A Spell Gone Awry...
I hardly know where to begin, but since it involves acting, lets start there.
The lead actress just seems lost in this role. The acting is - in a word - poor. And unfortunately, this applies to the entire cast, which is a bad thing in a series. It almost feels like this is everyone's first acting job. The series as a whole is simply another teen-driven series, but without the finesse one could hope.
The location is Paris, and yet no one actually speaks French - including the director of the ballet school. How is this even remotely realistic?
I'm sure the demographic is vastly younger than me, but that is not a deterrent (Harry Potter was also not my demographic, and i loved the films). To like this, one has to overlook the poor acting, the plot and the premise of the film, which is held in the title. I can see someone giving this a 6, but the 10s are, I think, optimistic. As is this entire series with its implausible, giggling cast.
