    Wow, Just. Incredible.
    This is a true Dutch Hallmark and shows us that this small country can deliver a very intelligent and yet touching film. The actors display an outstanding performance, even though the majority of the cast consists of young aspiring actors. No but seriously, this is so bad that it's brilliant. I have great respect for Carry Slee, who even though she can't write, made so much money of utter bullshit. It's amazing. Even for a children story/film this is horrible and totally inaccurate. Ride that dragon Carry and Carry us to oblivious rip offs. THEY MADE 7 FILMS OUT OF HER LIST OF BAD PRE-TEEN LITERATURE AND THEY ALMOST SELL EVERY TIME!!!

    She must be some kind of God.

    Amen.
