Open Up: Three-Year-Old Tiger is really entertaining. I find it appealing as an adult because I like the story. It is really cute. I specifically like the scenes with the clay. I think a child would like this because it is really entertaining and it shows animals like tigers and mice. It is from Taiwan with dialogue in Chinese and English subtitles.
The storylines starts with a girl and her stuffed tiger. Then we see a girl who is like a mime acting like a tiger. Next, two boys dressed like tigers are at the zoo. They all sing a song about a tiger and a mouse.
The story flows really well and makes sense. The lion and the mouse develop because the lion is scared of the mouse because it looks so big but the mouse comes out of the dark and looks normal again and the tiger is no longer afraid. The story really drew me in, especially when the tiger runs away from the mouse. The images are very clear and easy to identify. The visuals are really kid-friendly and bright. It is a live action film with some animation. For example, when it has clay animals. The visuals are really kid friendly and bright. It invites the viewer to problem solve when they are trying to figure out what is chasing the lion. It gives us insight into Chinese culture.
The film's message is that things may not be what they seem. The dialogue is in Chinese with English subtitles which are really easy to read.
I give Open Up: Three-Year-Old Tiger 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 2 to 5. By Janie R., KIDS FIRST!

A girl is walking in the park with her tiger stuffed animal, humming the Hakka children's song Three-year-old Tiger adapted from the world-famous tune Frère Jacques. She sits down under a tree for shade. Then, a clown with tiger makeup appeared in the scene, using exaggerated body movements to act out the keywords of the lyrics. Next, two boys dressed as tigers go to the zoo to see various animals, especially their favorite tigers. At this moment, a lump of clay rolls out and turns into a three-year-old tiger. It runs away because it's scared of a mouse's shadow. Finally, the scene returns to the park, where the girl and the two boys play hide-and-seek to the song of Three-year-old Tiger.
