7/10
Sweet just as I remember it

I was skeptical when I first heard that Heidi would be adapted into a film because I grew up watching the animated series on television and still remember it fondly, but this film surprised me.

You can feel how much the movie team wanted to make a movie that people who knew the original would love.

Heidi's actress is a wonderful girl. I could barely imagine anyone who would fit the role better than her. Klara and every other actor fit their roles and played them with a lot of charm.

The pictures in the movie are beautiful. You can almost feel Heidi's love for them when she is in Frankfurt and how much she misses them. The movie is well shot and has a wonderful and catching score, which contributes to the overall positive mood of the movie.

I am glad they got to put every major plot point in the movie, especially Klara's arc later in the series. We get a wonderful ending, and, in the end, a wonderful movie for kids and fans of the originals.
