90 minutes

4 Stars
I obviously didn't read the description all that closely – I
thought it was the Pixar film. It was Indian, but, since I had it, what the
heck? The story seemed a little disjointed, but that could have been all the
interruptions while it was playing (4). Child actors are not always my
favorites, but these children were delightful, and the star stole the show. She
finds a blue umbrella, which she carries everywhere, mesmerizing all in her
mountain village. When it is stolen, she becomes depressed, and eventually the
thief is caught, and the village metes out justice. The ending was what I hoped
it would be, so no complaints there, the visuals and costuming were wonderful.
The movie has joy, sorrow, greed, justice, and redemption – for what more could
one want in a movie? This movie is suitable for family viewing.
