My Review is on MirrorMask. MirrorMask is a movie that has old ladies, weird houses and strange animals. Helena is in the circus business and her father owns it. Her mother did an act and than dropped. She got sick out of nowhere and than her daughter Helena finds out. She than goes to sleep and when she wakes up she finds herself in the dreamland she had created. She then meets a friend called Valentine. Together they escape the wrath of darkness and try to awake the queen of light.
They meet sphinxes that talk and they even see one that asks them a riddle. They answered his riddle and then they saw these huge giants that were floating in the air together. They find a key and than open the lock and find a little book. They meet the queen of dark and the librarian the duck-like-thing.
Soon the world is covered in darkness and the queen’s daughter is in her form in her world. She starts to burn all of the pictures, and yell at her dad. Then as Helena enters the dark queen's lair, she turns like her mother; with doll like black eyes and hair in a Marie-Antoinette style. Than she sees Valentine and they find the mask. Than she returns to her normal world and falls in love with the same guy! Valentine. But he doesn't know anything about it!
Comments
I loved the Mirror Mask movie which was based off of Neil Gaimens book of the same name.
It was wonderfully done and saturated the creative stylings of the auther. The visual aspect of the movie were dazzling.
Valentine was my favorite character; that wacky, morally wrong but good juggling fool!
