Ella and the Little Sorcerer

I can't recommend anybody spend money taking their kids to see this, your money and time would be better spent on nearly anything.

Honestly I've seen better animation and voice acting in shows made entirely for YouTube by 1 or 2 people. Cineplex should be embarrassed by this, it's bad to the point that even my 3 and 5 year old kept asking when it would be over. I could forgive the nonsense story, the lacklustre animation and the middle school play quality voice acting if my kids had enjoyed it even a little. At least they enjoyed the popcorn.

Really, truly terrible. My five-year-old barely made it through as well. At first I thought this was a sequel and maybe we missed the first instalment... but no, the story just made no sense. The characters were introduced haphazardly and the dialogue was atrocious. I think the script was written in a different language and they used Google Translate to turn it into English.

It's no wonder movie theatres are dying if this is the sort of garbage they are showing. If I go out and spend money on tickets, snacks, etcetera, I expect at lease the absolute bare minimum amount of effort to be put into the movie.

What a waste of time and money. Watch anything else. The animation is terrible the voices don't line up with the animation and my 6 year old most importantly didn't like it and it. And it looks a bit like frozen so that's saying a lot.

I saw it with my little girl who is 6 years-old, and she liked it! The cinema was filled with kids....might have been around 70 or 80 kids. It was fun, exciting and the kids were commenting on the scenes.

It was a lovely little story about friendship, confidence, honor & loyalty. Sure its not Disney, Dreamworks or even Pixar quality, but for an indie-animated film designed for children, I thought it was quite good.

This time around, its girls who are front and center throughout the whole film and they have to look after themselves, instead of a macho or smarter fella showing up to show them how to make it on their adventure. Some of the characters make mistakes....and pay for them. Like real life, you learn from your mistakes and more importantly; own up to them.

Not sure why this movie is getting so much hate. Like said, its for children. Just by looking at the poster or even photo stills, you can tell its not for older children.

If you have small kids, give it try. I think they might dig it. Just like my beautiful little girl did =D Ella was a brave girl. Good message for kids. Especially little girls.

Terrible movie. Poorly written and some inappropriate language. In the final fight scene, they use the term "wench" which is of course a synonym for prostitute.
