S.O.S. Befana is an interesting entry in family fantasy, showcasing a blend of imagination and whimsy typical of TV movies from its era. Beniamina, the titular Befana, faces off against an anti-Befana—an antagonist that feels a bit undercooked but serves to highlight the themes of good vs. evil and the importance of dreams. The film's practical effects have a certain charm, even if they don't always hit the mark. Pacing can feel a bit uneven, as it shifts between light-hearted moments and the darker undertones of a villain stealing children's dreams. The performances convey warmth, particularly the interactions between characters, which gives it that cozy, fairytale vibe. It's distinctive in how it explores the fairy tale world, making it a curious watch for collectors interested in fantasy narratives.
