Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

OMG like thi s mivo is really scaey and i got super spooked while wotching it so dont ever watch it please becuase it sucks butt

Two of my students in Children's Church had their mom give me a copy of this movie -The Legend of the Sky Kingdom- to watch, saying, "Marylynn will love this movie." Well, they knew me well and they were right! More importantly, I believe they know why I'd appreciate it so much. This highly creative, greatly imaginative movie depicts the message of the salvation of Jesus Christ in a highly unusual medium.Before we come to know Jesus (Prince Ariel in this movie's case), we're serving an evil master and going nowhere. When we realize there might be something more - a sky kingdom we've never heard of before! - we'll do whatever's necessary to get there including stepping out in faith on a bridge that's invisible before we can begin. The life's journey includes pitfalls along the way, like the Jungle of Despair and the Desert of Desolation.What the writer and producers from Africa (Zimbabwe) of this movie did must surely have been a first. They had a very small budget and so they created a genre - "junkmation" - in which they used all kinds of junk to create their characters and scenery. Brilliant. Thank you, Nathaniel and Matthew, for sharing this movie with me. And thank you and congratulations to the creative geniuses behind this movie. I truly believe God gave them their talent, but more importantly, they used it to bring His loving and exciting message to children in a way never heard of before!

I was highly impressed and filled with admiration at this "junkmation" adventure, and was surprised and pleased to learn that it was Zimbabwean. The story is a simple Pilgrim's Progress allegory, and is the weakest aspect of the film, but it is made up for by the fact that every character, prop and set is made entirely out of junk and trash. The characters are engaging and have a remarkable degree of personality, the animation is painstaking and highly imaginative, and the overall effect is remarkably sophisticated. I hope all involved will continue to have opportunities to exercise their inventiveness and creativity in the future, as this is a real little gem of animation, unique and brilliant.

This is the first film from Zimbabwe I've ever seen, and as if the country of origin was not strange enough for a movie, it is animated and the figures and the scenery are entirely made of litter. I bet you haven't seen anything like that before! The plot is very simple: 3 children break out of an orphanage in an underground city where they have to mine gold for the Emperor of Evil. They escape with the help of two guys (hard to assign them a gender when they're made of junk) and want to reach the Sky Kingdom and its good King. The way is full of funny adventures: they have to cross a jungle, a desert and a maze, just to name a few obstacles. On their journey, they get a lot of help from the king's friends. I was actually bored after 15 minutes because the plot is so simple. I call it a movie for children who might have their fun and even get inspired by the positive message, but grown-ups should not go there, except if they are interested in junk-art.
