Folk og røvere i Kardemomme by (2022)
A charming adaptation
This movie is an adaptation of.a Norwegian children's book classic by the same name from the 1950s. It covers the exploits of three robbers who live outside the law and confines of Cardamom Town, the story's main location.
The story, characters and setting are all feelgood and wholesome, so outside of the movie's climax involving a fire, parents need not worry about the movie being scary or overstimulating.
What they can expect is a charming romp with songs and comedy that parents that adults can also enjoy. The movie is a mix of stopmotion and CGI and deserves great credit for mixing them together. The film was made during the 2020 pandemic and they really did innovate in their creative/technical techniques in ways I'm sure took great effort.
It's good. It's solid.
