Strange Magic is a madcap fairy tale musical inspired by 'A Midsummer Night';s Dream.' The tale of a colorful cast of Goblins, elves, fairies and imps, and their misadventures sparked by the battle over a powerful potion.
A perfectly serviceable animated movie that doesn't reinvent the wheel, but manages to entertain thanks to its amazing CGI, fun renditions of classic -and modern- pop songs, and good voice acting. [Full review in Spanish]
It doesn't make a lick of sense, and if kids are the target audience, they won't get much out of the only-sort-of-appropriate playlist, which tries to build a jukebox musical out of ELO, Bob Marley, Elvis, the Four Tops, Queen and such.

If you're a hardcore animation person with not-very-demanding children you might take a chance.
I know we're talking about fairy tales here. But why does the king, who resembles a cockroach and talks like a Scot, have a mother who seems to be a slug and talks like a Jewish-mother joke?

While there are fun moments, the whole is an odd mix of grotesquerie and cutesiness.

This movie is loathsome, that's what it is. I don't know why it exists. Don't see it.
