No pun intended - I think you can manage to combine the title and my summary line and get what I was aiming for without me having to mansplain it. I reckon I already said/explained too much. But if you thought I took too much time to get things started ... wait until you see the movie.

The whole movie is carried by our main character. And while she is called a Damsel (in the title), she can handle herself quite well. Mostly dialog wise (and she is quick to say something back to you), but she also has the will to survive ... which I reckon is quite important.

The numbers game (how many before her that is) is one thing - I am not sure it checks out, but then again, I really didn't care that much about it. The movie was quite obvious, even without having read anything about it before. So quite predictable - but it does look good. Also has too good actors in it.

That said, the effects are good and the voice over from one actress in particular is quite special ... if you've seen movies with her, you will recognize the voice! Great casting choice once more.

Good movie then, if you are into fantasy ... nothing more nothing less.
