The Nutcracker and the Four Realms [SteelBook] [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray/Blu-ray] [Only @ Best Buy] [2018]

I had high hopes for this film - but it failed to deliver what I had hoped it could have been. Disney did a fabulous job on the 3 Narnia movies and the "Four Realms" looked like it was going to be a cross between Narnia and a Nutcracker Fantasy. The first half of the movie was going that way until one of the main characters is revealed for who they really are - and then came cheesy acting and a hokey "let's quickly wrap up the ending script". The special effects will entertain the 12 and below crowd, but the potential for an adult PG fantasy was not fulfilled as it was with the Narnia series. This is basically why the other Disney movie reboot of "A Wrinkle in Time" did not work.

This movie did not get the attention it deserved! Great visuals, decent script, and a unique and funky originality throughout! Do not be fooled by the title...this movie is not about a bunch of toys dancing and skating around a lake! The plot is actually designed more for adults who seek an escape from the cookie cutter stories we have become accustomed to. Parents who took small children expecting something sweet and predictable were probably shocked. Perhaps, this was why the movie became the yesr’s best sleeper!

I don't know much about the Nutcracker, aside from the familiarity of the music and it being usually heard around Christmas. But I was curious about a movie based on it. First impressions, not much impressed. The costumes and sets were beautiful, though. I will just have to watch it again. And since I own the movie that will happen. Likely around Christmas. If you are a huge fan of the Nutcracker, you may like this as is.

I think that "The Nutcracker and the Four Realms" was one of the greatest holiday films of all-time and it was also one of my favorite holiday films of all-time. I really enjoyed this film and Keira Knightley was amazing in this film. I also think that "The Nutcracker and the Four Realms" had a lot of entertaining, exciting and enjoyable action, mystery and suspense including an exciting and original storyline.

The acting and cinematography are INCREDIBLE!!! The movie plunges you deeply into an amazing fantasy world where dolls are brought to life. This movie is a different twist on the Nutcracker Suite. Perfect for young and old alike!! I highly recommend the movie!! The Best Buy collectible Steelbook is definitely a keeper! Beautiful graphics!!

While "The Nutcracker and the Four Realms" doesn't have the strongest plot line, it is a feast for the eyes. The costumes, especially were outstanding. If you know in advance that this film doesn't follow the original story or the ballet, then it's easier to go in without expectations and just to enjoy it for it's own merits.

Nutcracker and the Four Realms is an incredible movie of reality before the stage production came about. The movie is an incredible example of what the environment and what people are like and can accomplish when healthy. Even the expressions on the animals faces show that the eat food categories. The case for this dvd is very nice.

First of all, my wife is a Disney fanatic, and it was certain that she would want to see this movie. So I preordered the film. I've bought the steelbooks before, and this one has such a beautiful case. She loved it. The movie itself is a good, holiday themed fantasy film, though it was short. It is a beautiful film to look at.
