**The problem with this film is in the plot: starting from a wrong premise, the whole plot ends up going wrong.** There are certain films that we, even with all our good will, cannot find that fulfill what is necessary to be decent. This movie is one of them, and it's almost entirely to blame for a sadly poorly written plot, which pushes all the barriers of logic to create a story without any meaning. Normally, I save the technical aspects of a film for the end of my reviews, but this time it's precisely here that Ill start, because in fact it's in the production values and the visual effects and CGI that the film seems to me the most well-crafted. The movie doesn't have a good budget, but the effects are believable and look good enough. The settings aren't a problem either, being a story set in our time, and in an uncertain location in the American Midwest. The editing is regular, the pace is pleasant, and the music does what it needs to. The cast is mostly female, with the best performances coming from the hands of Elizabeth Mitchell and Gideon Adlon. There are still some other actresses who try to do what they can, but the youth of the cast does not allow for great dramatic efforts, nor does the lightness of the film truly demand it. But what really defeats this film is its plot: the film tries to recreate, in our time, the witch hunt fever that existed, occasionally, in some places in Christendom during the 15th to 17th centuries. This movement has more ancient roots: the Christian religion has always condemned the practices of witchcraft, and there are laws against witches in many ancient societies and civilizations, all the way back to the Roman Empire. The last woman to be officially executed for witchcraft in Europe was in 1782, and there are still modern countries, especially those with an Islamic religion, that formally condemn witchcraft in their penal codes. It just so happens that it just doesn't make any sense to try to recreate the witch hunt in a country like the USA, so openly democratic and defender of the individual freedoms of citizens. Even if we assume that magic exists and witchcraft is real (and there are many people today who believe this), it is inconceivable that a democratic country could ban magic or the practice of witchcraft, even for negative purposes. It's almost like forbidding someone to swear and curse: as wrong as it may be, it's a right that no one can take away from me, if I'm not offending anyone. I find it inconceivable that the US Congress would pass a constitutional amendment banning witchcraft, and that undermines everything the film tries to do afterwards. It just doesn't make sense. Summary: The problem with this film is in the plot: starting from a wrong premise, the whole plot ends up going wrong.
Siblings Lucy, Edmund, Susan and Peter step through a magical wardrobe and find the land of Narnia. There, they discover a charming, once peaceful kingdom that has been plunged into eternal winter by the evil White Witch, Jadis. Aided by the wise and magnificent lion, Aslan, the children lead Narnia into a spectacular, climactic battle to be free of the Witch's glacial powers forever.
Captain Jack Sparrow works his way out of a blood debt with the ghostly Davy Jones to avoid eternal damnation.
A young girl, Chihiro, becomes trapped in a strange new world of spirits. When her parents undergo a mysterious transformation, she must call upon the courage she never knew she had to free her family.
Harry Potter has lived under the stairs at his aunt and uncle's house his whole life. But on his 11th birthday, he learns he's a powerful wizard—with a place waiting for him at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. As he learns to harness his newfound powers with the help of the school's kindly headmaster, Harry uncovers the truth about his parents' deaths—and about the villain who's to blame.
Cars fly, trees fight back, and a mysterious house-elf comes to warn Harry Potter at the start of his second year at Hogwarts. Adventure and danger await when bloody writing on a wall announces: The Chamber Of Secrets Has Been Opened. To save Hogwarts will require all of Harry, Ron and Hermione’s magical abilities and courage.
Year three at Hogwarts means new fun and challenges as Harry learns the delicate art of approaching a Hippogriff, transforming shape-shifting Boggarts into hilarity and even turning back time. But the term also brings danger: soul-sucking Dementors hover over the school, an ally of the accursed He-Who-Cannot-Be-Named lurks within the castle walls, and fearsome wizard Sirius Black escapes Azkaban. And Harry will confront them all.
When Harry Potter's name emerges from the Goblet of Fire, he becomes a competitor in a grueling battle for glory among three wizarding schools—the Triwizard Tournament. But since Harry never submitted his name for the Tournament, who did? Now Harry must confront a deadly dragon, fierce water demons and an enchanted maze only to find himself in the cruel grasp of He Who Must Not Be Named.
Returning for his fifth year of study at Hogwarts, Harry is stunned to find that his warnings about the return of Lord Voldemort have been ignored. Left with no choice, Harry takes matters into his own hands, training a small group of students to defend themselves against the dark arts.
Ash, a handsome, shotgun-toting, chainsaw-armed department store clerk, is time warped backwards into England's Dark Ages, where he romances a beauty and faces legions of the undead.
As Lord Voldemort tightens his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds, Hogwarts is no longer a safe haven. Harry suspects perils may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle fast approaching. Together they work to find the key to unlock Voldemorts defenses and to this end, Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague Horace Slughorn, whom he believes holds crucial information. Even as the decisive showdown looms, romance blossoms for Harry, Ron, Hermione and their classmates. Love is in the air, but danger lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same again.
Abandoned by their parents, a young brother and sister try to find their way home. On the way, they find themselves trapped in the plot of a nasty witch.
