Review of Mirakel

Mirakel (2000)
9/10
Cute film, cute kids, cute problems, cute puppy love.
21 April 2003
Dennis P., a twelve years old Danish boy in a modern one-mom-one-kid family has problems. Big problems for a twelve year old boy. His mom's a nagging mess, his teacher is targeting him, his best friend is in love with the same girl as he is, and he's still hairless, as one of the last boys in his class. As I said, big problems.

If I had to describe this film in one word it would have to be "cute". But still in such a way that boys would want to see it, too. I think many boys around 10-14 will recognize themselves in these characters. Although there is a naïve, Christian theme it doesn't ruin the film or make it "religious".

Well worth to rent and watch with your late pre-teen/early teen nephews or nieces while babysitting. Expect some giggles.
