I am someone who grew up with the OG monster high web episodes and movies. I wasn't expecting much from this but it blew me away, all the talent involved was amazing and you could tell the actors had an amazing time making this film. I know this movie wasn't made for me as an adult in her 20s, it's made for children who I can just tell are going to love it!
Although a lot of the darker vibes of the original movies and episodes aren't always there it still has the same powerful message that monster high is all about!
The music was fun and catchy, the fashion wasn't as outrageous as I hoped but the style was on point and stylish (I recognized a few of the clothing items too, so it would be fun to recreate these looks), but I have to say again how amazing all the talent involved was.
The only thing as an Australian that made me sad was not making Lagoona Blue Australian, I loved her old design and the fact that there was a doll that was an Australian monster. I guess that's something the movie did lack overall was the amazing accents and cultural heritage that could have been more prevalent.
Overall it was a great movie, and I would absolutely watch it again! It's hard to create something from a material that has a big fan base, but I think this movie will create a whole new wave of monster high fans who will know that being different is the most special thing of all!
