Kids Like It, I like it Because I'm High

Title says it all. It's win-win for both parents and children, assuming you, as a parent took something beforehand to relax. This movie is WILD. What is even happening? Does anyone know? I sure don't. My kids seem to like it though, and that's all that matters, right? I'm also enjoying it kind of, even though it's terrible.There was one scene I didn't love, where the owl man was talking to the main girl in her window and asked if he could use her toilet. I immediately turned to my kids and said, "HEY. If a strange person appears at your window, don't open it under any circumstances, even if they look like an owl. I don't care if it's a unicorn, a princess, a horseman, or whatever--just don't open it, okay?"All this to say, this movie is objectively terrible. HOWEVER, it's still kind of entertaining. So that's why it still gets a 6. It entertained me and that's all a movie is supposed to do.

Has potential, but was poorly edited.

I am very happy that Polish domestic cinematography has finally started to cram the manual on "How to make films?" and they clearly reached the chapters "Shots", "Cropping", "Special Effects, especially ones looking not like a rubber dragon". Unfortunately, they didn't have time to review Chapter 7 "The Cutting and Editing" before they released the film for distribution. Or the entire budget was spent on shoots, set design and CGI, and there wasn't enough for the editor and it was put together by Joe, the director's brother-in-law. It is also possible that more material was shot and that it will be turned into a TV series, but what was to be included in the film was chosen haphazardly.

Aesthetically, the film is beautiful, individual scenes are interestingly done, the children's acting is good, but the main problem is the strange inconsistency of the plot and editing. It's really hard to describe.

The film is definitely good to watch ... in an altered stated of mind. These orgies of colors... om nom nom. ;)

Tomasz Kot carries the role well, and so does the main character (minus a few moments of the so-called "high cringe value"). The boss of the bad guys is awesome (Danuta Stenka).

But even at the stage of introducing Fronczewski (who played Professor Kleks in previous installment) there are inconsistencies, sometimes it is hinted at us that the title "Professor Kleks" is something like "Dr. Who" or "high school principal", and at other times it is suggested that Fronczewski was "someone else".

Our group at the cinema was trying hard to figure out the strange jumps in the plot and we quite often looked at each other with a bit of "wtf?" in our eyes.

I would love to see some sort of "director's cut" with the movie flow streamlined.

But the kids liked it.

There will be a sequel.
