surprisingly much better then expected...

childhood-memories... yes, I'm biased... at least in two ways: I love the story and the books and secondly I believe that the first movie with Gerd Fröbe is hard to beat...

now to this one: Armin Rohde is great as Hotzenplotz! no doubt on that! The locations and images are beautiful! And the way they merged the first two books into one story was good! now for the bad aspects: who the hell wrote Amarillis like this? and who casted Barbara Schöneberger into this role??? Every single child in the movie did a better job. perhaps she couldn't do better because she was told to act just this way, but I really didn't like it... btw: could someone please take away this mirror from her? mirrors belong to other stories or just left to Rüdiger Hoffmann ;-) But the most important fact: even if I didn't like the movie the children did and it was fun joining them on the same movie :-)
