One to watch & to remember & to follow up upon ...

Rating: 9/10 (26 December 2006)

Before I saw a couple of clips of this movie. I immediately decided that I wanted to see it, because it seemed very funny, lovely & overall positive. Then I read some reviews in the paper and on the www and ... hesitated. Several reviewers wrote that they liked the beginning of the movie but "warned" that "suddenly" it was turning into a gloomy story about how human kind would destroy nature ... leaving the viewer behind with a very sour taste after so many funny stuff ... Still, I took the risk and it actually was a chance; a chance to enjoy beautiful scenery and an excellent script that is funny & lovely and very serious at the same time ... and ... overall positive. It gave me the feeling of hope. After many difficulties still humanity at least seems to display the intent to change their awful attitude towards nature. Although it might seem unrealistic ... still "hope" has changed more extremely difficult problems into wonderful solutions. Have fun watching it & please don't be influenced by reviews (including mine).
