BBG News

As a seasoned gamer and animation enthusiast with over two decades of experience under my belt, I must say that diving into the magical world of Lumbria in “Spellbound” was nothing short of enchanting! The film’s unique blend of fairy tale elements and modern storytelling resonated deeply with me.

The enchanting movie titled “Spellbound,” featuring Rachel Zegler and Nicole Kidman, can now be streamed on Netflix.

The animated movie chronicles Princess Ellian’s (Zegler) journey to restore unity in the enchanted land of Lumbria following a sorcerous rift, while maintaining secrecy about her royal parents, who have transformed into wild animals due to the curse – voiced by Javier Bardem and Kidman.

After a prolonged period, the film “Spellbound” – boasting the vocal talents of John Lithgow, Jenifer Lewis, and Nathan Lane – is now available globally on Netflix. Viewers can now embark on a journey into the enchanting land of Lumbria.

Critics have also shared their opinions about the animation, which has been led by Vicky Jenson, who directed movies like Shrek and Shark Tale. The response so far has been mixed, with Spellbound currently having a 58% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on the first 12 reviews.

The Wrap

It’s quite obvious, the animations appear more like they lack depth instead of being breathtakingly deep.

Screen Rant

The animated film “Spellbound” fails to convey its message effectively, taking an excessive amount of time, and disappoints in other aspects, resulting in a lackluster impact on the narrative.

Loud and Clear Reviews

Every great fairy tale needs a compelling main character who resonates with all ages, and Princess Ellian fits this description perfectly. She embodies the spirit of today’s strong-willed princesses yet retains a touchable fragility that makes her relatable.

Common Sense Media

As a gamer, I find “Spellbound” truly special because it handles crucial family matters in a manner that resonates with kids, making these topics accessible and relatable.

MovieWeb

Spellbound captivates with enchanting performances of song and dance, weaving an insightful tale that mirrors the complexities of fractured families. This digitally crafted musical adventure employs tunes reminiscent of Disney and magical storybook elements to subtly convey challenging lessons about maturing and growing up.

Collider

Featuring an illustrious ensemble bringing the characters/creatures to life and a visionary crew infusing fresh ideas into the storyline, the film Spellbound promises to tie up the year 2024 in a captivating package.

Spellbound is streaming on Netflix now.
