The Academy of Magic

This movie was so contrived and a blatant rip off of other movies that it was unwatchable. Wooden animation and voice overs, plot copied from elsewhere. I decided to fill in a questionnaire about my community on my phone instead, much more interesting!!!! Give it a miss.

Why are people hating on this movie? Its pretty above decent in my opinion. Yeah, maybe the animating can be whack at sometimes, but that doesn't affect the amazingness of it. Also, it might have a little reference from frozen (aura looks a bit too much like anna), Harry Potter (Snape and Dumbledore?? Weasly Twins?? Malfoy??), Baby Moses from the bible (what that baby doing???), Beauty and the Beast (the trapped grandpa dude??) and possibly even how to train your dragon (with that big pink dragon thing or wait omg maybe it was a reference to sleeping beauty with like that dragon and then OMG AURORA. AURA. Omg do you see the connection im literally so smart), but seriously, its not a completely rip off. It actually developed its own plot and storyline. I also need to mention the amazing soundtrack. Some of the pieces are lowkey fire. Also did I mention that the Shawn dude lowkey kinda hot. Anyways, thats not important. The build up to the climax is honestly top tier, and it does get pretttty intense. The climax itself is pretty anticlimactic though. Also I like how they just make characters stand in the back like they're not in the middle of a warzone. I also think this movie could honestly be passed as a comedy because of how freaking funny it is. That yellow robot thingy fits so well into the movie, and the lambert dude is honestly really funny. And, the twins being perfectly in sync was peak humor. So all in all, I highly recommend this movie for entertainment purposes, because truthfully, while I first watched it, I thought nothing about how "bad" it was (it wasn't even bad), I was genuinely having fun. I'd give it an 11/10 if I could. Also, my new motto in life is officially, apples are red, the color of money is green.

Story is fine but the animation is not great. Suitable only for kids and even they may struggle given the high quality of alternative animations available. Overall I wouldn't recommend.

Honestly it's so blatant that this cartoon is ripping off Harry Potter that it's honestly a surprise they haven't been sued.

See if this sounds familiar. A young person is gifted with magic, has a very distinctive scar, goes to a magical academy where they learn magic, has a dark haired teacher that gives them a hard time for yet known reasons and there's a blond bully who bullies them for being "common". Oh and there's a dark secret there that this young person and her friends must uncover. It's Harry Potter but with a girl in the lead role. And if that wasn't enough she bears a striking resemblance to Anna from Disney's "Frozen".

The animation is second rate and looks more like something you'd find in a cheaply made cartoon... which this is. It's cheap. The animation, while not terrible and I've seen worse, isn't good.

Honestly this isn't a good movie by any stretch. Sure. Kids will probably like it but what can you do?

It's just not a good cartoon or story.

Also somebody, or a group of somebodies, have attempted to game the system by voting this a "9" en masse. Didn't work. It's still only 3.3 or thereabouts.

From a magic mark on the skin, to ginger twins, blond bully who picks on our heroine for being common,to an intimidating dark haired teacher, this is an unbelievably bad rip off of Harry Potter but with the animation of Paw Patrol. AVOID!!
