What makes it different from others?

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Spoilers Are Likely (Not Like You Frankly Give A Damn)Here I Am Again (Mother Of God) For My Next Venture Into The Animation Underworld. This Time, I'm Diving Into The Colorful World Of South Korea To Review Leafie, A Hen Into The Wild.The Film Follows Leafie, A Farm Hen Who Strives To Live In The Wild. One Day, She Finally Escapes Her Chicken Coop And Meets This Crippled Duck Named Wanderer. Wanderer And His Mate Are Then Killed By A Weasel, With Leafie Adopting Their Son (Who She Names Willie) And Raising Him As Her Own Child. When They Move Into The Everglades, Both Leafie And Willie Are Shunned By The Other Birds Because Willie Was Adopted. As A Result, They Spend The Entire Year Trying To Fit In While Avoiding The Weasel.Look, This Film Is Relatively Easy To Sit Through In Contrast To Some Of The Other Films I've Reviewed (I'm Looking At You, Jungle Shuffle), And It Does Have Redeeming Factors: The Animation Is Very Anime-Esque, The Acting Is Acceptable, The Soundtrack Is Up To Par And This Time, The Massages Are Able To Shine Through. However, Once You Dig Further Down, The Film Is Clichéd In That It's Story And Messages Follow An Incoherent "Raising A Child" Plot And Several Tropes I Think Were Pulled From Other Animal Films, Because I Felt Like I Was Watching Bambi In A Couple Of Scenes.You Got Lucky With All Those Redeeming Factors, Leafie. 5/10.

This movie is absolutely beautiful. Taking it as it is, it's visually appealing, has it's quirky and cute moments, and just overall touches your heart. It's everything you'd expect from an animated movie.That being said, it does take on some more adult themes, however I feel like it would appeal to people of all ages, 3 year old's and 40 year old's alike.This movie beautifully touches on the troubles of a female who becomes a mother in lieu of the unfortunate circumstance that is nature and all its dangers. Her love for the child and wish to raise a child of her own puts her on the path to raising a baby who's nothing like her. The movie proceeds to touch on how hard and how rewarding parenthood can be, the good, the bad, and the ugly, especially when your children grow old enough to fly the coop and you're left to remember all the beautiful times they gave you.This movie also displays the selflessness of the female, as well as her determination to protect a child that's nothing like her and not even hers, while in turn aiding someone else in need of protecting their children. This message is beautiful for kids, as well as it is for teens or adults.TL;DR: I HIGHLY suggest you watch this, whether in the original Korean version with English subs, or the English dubbed version. It's a rewarding experience that has highs, lows and enjoyable moments. This movie is just one of those warm, memorable movies. I guarantee you'll remember it years from now even after only watching it once.

I watched this wonderful Korean animation with my mum and by the end we were both uncontrollably crying.A short little plot of the movie: A hen escapes the barn and somehow becomes the 'mother' to a duckling, they bond beautifully but later their differences create tension and conflict.This movie has a nice soundtrack and the vibrant colours and settings of nature are really appropriate for a kids movie but this is so much more!The pictures sort of have an anime feel in the action scenes and is usually accompanied by music for highly emotional scenes. It's hard not to feel your heart sink at these moments. If you want your kids to watch it with you then be warned: there will be tears so be careful not to take the little little ones so that they aren't wailing about how sad and yet beautiful the ending is.The post-movie feelings are hard to describe because you can't help feel that it should've ended better in terms of the story line but I think that's what the real preciousness of the movie is, it really captures the rareness of ultimate love and sacrifice that you really have to appreciate what happens. A definite must-watch and I assure you watching it as a family is incredible.

Anyone who ever had, or ever was a loving mother owes it to him or herself to watch this masterpiece of Korean animation.This is definitely one of the most touching, poignant movie I've ever had the pleasure to see. It will hit straight into your heart and awoken feelings you forgot you could experience.Everything from the vibrant art style, flawless animation, well structured narrative, good balance of humor and drama and brilliantly orchestrated score brings this movie to a state of perfection few other animated features have achieved before.Little warning to parents: Leafie deals with some pretty heavy stuff. I mean, you should definitely go watch it with your older kids, but the younger ones should probably sit this one out. It was, after all, based on a book for preteens and contains scenes of violence (don't worry, nothing too graphic, and this is definitely NOT one of those hyper-violent mindless summer blockbuster) and some heavy emotional investment that might not be suitable to younger audiences.In brief: I recommend Leafie heartily to everyone, it's a definitive must-watch, but be ready to cry a river.
