A fairy story, Seven is a story about the power of words. About how a person can hurt somebody with a word, a slander or a lie, and about how important it is to use words carefully, because they can be as dangerous as weapons or evil magic. It is also a story about love, courage and patience, which can help to overcome the power of evil words and magic. (texto oficial de la distribuidora)

An absolutely amazing fairy-tale that has more in common with The Cave of the Golden Rose than with The Three Veterans. Simply put, it is more of a fantasy flick than a fairy-tale.. and that was exactly what I loved so much about this movie. It doesn’t have the happy-go-lucky atmosphere of Czech fairy tales. Rather, it uses a kind of realism set in an original fantasy world with a pinch of the Middle Ages. That’s the way I like it, and I think this approach could work in the future as well. Add to that the picturesque landscape of the Tatra Mountains, but also of the castle Zvíkov, perfect cooperation between the Czech and Slovak crew, a beautiful score and actors, none of whom was bad in this flick. Quite the contrary. I even think that Issová put in an absolutely amazing performance… and she barely speaks in this one :-) A Czech fantasy fairy tale as good as they come.

I was a little frightened by the genre designation "Fantasy/Action/War", but fortunately it's a pure Czech film fairy tale in a classic style, which if it didn't turn into a fairy tale of a slightly different nature in the second half and didn't lose track of the first half, would become a modern classic movie for the (not only) Christmas time. This is "only" the best fairy tale of the last few years.

Definitely one of the better Czech fairy tales of the last few years. The acting and directing were very good, but the plot itself was not to my taste. I prefer more classic fantasy and fairy tale features. 6/10.

The long line of film fairy tales based on Božena Němcová’s works dates back to 1929. As the years passed, tastes, styles, and film narratives changed. Alice Nellis accepted the latest challenge and has created something new. Starring the sassy Martha Issová, the rather gloomy subject has given way to modern gags, and in other roles, we can also meet the uncharacteristically guided Remundová or Bydžovská. Among the princes, the pleasant Lukáš Příkazký and Václav Neužil tend to please. I wasn't sure at first, but when I compare it to the "better" ones by Svěrák or Troška, Nellis clearly wins.

Vizuálně pěkná pohádka, obsahově a scénáristicky mám hodně připomínek. První půlhodinu jsem se zoufale nudil, některé scény byly dlouhé nebo zbytečné a bohužel hluchá místa prostupovala celou stopáží. Matně si vzpomínám na starší zpracování a vím, že na mě působilo temně a depresivně, to se o pojetí Nellis říct nedá, což jí dávám asi i k dobru. Takže nakonec průměrné hodnocení. A jsem zvědavý, v kterém filmu Alice Nellis nebude hrát Zuzana Bydžovská.
Vizuálnmente bonito cuento de hadas, tengo muchas críticas en cuanto al contenido y al guion. Me aburrí desesperadamente durante la primera media hora, algunas escenas fueron largas o innecesarias y, lamentablemente, los momentos de silencio persistieron durante toda la película. Recuerdo vagamente la versión anterior y sé que me parecía oscura y deprimente, lo cual no se puede decir de la interpretación de Nellis, lo cual le doy a su favor. Así que al final, una calificación promedio. Y estoy curioso de ver en qué película Alice Nellis no actuará Zuzana Bydžovská.

Alice Nellis in top form. Sure, it still lacks that ultra-cool film look (I speculated how Agnieszka Holland would have handled it, for example) but all things considered, it still turned out the best it could. We really needed such an honest, natural, and completely professional adaptation of one of the best Czech classic fairy tales. Martha Issová is absolutely perfect here, the soundtrack is surprisingly really good, and it has a nice fantasy atmosphere. Bravo. [75%]
