Four Kids and It

About This Movie

So, 'Four Kids and It' is kind of a quirky mix of family fun and fantasy whimsy. The kids are a bit rowdy, but that fits the vibe of a holiday adventure. The creature, a sand fairy, has that old-school charm thanks to practical effects, which I appreciate over CGI any day. The setting in Cornwall is lovely, with that breezy seaside atmosphere. There’s a nice balance between the kids' shenanigans and some heartwarming moments. The performances are pretty decent, especially from the child actors who carry the film well. It's not groundbreaking, but it has a certain charm that makes it worth a watch, especially for families or those who enjoy a lighthearted fantasy.

Directed by Andy de Emmony, known for his TV work. · Features practical effects for the magical creature. · Filmed on location in Cornwall, enhancing its seaside charm. · Released in the UK in 2020, with a mix of comedy and adventure.
