Reviews

"The fact that for some time Hollywood suffers from acute poverty of ideas, is nothing new. Therefore remakes of successful productions are in high demand at the major studios from time immemorial. Independent director Bart Freundlich ( " World Traveler" ) now tries to Hans Fabian Weber Smudge Danish children's film hit " climbing Ida ", but goes so doing in Hollywood conventions which are lacking in any charm of the original consistently. After all, his action-adventure " Mission: Possible ." Technical solidity, and at least mediocre entertaining for the young visitors " Carsten Baumgardt, filmstarts.de

" The Director: Bart Freundlich's Hollywood remake of the great Danish children's film " climbing Ida ", the smart to himself " Mission: Impossible " and the classic safe cracker films served is simply superfluous. His film acts as if want to get rid of all those involved of their tasks as quickly as possible. Breathless, he rushes through the plot, can not even have time to adequately present its main characters, the children Trio. Almost all the secondary characters mutate to bang batches. The serious point of the story is sacrificed so without hesitation vordergründigem slapstick. " JÖRG FIRE, Hamburger Morgenpost

" An entertaining cinematic experience for kids and teens - exciting and modern presentation. " Jens Friebe movie_spotlight,

" Mission Possible has quite the plants to a sympathetic, in parts even thrilling youth film. The performers differ from beneficial Hollywood advertising film grade average. Just a pity that the U.S. version instead of their characters would rather be the target group, while too much on high-tech appearance, superficial dialogues and unnecessary pathos in the final set.
