Nutcracker is thought to be a "wooden spy", but the children insists they helped them so he and Clara are asked by the Major and Captain to explain everything.
Clara and the Nutcracker tell the two they are searching for the Sugar Plum Princess, who will put an end to the Mouse King's reign.
Major Mint however does not believe the story of the Sugar Plum Princess but Captain Candy, who was good friends with the Prince does believe their story. They plan to cross the ocean to find her, while the Major is not enthusiastic he and Captain Candy decide to go with Clara and Nutcracker.
Meanwhile, the Mouse King punishes two of his soldiers for not capturing the Nutcracker and looks in a book for information about the Sugar Plum Princess but finds barely anything. He creates a rock giant to destroy the Nutcracker and sends Pimm to go with the giant. The children stay with the villagers, and Clara tells Nutcracker she has figured out that he is Prince Eric, but he does not want to be the prince as his subjects think lowly of him; he just wants to make them happy.
They encounter some stepping stones, and the Major crosses, but he knocks the Captain off. Nutcracker saves the Captain and helps Clara cross. They then reach the Sea of Storms, and Clara and Nutcracker go to find more supplies because Captain Candy lost his bag.
Flower fairies help the pair find food and restore their home, but the rock giant finds them and chases them. It destroys a boat the Major and Captain were building to cross the sea and soon comes towards them.
The snow fairies come and turn the sea into ice, and the group goes with Marzipan across. Nutcracker cracks the ice, and the rock giant falls through and they get away. Pimm tells the king what happened to the rock giant and informs the king that the Major and Captain have joined, the Mouse King says the two are foolish for doing so and he has searched every book in the library and has found nothing on the Sugar Plum Princess.
The Nutcracker and the Four Realms is a really magical movie. Full of Christmas and Magic. Featuring stunning sets and costumes and a good moral. The plot of this new adaptation of the Ballet and the Classic story that inspired it revolves around Clara a young girl who's mother has recently past away.
Three of the realms are good and peaceful. But one is dark and evil and ruled by the villainess Mother Ginger played by Oscar winner Helen Mirren. This is the kind of big budget Fantasy movie i love!
The sets and costumes are colorful and intricate, the cast has big stars playing larger than life roles and it has a good moral about believing in yourself and grief. The movie has magic and a good midway twist. Mackenzie Foy does a good job playing the lead and among the other actors Keira Knightley is a stand out , giveing her character a unique voice and set of mannerisms. The movie also really gives you a christmas feeling with all its snow , Christmas trees and presents.
Richard E Grant and mexican comedy super star Eugenio Derbez also does a good job with their roles though both are slightly underused. Misty Copeland's role is also very small and i didn't even notice Miranda Hart.
Actually i'm not even sure she was in the movie. Maybe her role has been cut from the finished film. I know there were reshoots. Speaking of shooting. I don't know which filmed which scenes. It's a really good movie, I highly recommend it! The pink-and-purple lighting and floating cinematography and the dancer's serpent-like movements do not resemble any other moment in this already polished film, and one can't help but think that director Emile Ardolino deliberately planned it that way.
As far as the smirking Macaulay Culkin is concerned, his presence didn't bother me since he was the right age at the time of filming and did have some ballet background and frankly, he smirks in most films he's in.
