Spellbound
48Watch it awake.
A child trying to heal a marriage. The burden is too much of the plot, and the love is real.
The review
Spellbound puts a daughter in charge of repairing her parents, and then it is kind enough to suggest the parents have to do the actual repairing. Children of a strained house will feel the first part too accurately. Watch it only with them, and say the sentence the magic obscures: it is not the child's job to turn the monsters back into a mother and a father.

The glance
Industry and Piety and Republic are the thin ones.
Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
Over the Moon
60 instead of 48
Over the Moon is still a family film, and it scores 60 instead of 48. What you gain is industry: She builds the rocket.
The eight
- 4Industry
She takes on a quest that should have been her parents' work.
- 6Household
The curse is a marriage in trouble. The film wants the marriage restored, which is the right want.
- 3Piety
Magic stands in for the conversation they would not have.
- 6Courage
She goes anyway, for them.
- 4Republic
A kingdom waiting on one girl's errand.
- 5Temperance
A musical quest, lighter than the trouble it is about.
- 5Truth
It tells the truth that a child feels the weather of a marriage. It is softer about how little she can fix.
- 5Stewardship
What she wants to hand back is her parents, to each other.
