The green Verdies are the tiny, but brave guardians of the lakeside. The young Verdies only become guardians when their hair turns brown. Until then, however, life is boring. The youngsters with green hair are not allowed to fly on warblers, not allowed to row alone, and they're not allowed to ride wild frogs at the rodeo. Willy Whistle's big dream is to become a guardian, but his curiosity always gets him into trouble. However, the whole lake becomes at risk when the enemies of the lakeside, the Grimps and the swans, enter into alliance. The guardians are helpless, but Willy comes up with a daring plan in order to save his home and his trapped friend, Jeremiah Jump. Luckily he is not alone, because Grandpa, the water snakes and the frogs also come to his aid.

Mtime网友：这个题材，做成这样，真的很不容易了。尤其是，影片在影像上非常有特点，大量的特写镜头、跟拍、手持，以及碎片式剪辑，营造出强烈的恐慌与不安感。这种情绪，其实就是角色在片中的情绪，它以影像的方式，最直接延伸给观众。
丢豆网网友：一个好的导演，是会调教演员的，知道演员的优势在哪里。《湖畔传说》像极了一道来自异域的夏日甜品，虽然不是主菜的配置，但却也有着勾人的独特风情。坦白说，最初的确是冲着Zsolt Pálfi 导演的名号看的，毕竟人家讲故事的功力摆在那里，但一开始就入了坑也是我怎么都没料到的。
豆瓣网网友：放在豆瓣语境下，是部时至今日终于拍出来的其它 “高分动漫”。拿现实题材拍商业类型片，社会意义摆在那，群戏也处理得相当不错。对其它 而言，这样的电影多一部是一部，走一步是一步。
