I have a few notes about the movie. I did love it, yes. but there was a few things that did not add up. when Mary's aunt ran outside after Mary left to go try to save peter (the first time), I automatically made the assumption that she must have been the witch who stole the flower years ago. (as shown in the beginning of the movie) but if her aunt was a witch, why didnt Mary inherit any magic? it was obvious that they WERE related, hence the bright red hair that they both have. so did genes not carry out? or is magic not a gene that can be passed down? if it cant be passed down, what was the point of having a witch school? if magic cant be passed down, then how do the students get the magic in the first place? is it like random selection?
-Another note, about Peter. I felt bad for him throughout the movie. it wasn't his fault that he was brought into the mess, though, he didnt show Mary any distain for what she did in the end. but she DID try to blame him for the flowers in the first half of the movie.. and if she hadn't done that, then the principle/scientist/villain would not have been able to find his address and kidnap him. in retrospect that was what the movie needed to continue on, but if Mary had not disclosed where peter had lived, he would not have been brought into the mess. if I were him I would at least be a little bit mad about it all, since he ended up being used as a lab rat by the scientists.
-theres something to be said about their bond, however. She only knew Peter for a few days, yet they bonded immediately, despite him making a joke over something shes so deeply self-conscious about. i thought it was cute how when she went to save him (the first time) they made a promise to get out of there together. and it was so cute how she managed to keep that promise even when her magic ran out. (I DO NOT SHIP THEM, THATS NOT WHAT THIS IS ABOUT) but it was cute how they were so happy to see each other in the end.
-another note, if Mary ran out of magic, how did she ride the broom home in the end? are the brooms in this movie self-aware? I dont think they are self-aware, since after every time that Mary's magic ran out, the broom shut off, or like died temporarily. and it was shown that Mary did not use the last flower to power the broom, since she threw it away as they flew home. so how did she manage to fly home without magic?
those are all the notes I had about this movie, overall it was AMAZING. plot was awesome, the friendship development was awesome as well. I thought it was cute how the cat had a bond for each other throughout the movie. if not for them, Mary would not have been able to save peter. in a way they are the heroes in this movie. i wish there was more of the gardener in the movie, they barely showed him throughout the movie, yet he made such a great impact. he deserved a back-story if you ask me.
