As I started the movie (just to go to sleep to) I found myself getting entranced in its art and music. Nevertheless, it felt surface level and basic. But then.. As I got closer to the end of the story (that happy ending where everything is solved and perfect again) they twisted the story. I liked that. We start to see the characters change and develop and that life isn’t perfect.. it’s broken. The movie is portrayed with a message about divorce and the effect on children as a result. It had meaning, and even seeing the main character break down and get swallowed into darkness.. then to bear witness to her parents loving her regardless and accepting change was such a beautiful message. As a writer, it even inspired me. This is the kind of film I’d love to write someday. ❤ And this masterpiece was my absolute favorite song in the movie- in the same way that “A Wish Worth Making - Julia Michaels” sold me. 🎉 SOLID 8.5 RATING 👏🏽

This movie looks good. A lot of parents are bashing it because of “inappropriate messages.” Divorce is too adult for children they believe.

Modern day parents suck

[@thebelovedsbride9350]

I actually felt this story was a breath of fresh air, addressing a subject most people tippy-toe around. These stories NEED to be out there to help kids who ARE going through divorce know that there’s hope at the end and that things can still be good.

[@JasminKrieger-z9x]

WE dont Like divorces so i didnt Liked the end but the music and Design was nice Well but yeah If IT can Help people with divorce cope thats fine but divorce isnt good for Kids WHO of course want their parents stay to gether

[@DoriquePetronilla]

This is why as an introvert I love movie, series, bl name it without the knowledge most of the teach out to the world I wouldn't know what I know, so the whole divorce is adult for children shit is wrong let them learn from a show like this that reasonates with them you'd be surprised what they get they talk like that cause they don't wanna address it to the kids and it's wrong, it's an excuse and they know it

[@rulitoyjavier4372]

Los niños deben saber estos temas, la muerte, el divorcio, niños que viven con sus tíos porque no tienen padres, etc. Puede que sus padres no estén divorciados, pero les va a servir en caso de que tengan un amigo con los padres divorciados para poder apoyarlo.

The Way It Was Before Lauren Spencer-Smith Shattered walls Empty hallways Is that all we left behind? I recall how we used to be I see each moment in my mind Endless talks Celebrations Aimless walks with our hands entwined Most of all, there was love to spare And magic everywhere We breathed it in like air But no one's there now I wish I knew the way back to the way it was before With you there in your old familiar place Reliving every day back when my heart learned how to soar Every smile, each embrace If I could find a way back to the way it was before And we could be together there right now I'd run without delay back to the way it was before Run like mad to what we had If only I knew how (Hey) With you here, I was fearless Year by year, I grew sure and strong Now it's clear what I really need Is what you gave me all along The lessons that you taught me and all the plans we laid The winters by the fire and the summers in the shade The stars we used to wish on and the wishes that we made Things like that must live on Can we go to where they've gone? There's got to be a way back to the way it was before To stand with you again on solid ground We'll spend one perfect day back in the way it was before Just one day, then one more, maybe three Why keep score? Let's just stay The way it was before

I usually listen to Dreamtheater and Pantera but that song hit hard! Simple but Interesting chord progression and sad AF lyrics. Perfect!

[@khchong8541]

I have played the song to the form one student this morning. They like it very much. I think at their age they have already learned that unsatisfactory is part of their lives.

[@morganbailey3231]

When I hear this song, I hear colours of the wind from Pocahontas. It’s funny because Menken also composed that song when the movie was released in 95. Basically Alan just added certain parts of songs that he wrote to make this song. Cleaver

[@matthewleeds9242]

Same chord progression on the word “place”, so harmonically it’s nearly the same.

[@nduduzoprins3742]

Wow this song is good 😮😊

[@nickiatemygreatgrandmother]

never seen this but cool

[@levinemgl1]

I will always be proud to be one of Rachel Zegler's Zeglians and support her in everything she does. After all, Rachel is one of the most talented actresses and singers ever, and she is an amazing role model who deserves all the happiness & success possible.

[@danielgudinojuarez6729]

This is just sad, Spellbound is a clear indication that just because you wanna be a Disney movie, doesn't mean it's a good thing. This is just mediocre and pathetic

[@marlena.]

Where do they claim to be anything like Disney? Even Disney is argued to not be like Disney anymore nowadays. Can't this just be what it is, an animated movie...
