But Why Tho? A Geek Community

Too Old For Fairy Tales is hard to pin down, so rather than try and fail, I will simply recommen it...It’s not what you might expect at first and really never remains one thing for too long in a way that reflects the movements of life and growing up.

Rated: 7.5/10

While Too Old for Fairy Tales has an endearing plot, it takes a while to get to the good stuff.

Rated: 3/5

“Nice” is the strongest descriptor I can conjure for this movie, which is ever so slightly too meandering for its own good, and leans too heavily on cliches and familiarities

Ready Steady Cut

With a nice, wholesome ending, overall this film is an easy, sweet, quirky watch. I’d recommend for younger audiences; some adults, mostly parents, might find parts to relate to.

Rated: 2.5/5
