Movie Review: Mary and the Witch's Flower

Movie: Mary and the Witch's Flower
Genere: Animation, Fantasy
Netflix

What can be said about this charming movie, then if Studio Ghibli were to close then this studio (Studio Ponoc) would be the heir apparent. The style is fantastic and a great family movie, the art, and the animation have the very essence of Hayo Miyazaki in every frame.

Synopsis: Mary Smith just moved into a new town with her great Aunt as most of the families are on holiday there are very few children she can play with. Mary is a good girl who wants to help, even though she has the heart, the skill is very lacking. With all the accidents she causes. She comes upon a strange flower that unlocks an adventure that she would hardly forget.

The characters of Mary, Aunt Margret, Peter and the antagonists are all well fleshed out. You learn about them later on in the movie and their motivations are hardly pure. Not one character felt flat or two dimensional or even lacking in a personality, if they can do this in an animated movie then they could do it better in the Star Wars Movies (read my review of The Last Jedi). Remember I will not spoil it for you and if you have watched it, then please comment on your favorite part.


Rating: WATCH IT NOW WITH YOUR KIDS OR BY YOURSELF!
