The Nutcracker Prince/YMMV


 * Complete Monster:
 * What the Mouse King of this version would have been had we not seen him return Clara's slipper to Clara the next night, hinting some hint of (somewhat perhaps grudging) kindness, which shows a small displaying hint of a Jerk With a Heart of Gold.
 * However, he swings right back into Complete Monster territory when he threatens to kill Clara's kitten if she doesn't hand over the Nutcracker.
 * The latter is justified as when Clara offered him some chocolates (despite first glance at distrusting before she reassured him), she did trap him and crushed his tail in the progress and took that fury out in forcing her to decide.
 * However, fans debate whether he truly is a monster or just a hidden jerk with a heart of gold persona, but still, Your Mileage May Vary.
 * The Mouse Queen fits this trope when the film shows how abusive she can be to her son and doesn't care much about him.
 * Cult Classic: By far one of the better adaptations of the story.
 * Mouse World: Some people and fans tend to view the mice from this.
 * Nice Mice: Subverted as despite many of the mice are more sillier than both the Mouse King and his mother, they are still loyal to their king and try to attack the toys.
 * Nightmare Fuel: During the climax of the film
 * What an Idiot!: The royal family don't notice the Mouse Queen transforming Hans into a nutcracker and just assume that he was a nutcracker right from the start and that Drosselmeier was trying to con them in some way.
 * Well, given that they were more or less paying attention to their daughter's recovery than what the Mouse Queen did, it shouldn't be a surprise.
