Upside-Down Magic

It's great what this book/movie is trying to teach the children of this generation. The whole mantra of this move is self acceptance and finding your own power especially for kids who might not fit in or have learning disabilities. Teaches acceptance and tolerance and Lays foundations of good morals and ethics and life skills. it gladdens me to see movies like this now a days.

My son and I are huge fans of the books and was expecting so much more from this I only gave it a 3 because my son still enjoyed parts of the movie but for me it was a huge disappointment They missed out several important characters, the fact Nory went to live with her aunt and also changed some characters powers completely For me it was a complete let down when it had so much potential to be something special

When I first saw the trailer I thought "ugh. Just a Disney Harry Potter knock off" but then I tried the movie and it was nothing like Harry Potter! I have watched this movie twice because I enjoyed it so much! The 2nd time I showed my mom and she enjoyed it too! I would suggest it to ages under 14ish.

Best friends Nory and Reina are excited to go to magic school, Sage Academy for Magical Studies. The students are divided into five classes depending on their magical abilities. Reina is a fire starter and joins the Flare class. Nory transforms into animals which means that she is supposed to join the Fluxer class. She cannot hold onto a single shape and is instead sent to Upside-Down Magic. She joins three other misfits who cannot do their abilities in a traditional way. They are expected to wear down their magic until they can return to the world as nobodies.

I actually like this Disney TV movie for kids. The message is good. The kids are good and sweet. The production is fine for a TV movie. I don't know anything about the books and I don't want to know. It's fine. It's very fine.

I can get why they didn't make it like the book but at least make a bit similar to it, make the plot lines similar or something, i absolutely despise this movie if 2nd grade me saw this they would be so sad because of how much of a disappointment this movie is. If you like this movie what is wrong with you. Even the characters are nothing like how they were in the books, you can picture Elliot as some cool dude not some weird idiot. you can picture Andres as a nerd with no control over anything but again in the movie they make him into some perfect boy who ends up with the main character. Oh and don't get me started with all the character that were cut, All of the characters were cut except Nora Andres, Elliot and Pepper. and they turn the nice inspiring teacher into the opposite of what she was a boy who is janitor who puts the students down on their weird magic instead of putting them up.
