W.I.T.C.H. Audience Reviews

TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
Jeanskynebu the audience applauded
Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
sagniashvili Before i start, as others have already mentioned, the W.i.t.c.h is frequently accused of copying Sailor moon, harry potter and even Winx club (which aired alongside the subject), this is an absurd.. The W.i.t.c.h is a very original craft, that children of both gender can watch and enjoy, it has teen drama, magic and well-made action scenes. From regular schoolgirls, that have to fight evil from another universe as faeries, down to brave rebels that fight along side the aforementioned girls. The characters are diverse and well-crafted. From a shy nerd, to a snobbish rich-kid, with playful artist in the middle. I just don't want to spoil anything. I advise you watch this and enjoy. I loved it as a kid, i love it now, as an adult.This is also based on a comic of a same name, that deviates from the TV-series in some details and is definitely worth reading, if one enjoys seeing similar concepts extended and shown with a bit some different details, and if one finds the fact that the cartoon has only two seasons to be a bit of a letdown.
LEXHENthefuzzy W.I.T.C.H is a show adapted from the Italian comic. (?) Already a huge fan of the comics I decided to give this a try. And I was glad I did.The first season was great in animation process. The girls who were given magic powers where enchanting and gothical. I loved the setup and the drama that took place between the characters with the shocking episodes 11 and 12. The ending didn't exactly disappoint either. And with that I waited for months on end for season 2.So It arrived and well....I didn't like it. Yes, it is meant to be more cheerful but somehow, it had lost its rich colours and came out quite bland. But it seems hat all animated shows had lost that rich colour that you see within the scenes so I rather forgot about and focused more on the drama and storyline. When I realised that my biggest letdown where the characters. Especially one called Cornelia. In the comic, she is a strong and powerful character. But in the cartoon, she has come across as dumb and ditzy. Showing that all blonde's are dumb which is utterly untrue. Another problem I had with this series is the storyline itself. A great start, a bland middle, then suddenly a whole bunch of shockers thrown together at the end, which unsettled me so I didn't enjoy it at all.If you were to put the two seasons together , they are both utterly different to the max. Its only the first season that keeps me watching for season 3.
Doug Keller I have to strongly disagree with some of the other reviews of this show. I am the father of three young girls and they all love W.I.T.C.H. The show revolves around five girls (the first letter of each of their names makes up the team name, W.I.T.C.H.) that have been selected as Guardiens of the Veil that protects Earth from a parallel universe (Meridian) and the evil (and some good) that resides there. Each girl has one power over the elements (Water, Earth, Wind, Fire) and additional powers they develop as the show goes on. The strength of this show is that it shows girls as powerful and capable. It also stresses teamwork and how to treat other people. Each character is developed to the point girls of many different backgrounds can relate to one of them. The character development is better than what you see in most movies nowadays! My girls even dressed up as W.I.T.C.H. this Halloween! There is some teenage "drama" (crushes, homework, parents, etc) in the script, but most of that blows right over my preteen girls. One character, Irma, has some great one-liners that usually only the parents get but they are hilarious (Q:"Why is it always so dark here on Meridian?" Irma's A:"It's time zones. Evil is five hours ahead of us!"). The girls parents have different jobs: Chinese Restaurant owner, Policeman, Judge, Divorced Mom-Executive, and one you never see but her parents are obviously very rich. There are a series of books and comic books that are based on the show and I read them to my girls...they love them. Boys will like the Rebels in the evil world who are fighting against the evil prince and his Henchmen. The rebel leader (also a teenager) has a sidekick that is kind of half-human, half-frog that never takes a bath and always smells...boys'll like him too. The animation is great, the music is catchy and the website can show you a lot more about the show. I love it. You will too!
heartlessmoon In a world of Sailor Moons, Tokyo Mew Mews, Wedding Peaches and Winx Clubs, it really is no wonder that Disney decided to jump onto the bandwagon as well.W.I.T.C.H could have easily become lost in this sea of magical little girl programs, but it doesn't. Due, of course to the success of the writing and characterization.Characters are not seen as flat, one dimensional cut outs of what they once were in the comics. Each of these girls is seen with at least some depth and personality and therefore come across identifiable with the show's target audience. The relationship between these girls is also realistic, they don't always get along, but the friendship is still present.The humor is there, and it works, it's not at all overbearing or annoying, but is present and very well done. All in all, the show is enjoyable for fans of all ages.But of course, there are flaws, the most obvious of which is the changing of certain character's behaviors in the transition from graphic novel to television show. Which, truly, would not have been a problem until the writers decided to maintain these character's relationships from the comics. Because of the change in personalities, these relationships simply do not work, and feel awkward and distracting when used in the show.In short, most of the key romances on the program come off as forced. For example, the coupling of Cornelia and Caleb, comes across as being the most superficial, contrived union to have ever been written into a script. To make up for the lack of a decent foundation on the character's part, the writers seem to resort to "sparkly" backgrounds and cheesy background music by means of actual chemistry. When it really wasn't like that in the books.Also, Will's behavior around her love interest Matt are a disgrace to her character, and often painful to watch. The once strong, awkward Will, turns into a stereotypical teenager at the sight of her crush. Making this too seem rushed and well...stupid.In short, the show was/is better without the couples. But hey, if Tokyo Mew Mew has taught us anything, it would be that couplings never turn out right.These issues aside, W.I.T.C.H is still a very enjoyable ride. Which I personally would recommend to anyone.
