YOU DON'T KNOW JACK
20 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
It has become popular to mix fairy tales. In that regard we have a mix of Sleeping Beauty and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Jack, the kitchen boy is the love of Princess Rose. He is held prisoner by the evil witch Dellamorta who looks like Cruella De Vil with Liz Taylor eyes. The dwarfs, who all have different, politically correct names and no beards, must rescue Jack while singing modernized songs to a soft hip-hop type music, making one think every time they sing "ho" in a tune.

The dragon is dorky looking and is not a frightening aspect. The film is about friendship, I think. The story aspect seemed geared for ages 5-10. There is an early scene where Rose nonchalantly consults Tarot cards to make a decision, which may be a factor for certain religious folks.

I preferred "Strange Magic."
