    Cute family movie

    I came across streaming for free and I thought of

    Giving it a chance. It was entertaining and the two

    Kids playing their roles were great. It was great

    Seeing Denise Richards in this movie. I think

    She looked great and she had a very nice role.

    The movie is obviously intended for children.

    It has a great storyline and a cute doggy as past of

    their cast. So if you like fantasy movies involving

    Kids, then I think it's a great movie. Cute storyline.

    I really enjoyed it and I would love to see the

    Sequel. There seems to be a sequel to this first

    Installment. All in all, a very nice family movie.

    It had potential

    This isn't a horrible movie, but it also is not a good movie. The storyline is good, with enough backstory to carry the plot along. However a completely lackluster script destroys the movie. The younger actors outperform the adults. (Although in this movie that doesn't take much). Everything just comes across as flat. There definitely is potential there but the movie just never excels. It is a shame, because it is a wholesome movie, but just no oomph to capture a child's attention or keep an adult's. Well, not much more to say other than to ramble to meet the minimum number of characters required.

    Bad!

    Terrible acting by the two kids and even though I respect and like Denise Richards, this does not do her justice! There's a part where Willow is reading Elliot a part of the book ( 44 minutes in) and is saying about a warlock coming to the town and taking revenge. It then shows the page she is reading from and her finger moving along, pause it, you can then read about a conversation between King Arthur and Lancelot!! Nothing to do with warlocks and witches. The acting of these two is very amateur, and its no wonder they've only done 7 movies/TV between them. The person who give this movie a 9 and raved about it has certainly led a sheltered life OR was part of this drabble of a movie!

    Great Suspense & Fun

    Ignore the comments made by teen boys about this movie, this movie is not for them. It was made for a family audience and is a wonderful story about friendship filled with lots of mystery and adventure that kids from 5-12 will really enjoy. Young Elliott moves with his mom, Denise Richards, to a new small town. There he meets the mysterious Willow a self professed witch and town outcast. Together they go on a fun adventure to save the town from a witches curse. It's a great movie to watch in late Fall as the Fall colours are really beautiful, and lend to the spirit of Halloween. The kids are really great in this film, our kids really enjoyed watching them. The bad guy Mr. Hexenmeister is also very well played. We highly recommend this movie for your entire family.

    One Of The Best Family Films!

    Our entire family really enjoyed this terrific adventure story. Such superb acting from two young performers, especially the girl, what a hoot she was. I expect we'll be seeing more from her in the future. This is a great story filled with twists and turns as two bright kids work together to unravel a deeply held town secret and save it from destruction. Lot's of great locations and well done visual effects make this film a real feast for the viewer. Denise Richards is as beautiful as ever as the mom and investigative journalist. This is a very well written and intelligent script, filled with a lot of laughs. We loved the dog, hilarious!
