I didn’t even recognise Tom Felton - I mean damn - his acting is first class to say the least - great movie great acting - a mixture of the Afterdark Princess (a series of books I enjoyed as a child) and Insidious (the only horror movie I’ve managed to sit all the way through) sprinkle in some comedic value and you have yourself a tame-ish movie for kids to enjoy and maybe even be introduced slightly into scarier genres My 4 year old loves this movie and we’ve watched it together 4 or 5 times in the last 3 days from their request alone. The casting diversity is fantastic our heroine being a young black woman - her passion for STEM subjects is also incredibly important - the conflict and resolution while predictable is understandable for a movie aimed at children and the subtle sequel set ups are appreciated for sure - not to mentioned the special effects in the movie aren’t cheesy or overly realistic. The Toadies provide a much needed comic relief. I hope so very much that there will be a sequel!
