Les guerrières de la K-pop

It's like... Actually good? Like... Unironically? I did not expect that.

I totally thought this would be some trash trying to milk the KPop culture/fandom, but... I mean, it is that, no mistake about that, but it's not just a cash-grab. The story, if you think about it, is kind of simplistic and predictable, but I do not think it was aiming for something complex. It's a fairy tale. You know, like Snow White? What makes it stand out is the delivery.

The music is good. I am not a fan of KPop, aside maybe a couple of songs, and I can remember only one of them (I'm a Pop), but the songs sounded good to my ears with just a few moments sounding a bit off. Not as in "off-tune", but as in "do not fit" either overall song structure or what's happening on screen. Those are nitpicks, though. Totally not like Snow White.

Animation is great, the style overall. I really like that it's not taking itself or the pop culture too seriously, and expresses it through the goofy animations. But they are not just for giggles: they paint human (and humane) characters. Female characters, Disney, take note! The girls can kick some ass, they like to goof about, when they can, but at the same time, they do have their troubles (especially Rumi), and they overcome them together and go pursue their passions in order to give to the world.

Will this movie change the world as original Snow White did? Probably not. We live in a different world now, after all. But what it does is deliver a light-hearted and full-hearted story, which also delivers proper satisfaction when it ends, and may even inspire some kids. Because the movie shows good traits (and perseverance) and not just talks about them. I would even give it 9/10, docking 1 point only because I would have preferred a more fleshed-out story, if possible.

The movie offers a great explanation and reassurance that your insecurities and your mistakes do not make you who you are. It has some of the best twists I've seen in a long time. It allows a great look into Korean pop culture and the songs not only help with the plot but also aren't a typical Disney song. The animation is stunning and beautiful. My only complaint is the lip sinc for some of the songs don't quite match up but to have a complete original movie that can be enjoyed by all audiences and never lags in plot, storytelling, or animation is what makes this movie so great. Also this movie took 9 years to make. People have put their blood, sweat, and tears into it. I just wish it was more available on other platforms.

This was AMAZING! I watched it out of curiosity more than anything and I ended up loving it! It is such a refreshing theme and concept. A bit like modern day girl power. Also reminded me at times of the powerpuff girls!

I don't really know or follow anything about KPop but this seems rammed full with K-pop culture references. Almost like a beginners guide.

The music is classic K-Pop though.

I just loved it. Probably not the most helpful review. But I really enjoyed so many aspects. The storyline, character development, relationship dynamics, the music, the production design... all of it!

I loved each individual female character as well.

Will definitely watch it again!

My favourite animated movie in a long time. Very refreshing and original idea. It was much deeper and meaningful than I thought it would be - I originally just anticipated to watch a surface level kids show but this is not that. I love the characters and the plot. The songs were so good too!! Let's not forget the amazing lyrics. The humour too! The only flaw is that there's no part 2 😭

If you're looking for a light hearted but meaningful movie with bangers to jam to, then this is the movie. All the songs are in my Spotify now haha.

I also would love to chat more about the underlying and subtle meanings about the kpop industry in general. I think this show is like a metaphor for what's currently going on there. Really great.

I walked into this expecting flashy visuals and a few catchy songs. I walked out emotionally wrecked, fully converted, and desperately trying to find the soundtrack.

This film is everything. The acting is next-level; every performance feels lived-in, even with all the genre craziness. These aren't just idols fighting demons, they're friends, sisters, legends in the making. I cared about every single one of them, which made every twist hit that much harder. The writing balances emotional depth with pop-culture fun. There are genuine character arcs, sharp humor, and moments of real heartbreak. It doesn't rely on tropes, it plays with them, elevates them. And the music. My god, the MUSIC. Not just earworms, these tracks are woven into the story. A power ballad becomes a battle cry. A training montage becomes a music video. A finale turns into a full-blown pop opera. It's genius.

Stylish, heartfelt, funny, fierce, and totally original. This isn't just a movie, it's a whole vibe. I'll be thinking about it (and rewatching it) for a long time.
