I watched the trailer to this movie and was thinking this would be a fun fantasy, adventure, romance movie. It is, but it is also an opera. I would estimate about a third of the movie is Mozart's "The Magic Flute" opera, sung in English. Totally missed this was a musical, and more specifically, a classical opera. I think viewers should know that going in so you are not surprised. When Tim entered the fantasy world of "The Magic Flute", I was wondering, when are they going to stop singing opera? I would recommend turning on subtitles if you are not used to listening to opera. The lyrics can be hard to follow. Because so much time is spent doing a classical opera, the real-world plot does not have enough time to be fully developed.
