Summer Magic (1963)

The Animation Commendation2 Comments

I’ve already reviewed five of the six films that Hayley Mills made for Disney, so it was inevitable that I would eventually complete the set.

I’M ONLY DOING THE THEATRICAL FILMS, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Directed by James Neilson, Summer Magic is a Sherman Brothers musical set in early 20th Century Maine. I hadn’t seen it before, but heard good things from many of my Disney friends. Did I agree with them? Read on for my review of Summer Magic.

Although apparently not intended as a sequel to Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, Honey, I Blew Up the Kid was released in 1992. For those unfamiliar with the term, to “blow up” something means to enlarge it such as in to “blow up a picture”. We’re not talking about anything dynamite-related here. You’ll get the point as we traverse the film. Enjoy my review of Honey, I Blew Up the Kid!

Disney’s Enchanted proved to be a major hit with audiences and Disney fans alike! It managed to both pay homage to and make lighthearted fun of the fairy tale genre and Disney itself, whilst not being disrespectful or dismissive either. As you can imagine, a sequel was announced for a while, finally being released to Disney+ in 2022. Is Disenchanted as good as Enchanted? Read on to find out!
