The Nutcracker and the Four Realms

The Nutcracker and the Four Realms is Disney’s latest entry in the live-action segment of the studio, and is dual directed by Lasse Hallström and Joe Johnston.

Starring Mackenzie Foy, Jayden Fowora-Knight, Helen Mirren, Morgan Freeman, Keira Knightley, Richard E. Grant, and featuring a guest appearance by Prima Ballerina Misty Copeland, Disney is making an early bid for holiday movie-goers.

But is The Nutcracker and the Four Realms a tasty treat of tradition or a sour candy of cash-grab?
