It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

I am as I say a fan of animation, there are films and shows I love, some I hate. W.I.T.C.H is one of those shows I actually love. I don't quite put it up there with the best, but it is one of the better animated shows of the past decade or so.The animation is done with lots of detail. The backgrounds have an ethereal quality to them, and the colours are both vibrant and atmospheric. The character designs are also believable, as are the transformation sequences.I love good music. W.I.T.C.H has that. Not only in the fitting background music, but also the theme tune is catchy, cool and sets the tone of the series very well.Also W.I.T.CH is very well-written. W.I.T.C.H has humour without it ever becoming slapsticky or clichéd, but there is also room for the dramatic and tense parts which are done effectively without overdoing it.W.I.T.C.H benefits from engaging stories with relateable themes and interesting characters with personalities that don't grate and are unique.Voice acting is also strong, the lead quintet consist of five very promising voice actresses who couldn't have been more perfect for their parts, and the support roles are dynamic.Overall, love it. 10/10 Bethany Cox

W.I.T.C.H has a lot of qualities similar to Sailor Moon, Labyrinth and a hint of Captian Planet. I think it's a great show for kids. As far as children's shows go it's pretty good. It doesn't talk down to children and yet it has life lessons about team work and friendship without being obnoxiously preachy.For a children's show the plots are surprisingly intricate and complex and the villains have enough depth and sympathy where you can understand their points of view. You have to watch it with an innocent mind, with the heart of a child. Yes, there are similar shows but when you're a child this sort of thing is still very new and very fun.The main idea is there are five girls, each with power over a specific element. They are guardians, protectors of this world and a magical other world called Miridian, ruled by a wicked, immortal sorcerer named Phobos. The title is the initials of all the five heroes.Of course good triumphs over evil and there are some fun and fantastic moments. It's perfect for all children and people of any age for that matter.

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.

I read a lot of reviews saying how it's coping Sailor Moon, but the thing is, that its not. W.i.t.c.h. is it's own show with its own characters and plot and the genre is that of a magical girl series, which is very common in Japan, so why not Italy & Disney? However, there are some changes from the comics that I like. For example, in the comics it didn't take Cedric that long to bring Elyon to Metaworld, but in the series, it was a while before it was even revealed that Elyon was the Princess of Meridian & went with Cedric only after feeling betrayed by her friends & family when she witnessed the guardians transformation and her parents true forms. Also, Elyon was nicer in the series then the comics.Another one of my pet-peeves that I had while reading reviews was that someone compared W.i.t.c.h. to Captain Planet just because the powers are the same. They're called the four elements of magic or alchemy. ALso Will's power is the fifth element called Quintessence.Lastly, I would like to say to all of you who say that it's a Winx Club copy or Harry Potter copy, have you ever seen an episode of W.i.t.c.h.? Because if you have you would see that W.i.t.c.h. has nothing at all to do with either of them as it doesn't take place at a school of magic, but 5 teens battling evil in another world. Sure they transform like Winx, but the guardians grow older after words. All in all W.i.t.c.h. is one of the best shows by Disney, a 10 out of 10!
