This movie is not spectacular, but is good at balancing many things at once. It kept me entertained, made me smile, informed me, and is overall a cute movie. A good blend.
Plot: Based on the real history of the match girls, a bit of historical knowledge is always welcome, and here, it makes all the difference in creating a memorable storyline.
Story picks up after about 45 minutes and becomes more interesting and fast-paced. Easy to follow logic.
Wish they dived more into Enola's mother's work, as they left this "loose end" ( ;) ) open after the first movie.
Characters: Likeable, but nothing too extraordinary. Enola is especially charming and brings heart and uniqueness to the movie.
Acting: Well done, but again, nothing too extraordinary given the type of movie it is.
Aesthetic: Beautiful and charming costumes, sets, and little animations throughout.
- A high-stakes case with well-placed, light humor
- Sprinklings of romance that are cute but don't detract from the plot
