Enjoyable Outing
We took our grandchildren, ages 8 & 6, to see this film. They enjoyed the story, characters & could identify some of the paintings being featured, especially the 'Mona Lisa'! The central character experiences quite a few hair-raising adventures, and must work his way between the demands of friendship and danger, and is finally rewarded by the love of a beautiful lady.
We also enjoyed the film, having visited The Hermitage in St. Petersburg several times, pre-COVID19.
If I had any criticism, it would be the voices chosen for English-Language dubbing. A bewildering mix of Irish, Scots & Middle American do not sit well with the characters & there are more than enough well trained voiceover actors to be found in either Russia or the Baltic Republics who would have done a far better job.
