Awfully directed! The whole movie is based on a really terrible storyline which hasn't even been properly shown to the viewers . The songs are hideously bad , the scenes have no effort of proper directing. The lighting, videography really isn't up to the level of an fantasy . The effects displayed of the parallel universe dimensions are not at all sequenced together proportionately. The drift of the different dimensions aren't portrayed and co-ordinated quite right at all . The movie looks moreover like straightaway from an horror universe with rather complex fantasy characters which are hard to understand and hard to walk with the story . The animations and Gif-like pictures , vids and funny noises makes the movie more worse .

I watched this on Amazon for a price - and almost immediately wished I could get my money back. This wasn't the exciting fairytale fantasy I was expecting. The story feels random, the execution doesn't make any sense, and the editing/effects feel very unprofessional. A definite "no" for me.

Two things drew me to watch the 2022 fantasy adventure movie "A Fairy Tale After All", and that was the movie's cover/poster and also the fact that I hadn't already seen the movie. So of course I opted to sit down to watch it and see what writer and director Erik Peter Carlson had to offer.

"A Fairy Tale After All" is definitely a well-suited family movie, I will say that much, and the storyline was adequate. However, it was just a bit too Disneyesque for me. You know, where everything is something that has to be delivered by singing. Yeah, there certainly was a lot of singing in this movie, and it wasn't exactly what I was expecting.

The storyline felt somewhat chaotic and scrambled, and as it if was somewhat devoid of a proper red thread for the audience to follow. So it was something that was reminiscent of writer and director Erik Peter Carlson just making things up as he went along.

The acting performances in "A Fairy Tale After All" were adequate. It wasn't a cast ensemble that I was familiar with, and that is something I do enjoy when I watch movies. It was Bridget Winder, playing Madame Mizrabel, whom actually stood out as the most memorable in the movie in my opinion, both in performance and most interesting character.

Aside from the human cast, then the movie also made use of puppets in the form of animal teddy bear-like creatures. They were actually enjoyable and fun, as they added a comic relief to the storyline. And truth be told, they were actually nicely made.

If you enjoy fairy tales, then I suppose "A Fairy Tale After All" should be something right up your alley. However, all the singing just took the overall enjoyment down a notch or two for me, as did the somewhat disjointed storyline.

My rating of "A Fairy Tale After All" lands on a less than mediocre four out of ten stars.
