Skip it tonight—this 2018 holiday flick is a visually dazzling but narratively hollow retelling that banks too hard on CGI spectacle and not enough on heart. Unless you're desperate for festive family filler or have young kids who'll be mesmerized by the costumes, your time is better spent elsewhere.

Plot

When Clara’s mother leaves her a mysterious gift, she embarks on a journey to four secret realms—where she discovers her greatest strength could change the world.
