 Takes you to Holland and the Zeider Zee.May 10, 2010
The story of a young-man and his family who live in Holland along the Zeider-Zee (Southern-Sea).
Filmed in Holland and Sweden with Dutch actors / ice-skaters. Disney-color.
Hans is poor. The girl he loves is wealthy. The girl's father wants her to date only wealthy boys. The wealthy rival gives Hans trouble.
Half of Holland was once ocean; made into dry farmland, by building dikes / dams, and draining the water by windmill-driven-pumps into canals. One city in Holland reaches 23-feet below sea-level.
A story of action, adventure, friendships, and family. Will Hans win the 26-mile ice-skating race and the prize-money he needs?
The other version is good too. They are different enough that seeing one does not take-away from the other.
Fantastic movie!Dec 24, 2009
This is a great movie of a Classic book. Our children really enjoyed the movie and couldn't wait to watch it again. It is a new family favorite!

Charming Disney FilmAug 06, 2009
My 4 yr old granddaughter and I just watched it this morning. We loved it. The actors (especially the children) are extremely well cast. They may not be "normal" Hollywood performances (obnoxious precocious child actors), but (perhaps) the innocence and honesty they convey is just what this film needed. Rony Zeaner is excellent as Hans Brinker. I tried but could find no mention of his name anywhere online except with this production. He may have felt he gave his best performance and simply walked away from it all. People have discredited this movie because it did not follow the book. Okay, go read the book, if you like. If everyone avoided movies that didn't follow a book's storyline, then a lot of very good movies (including many classics) would fall into that catagory. That would be a shame.
excellent purchaseApr 05, 2009

 Hans Brinker..... a classic!Jan 20, 2009
I love this movie! I remember being very young (early seventies) and going to see this movie with my whole 2nd grade class. And now to be able to see this again after so many years, bring brings back great momories. Oh sure, the acting is not academy award worthy, but it's message and it's feel-good ending is what this movie is all about. And watching this also reminds me of Sunday nights in front of the television watching Disney movies.... So order this movie, sit back an let yourself remember when life was innocent.
