A great opening scene and an amusing end scene aside, <em>'The House of Magic'</em> isn't anything I'll remember with that much fondness. I will say the animation is much better than I had anticipated, it's nothing near a high level but it is absolutely fine; nothing bad about it in truth. The cast are serviceable if forgettable, I wouldn't say any of them are better or worse than their colleagues - which I suppose is a minor positive, given no-one grates with their voice performance. I found that the mesh of plots didn't work as good as it possibly could have, granted it isn't terrible but we don't really get enough of either in my opinion. A bit of magic and a bit about the cat's story, it ends up just becoming a standard lacklustre and predictable villain-centric plot.… Expand

I love animated films, watch them all the time. But with all films I give them 10min and if they don't impress then it's on to the next movie. This film didn't make 5min sorry! I have an 8 year old daughter, and I believe children will rise to the next level if encouraged to do so in a safe and loving environment and watching things a 2 year old could understand is not going to help them grow or mature either intellectually or emotionally.… Expand
