure story for the whole family. Kids might even pick up some knowledge about how different parts of the body work as the characters travel through the body. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Think Fantastic Voyage meets Dr. Seuss and you've got the gist of this odd, theatrical anatomic fairytale in which a little boy attempts to save his grandfather from a kidney stone. It's not anatomically correct, of course. Cells from various parts of the body play music, dance and fall in love as calcium crystal villains stop grandpa from peeing. And when he does, this brings back memories of long-dead grandma, for reasons probably best not delved into. Good, but not great, and most interesting for its visuals and imagination. The story itself goes awry at times, but its got some fun moments. The kids might really like this one, especially if they're in the 8 to 10 year old range. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review bill t Good movie about a body who tries to heal his grandfather's illness by shrinking to microscopic size thanks to his talking teddy bear and partnering up with a brain cell to find out where the ailment lies. Actually quite original (even though Fantastic Voyage got there first) but plodded down by bored looking boy actor in the leaad. Imaginary costumes and set design though. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member <a href="http://s1023.photobucket.com/albums/af351/Psychobacher/?action=view¤t=vvv.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1023.photobucket.com/albums/af351/Psychobacher/vvv.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> A very odd film... And actually pretty freaky.. or scary rather, haha. But In all interesting, and just plain weird. I liked it nonetheless. Very interesting plotline... Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Det faktum at det er en norsk film fra 1996 med data-effekter er ganske fantastisk i seg selv. Voldsomme set-pieces og kostymer og en relativt interessant historie. Jeg likte den ikke sÃ¥ godt egentlig, men gir den cred. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Den teknisk mest imponerende norske filmen noensinne. Kostymene er fantastiske og historien snedig. En finfin anotomi-leksjon Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
