SOLAN OG LUDVIG: HERFRA TIL FLAKLYPA (LOUIS & LUCA - THE BIG CHEESE RACE)

Watchable. Puppet and model animation. Good music. But most of all, a very pleasant story filled with compassion, tolerance, friendship, tradition, cooperation. Will suit both young children and adults. What detracts from this uplifting tale, is that attempted jokes are on the vulgar side. 

TOY STORY 4 3D

Watchable. I considered walking out it's so tiring and unoriginal. For young children. Puppets on real life background. In Poland you hear dreadful songs in Polish. The story's sad and repeats throughout the film: toys miss their children and children miss their toys - boring. A series of mid-credits and one post-credit focused around the Pixar sign. The 3D is quite basic and it turns innovative only in the way the end credits are shown rather than the movie. 

MORVARID (THE PEARL) (2012)

Recommended. Beautiful pictures, including underwater ones and a story both touching and engrossing. A family movie. This Iranian feature shows sea turtle eggs and hatchlings in more detail than any documentary I've seen in my life. 

BLACK PEOPLE FROM THE SOUTH 

Watchable. Beautiful cinematography presents the nature and culture of the south of Iran, interesting local music, few words apart from some geographical facts read out by a schoolgirl. A bit too slow for my taste.
