2 or 3 Things I Know About Him
What would your family reminiscences about dad sound like if he had been an early supporter of Hitler’s, a leader of the notorious SA and the Third Reich’s minister in charge of Slovakia, including its Final Solution? Executed as a war criminal in 1947, Hanns Ludin left behind a grieving widow and six young children, the youngest of whom became a filmmaker. It's a fascinating, maddening, sometimes even humorous look at what the director calls "a typical German story." (Film Forum)

A single parent family without Rick Moranis have their home invaded by Wiplala, a small individual from Wiplala. He has limited magical or betwinkling powers. At some point in time in the film he shrinks the family and lack the confidence to unbetwinkling his spells.This is a Dutch production fairly dubbed. I didn't find the characters or the story interesting, but I'm not 9 either. I found Geza Weisz is be annoying. Dad is a professor who teachers Roman and Greek history. Brother and sister get along more like friends than siblings.

Similarly to Sven I had high hopes for this film and just like him I feel that I was left disappointed. The CGI is decent for a European film, but the writing is less than impressive—to say the least. Characters are behaving irrationally and the whole plot is full of illogical twists. Why was it necessary to deviate from the book that much? Also I did not like the choice of the actor to portray Wiplala - in the book he comes across as a nerdy character and younger/slimmer than Géza Weisz is/was.However, for someone not too familiar with the book it's an acceptable entertainment and non-Dutchies will appreciate the renowned Amsterdam landmarks featured in the film.

Wiplala is a good movie!, Known as "Help I've Shrunk the Family!" or "Help I Shrunk the Family!", Like Honey, I Shrunk the Kids!, this is an amazing classic for kids & adults but they feature bad language, If you are a parent, be sure to click at different scenes!, Love love love it, I rate it 10 stars by the way, :-), Did you remember that these Chinese people speak English in this movie?, Well done!, Expect I love it. Great cast & crew, Very superb and the poster is well-looking. I almost like it!, For adults who do not know it, let them google "Wiplala" and show it to your child, Only recently goodly good films are a superb production.

So, when I looked the movie up here there wasn't really much to go on, other than that the language was in dutch, and there was an awesome photo. But bored as I usually am, I gave it a chance, with low expectations, non at all actually.It starts of quietly, but the excitement is there, you are wondering what is gonna happen, and as the movie goes on you cant really see the future as I feel most of the movies these days give you. Which is great, I hate being bored of a movie because I already know what is around the corner. So this movie was great, I felt the Arrietty vibe but with so much more, I would love to see something like this but maybe with a little more build to it, more background. See it, totally worth watching. Love love love!
