Serves up some sweetness but otherwise keeps its laughs mild and its themes unimaginatively simple.

Latte and the Magic Waterstone provides an enjoyable tale that kids should be able to find a bit of entertainment out of.

Princess Latte, a brave hedgehog with a mission, leaves all agog. Cute characters and lessons here. But tiny tots might shed a tear.

作為一個成人.觀看時也許缺少了"危險"的激情.這不能做為電影好壞的標準判定這部電影整體表現值得鼓掌.如果成人的內心還保有童心.這部電影是很好的選擇

Well I play the roles of Bantur and Korp so perhaps I'm partial. It has been #1 and #2 on all Netflix movies for several weeks and is #1 in New Zealand as well. A sweet family film that shows children just how strong and courageous they can be at any age.

Surprisingly good watch, could watch again, and can recommend. The beginning is a little rough as they're establishing the world and lore of "The Magic Waterstone", and they come REALLY close to an underlying racism metaphor a couple of times, but having watched the entire movie, it doesn't seem like it panned out. The characters are just grumpy and likeable enough that each sort of has its own charm. I would have appreciated more finely tuned characters, but the cg aesthetic does seem to make up for it. It's not a great movie by far, but I think it is good enough that younger audiences will like it and it is well enough composed that adults would be able to watch it with their kids without being too bored.

I felt like the plot and messages were both quite a bit confused, but Latte makes up for it by being a very endearing character. Her and the vague promise of a forest of animals being a fantasy-type society (despite how much I think that failed to live up to my own hype for this concept) are what basically carried the whole movie in my opinion.
