Pretty much lacks and feels low budget
Angels_Review5 April 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Well, Winx Club is pretty much a magical girl show with fairies instead of solar planets as their powers. Now, I have a little problem with the opening in that they do not explain much about what is going on. We get the girls going to a spooky castle dressed in strange capes. When they take the capes off, it looks like they are naked under them. They don't explain how Ms. Faragonda ended up finding the girls and teleporting right in front of the person the winx was looking for. A lot of things seem broken but part of it might be there was one before this. I still think that a movie should be able to stand alone or have something that would explain more about this.

The whole first part of this is Bloom feeling sorry for herself and her problems without any let up. She show just keeps going downhill to me. The next part is just her going back to normal with her adopted family, and then it feels like nothing really gets resolved at in the first part. The only thing that changes things is the dream that Bloom has. It's the standard dream of someone from her past talking to her. They could have done this a bit sooner in the show and it wouldn't seem so boring.

This shows a lot that boys will be boys too. A lot of times the boys started acting rather immature. The enemy is really pathetic. She's whiny and always narrates her actions. I also want to hit Stella too, she is more annoying then the cartoon.

A lot of times, they fad in and out in different areas and makes the show rather choppy. If they were going to do that, then The 3D version of everyone doesn't really look good. I think it would have been much better if it was done in the style of the actual cartoon instead. It just feels like it lacks something to it. The characters act rather oddly sometimes and move around rather stiffly. The hair looks rather wet and messed up.

The script sounds really off for how the characters talk in the show. The script seems rather rushed and Lip movements don't always work right. It just bothers me. We also really don't need a narrator for both the beginning and ending. It just feels disjointed again.

A great movie that completes the story with the first three series
elinevandenborren10 November 2016
I think the people who gave this movie a low rating, probably have never seen any series of it.

I loved Winx club so much when I was a kid, I had seen all episodes (of the first three series) a few more times and when I saw their first movie in theaters, I found it a perfect sequel of the third series and it was a great and magical adventure and here are the reasons why:

  • Bloom is searching for her biological parents (king Oritel and queen Marion of Domino). In the first series, she discovered she was adopted and where she really came from, in the second series, she wanted to know more about them, and in the third series, she discovered who them has captured. Now in this movie, Bloom tries to find them!


  • The beginning is exciting. It starts with an action scene in a dark castle.


  • Flora, Stella, Musa, Tecna and Layla are graduated at Alfea.


  • It has a perfect mix of humor and drama.

Possible reasons for lower ratings and things that make it unique
annabast9810 June 2012
The secret the lost kingdom has become on of my favorite movies. The point of it was to tie up lose ends from the show but leave room for it to expand; in my opinion, they did an excellent job. While the fans being unused to the cgi graphics , the people who do not watch the show's lack of character background and plot understanding, and the dubs which cut parts and change lines, or aim it for a younger audience have caused this movie to be rated lower, but I believe that if you keep an opened mind and watch the original Italian version with subs this movie is great. This movie along with the show are unique you have real friendship really being shown, relationship trouble, actual violence but leaving out the blood and gore, and having balance of the fantasy with the modern twist. While critics dislike the movie because of an over emphasized version of beauty we have today in these characters they fail to realize they are cgi versions of cartoon characters, so in other words THEY'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE DETAILED AND LOOK REALISTIC! In cartoons the artists like exaggerate features creating a cartoon look, and if in the movie they looked completely different, the show's fans, which is the major fan base, would not recognize the characters and most likely bring even more hate to the movie. Also critics mention some of the beauty references which in most cases are Stella's lines. Stella is a play off the stereotype of "a dumb blond" but one of the shows purposes was that she is obsessed with shopping and fashion while still being a funny loyal and smart friend.

Gorgeous!
brookenichole-9805412 February 2021
Winx Club: Secret of the Lost Kingdom is breathtaking! The animation is drawn to perfection while adding little intricate details. Many things shocked me: the story was genuinely great, the voice acting was fantastic, the music was catchy, and the romance was adorable! I enjoyed getting to see Musa and Riven. Even Sky and Bloom were very sweet. Of course the other couples were cute, too! Also, the action was intense! It was over the top and I loved it! I was pleasantly surprised with this adaption of Winx! Even though it's been years, I hope they will make more soon!

When this movie first came out, it sure was something new. It was the first Winx Club movie & I loved it. It was so different to see these characters on 3D. Also loved the storyline!

An amazing movie
ferdinandoduberfo24 September 2022
This movie was incredible. It had a lot of amazing and soothing songs and the animation is stunning! Seeing Enchantix in 3D was truly magical and the details were phenomenal. The story line was easy to follow, and it was really cool seeing the winx in 3D especially the fight scenes. They looked like actual guardian fairies fighting against evil without thinking twice. Seeing the girls growing up in their friend group and having each others back really embodies what winx is to me

This is a movie that you can just watch and enjoy while forgetting all your problems. It has funny jokes and shows the girls individual powers when they are fighting.

Amazing!
rosywu5 August 2022
The story, ost, animation, and characters were all written so nicely! I actually loved seeing musa and riven being so sweet to each other. Sky and Bloom trusting each other and the others too! Pixels were so cute. The fight scenes were really intense and strong! I truly loved it though. Stella and her little jokes are some of the things that i will love. Overall, I loved the movie so much!

Great movie and good finish for the story of three deasons
kalatomas30 April 2023
I really loved Winx Club as a child (and I still do and no matter what that I'm 23), i was almost obsessed by it.

I saw all episodes (which came out in Czech language that time) of the show and was excited when I heard that it has a movie, I had to see it. And the Secret of the Lost Kingdom was amazing.

Show has stunning plot, fantastic 3D animation and, same as the original show, great songs

The plot is about our favorite fairy group Winx Club, going on dangerous adventure to protect the magic world from evil forces and restore the glory of destroyed kingdom Domino (Sparx).

Whenever I remember this movie, first thing, which come to my mind, is the beggining of the show. It starts in the middle of action, which on first feel looks like some horror, even the.music engances the felling. And then the Enchantix song started and everything was so brigth and colorful, so you knew you really watch Winx Club.

The film is very good, and even it has some little flaws, still deserves 10/10 rating. Such good experiemce Must recommend to either fans of Winx Club or even new viewers.
