Darren K Aug 3 Hulu splash screen and tone deaf intro jarringly interject drudgery between each episode (6). New ending scrubs the world of magic and deflates emotional buildup. Did greed butcher this or just poor taste? See more Joe E 01/06/2024 The movie version is so much better. The TV version feels like just a chopped up version of the movie, with bad pacing, lackluster music, and a bewildering and disappointing alternate ending. See more Alicia S 12/22/2023 I enjoyed the movie when it was in theaters, and I enjoyed revisiting it in this series format. Very beautiful and moving! See more Alex C 12/14/2023 I'm not sure why the critics disliked this one so much. I thought it worked great as a series, allowing the epic the breathing room and pacing that it needed. I also enjoyed the framing around Nullah's perspective and the added scenes really helped draw me into the world of the story. Then of course there's the excellent cast and spectacular cinematography. I'd recommend it to anyone who asks. See more Susan B @suefb 12/08/2023 Of course as gorgeous and epic as the original film, but with more time for characters to react to their dramatic situations before some new plot point comes along. Also fills in certain confusing gaps and beefs up the roles of the minor characters a bit. Absolutely worth a watch if you loved the first film or if you've never seen it. See more Louisa D 12/04/2023 I thoroughly enjoyed most of the new footage - fills in the gaps in the story. Not sure the new ending was necessary but it was certainly dramatic.
