Endearing and whimsical, this reads just like a classic traditional folktale, with clear inspiration from the Brothers Grimm. It took a while for the story to get going but it was fun when all the different storylines converged. I watched the film a long time ago and I don’t remember the ending being as anticlimactic? I like that all the loose ends were tied up but I would’ve loved a big confrontation with the witch queen.
