Now for a fairy tale adaptation.
Maya is a problem child who misbehaves all the time to the point that her mother can't handle her no more, so her mother asks a witch to help her out, this witch gives her the book Thumbelina which after reading, Maya gets transported to the dream world as if she were Thumbelina herself. With a fairy made of sugar and some magic items, Maya sets off on her way to the Land of South to find her mother, along the way numerous creatures want to either kill Maya, force her into marriage or throw her into nightmares, so yeah that's pretty much how Thumbelina goes anyway.
The version I watched was the dubbed American version which attempted to re-tell the story as an 80 minute feature from a 26 episode series, while the series probably makes very little difference to the story it would've at least given us a cleaner narrative especially in regards to her so called behaviour which the dub doesn't portray well making Maya very tame for a so called troublemaker. The editing isn't any better as it makes it all too obvious there were cuts.
Dubbing was actually pretty good even if it did remind me of Digimon.
Final Verdict: Passable movie but it isn't the best in terms of editing or narrative which would've helped the story alot, if you can find it, try and watch the original tv series.
