A less than magical fairy tale hodge-podge

The Magic Riddle  Let’s just get this off the bat. Love animation, some are among my favourite films ever. Love fairy tales and have done since childhood. Loved the idea of mixing fairy tale characters together. Love musicals, always have done despite it being a maligned genre on IMDb.

So part of me really wanted ‘The Magic Riddle’ to be good, with all that being considered. Wanted it to be one of those underseen, underrated gems that were easy to defend. Sadly, ‘The Magic Riddle’ didn’t do it for me, didn’t care for it much as a child and care for it even less through adult eyes. Just for the record, this is coming from somebody who has been known to defend poorly received films, animated or not while understanding why most would find fault with them, and have gone against the grain more than once, though usually critics and me are on similar pages.

‘The Magic Riddle’ is not a terrible film, it just isn’t a particularly good one either. Loved the idea of mixing fairy tales/popular stories and their characters (who doesn’t), but it is not exactly a fresh idea and has been done far better with much more wit, charm and magic in Sondheim’s ‘Into the Woods’ and the ‘Shrek’ films.

A few things in ‘The Magic Riddle’s’ favour. There are a few good songs, the beautiful, tear-jerking “Ordinary Miracles” and Cindy’s song to the ugly duckling faring the best.

Cindy is a very likable protagonist, the best animated character (which is saying a lot) and the most interesting.

The ugly duckling is adorable and the grandmother is endearingly befuddled and luckily doesn’t over-explain all that goes on.

The video has several moments where it slows down. Seems like it wasn't properly ripped from a VHS but I appreciate that it was available.

After waiting 14 days I decided to enquire by email when my DVD would arrive

After waiting 14 days I decided to enquire by email when my DVD would arrive. I received an email back stating I had purchased it via download and had been sent an and had been sent a link, so I checked my emails lo and behold there was one there with a link in it but the link didn’t work, even though the invoice states when I made payment and ordered the movie it was fora DVD. So here we are still waiting for my DVD. I have received no communication back since the inquiry other than I made the mistake. Then I received an email to give a review while I can tell you what it’s not Sterling. I do not recommend buying any movie from this online store.

A good DVD but episodes out of order.

A good DVD, but the episodes were misnumbered and out of order. Not a problem once the viewer realises and watches episodes in correct order.
