Jo'lene Smit

I enjoyed the portrayal of Sophi as a character who doesn't fit the traditional beauty standard, emphasizing her plainness and average appearance. In contrast, Howl is depicted as very beautiful, reflecting his popularity. Their love develops over time, focusing on their inner qualities rather than external beauty, ahead of its time for this concept. The exploration of jealousy and the true reason for Sophie's misfortune is compelling. The scenes where the characters become young again are particularly intriguing, highlighting the importance of self-perception. The film emphasizes that being youthful, happy, and cheerful makes one young at heart, key to breaking the curse. Love is depicted as the ultimate solution, along with a complex exploration of its meaning. I appreciated the flawed nature of the male characters and the reminder not to judge based on appearance, even affecting the stick man. Lastly, the portrayal of the challenges of aging deepened my respect for the elderly. The magical elements made this story truly an adventure. Definitely a movie I recommend, I hope these type of story tellings continues.

The movie was disappointing, terrible and just painful to watch. Can't believe that people would invest in such bull. The illuminati thing just ruined everything. It made it sick to watch, it wasn't funny, it wasn't interesting. Felt like tourture watching it to the end. Hated it period.. No respect for the original and I lost respect for actors after this.

Still one of the best movies I have ever watched. Period. It is still intense till this day. Powerful and real. The actors were my favorite part of the movie. The little girl who said the prophecy was beyond creepy without trying too hard. It was real.

This not only makes you see things in a black person perspective but it also places you inside of the black person mind. Not just in one shade but in every black shade possible. Placing a non-black person into our shoes. It moves from screen to screen giving a different way of telling a story, untraditional way. It brings a colourful shade and powerful message of realness. Poetic justice. It talks about sensitive topics and brings up raw words that grabs your attention. There is so much truth in it, that it looks like a fake plot but there so much truth. There is a voice in that series for every type of blackness. IT has definitely inspired me in more ways than one. I love it.
