To be honest, I did expect this movie to be a fun childhood memory that probably won't hold up. And when I saw the beginning I felt I was right... remember the 90s, when a kid was happy to get a cupboard for his birthday?
But after the opening this movie got really good. A boy gets a magical cupboard that turns plastic figures to life (and back if he wants). So soon enough he befriends his little native american.
And damn is this movie cute. I was just happy watching it. But it's also sad in parts, but never too sad to handle.
The special effects were done really well, I expected them to look really outdated and to not really work at all, but it all looked real enough to forgive the few scenes where you could see that it was CGI.
It's just a greatly enjoyable movie with a moral lesson and it's fulfilling the wish of every little kid (and some adult kids as well), to just bring your favourite action figure to life.
4/5 stars, everyone who was a child should see this or should have seen it already!
