About This Movie

Kiki & Lala's Hansel and Gretel, released in '93, takes the familiar Brothers Grimm tale and infuses it with the whimsical touch of the Little Twin Stars. The animation has this dreamy, pastel quality that fits perfectly with the ethereal theme. The pacing is a bit different – it meanders along, allowing the audience to absorb the enchanting landscapes and the slightly eerie vibe of the gingerbread house. There’s something about the character design that feels both comforting and slightly off-kilter, enhancing that fairy tale sense of wonder mixed with danger. The performances, while not vocally elaborate, have an endearing charm that suits the overall aesthetic. It stands out in its own quirky way.
