This wonderful story happened in the age of valiant knights, beautiful princesses, and battling sorcerers. Ruslan, a wandering artist dreaming to become a knight, met beautiful Mila and fell in love with her; he didn’t even suspect that she is the King’s daughter. However, the lovers’ happiness wasn’t meant to last too long. Chоrnomor, the evil sorcerer, appeared in a magic vortex and stole Mila right before Ruslan’s eyes to transform her power of love into his own magic power. Without further ado, Ruslan sets out on a chase after the stolen princess to overcome all obstacles and to prove that real love is stronger than magic. (Студія Анімаград)

This was an average fairy tale that was neither bad nor was it entertaining. As far as the animation is concerned, I was most surprised by the repetitive inclusion of the first-person point-of-view shots. For example, unlike the slow-motion animation mentioned by others, I have never seen this in an animated movie before. It was so strange, sometimes a bit rushed (especially the ending) with a narrative that could perhaps entertain a child. In contrast, a grown-up probably would not find it very interesting. 5/10.
