The Portable Door

Unexpectingly entertaining, wish they did some more with the door. It reminded me of the series the skeleton key I watched years ago.

What do you get if you mix the **Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy** and **Harry Potter** with a pinch of **Labyrinth**? Unfortunately, it doesn't feel nearly as creative as it should.

The concepts aren't 100% original ( I watched an animated film called Luck a while ago, had a lot of similar concepts - not saying it's the same, but still. There are other examples as well.)

However, I enjoyed this. Would I watch it again? Maybe not. Is it incredible... No. It's got a good cast, a fun story, and the effects aren't egregiously bad. In fact, I thought they were fairly good, which is not too surprising coming from Jim Henson Co.

The main co-stars were cute together. I enjoyed the little budding romance they shared.

Overall, it was a nice, chill movie to watch that didn't make me upset about anything after I woke up, and allowed me to distract from my crippling physical pain, as much as media can do that. That's always a plus for me in this world.

I enjoyed this a lot. It was wonderfully imaginative and charming.

How I rate:
1-3 ❤ = seriously! don't waste your time
4-6 ❤ = you may or may not enjoy this
7-8 ❤ = I expect you will like this too
9-10 ❤ = movies and TV shows I really love!

I really don’t get the target audience for this
it was kind of a good film but was weird and i don’t get the whole goblin thing
But i did fall asleep in the middle so maybe it’ll make sense to other people

this is fine.

easy watch with the kiddo's
think I found it a little more enjoyable than fantastic beasts

This was very very cute. Just the ending that really kind of nose dived. How could a Great Wizard not do something some junior could? If you watch you'll understand. Felt like the ending should've been a little more on track with the rest of the storyline.

It's kind of a kids movie, but probably 9-14 and plenty entertaining for the adults. Enough to come close to a 7, but not quite.

For kids, 7.8 out of 10, 8+ if fans of wizard/magic movies.

6.5 overall.

it had the potentials to be a great movie

Very slooooow moving. Very average.

I don't know who this was made for - maybe teenagers?

The concept seemed good, some great actors (new and old), some good sets, let down a little I think by some of the creatures at one point...but it was just not as interesting as it should have been (to the point where I struggled to stay awake)

So lots of points for the concept, not to much for the execution
