A drama for young children, the plot is simple and straightforward, and the characters are facialized. The whole film tells a simple and rough story. The witch is set as an ugly non-human, because she hates the smell of children, she wants to turn all the children into mice, and finally the children who become mice will kill them. Witches are inexplicably evil, villain labels plastered on their foreheads, the archetype of a bad and stupid cartoon villain. The child who turned into a mouse is witty and brave, and together with his friends, he will perform a cat-and-mouse chase and escape and save the danger. Similar settings are not uncommon in many children's cartoons, such as 101 Dalmatians, Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf... But the main characters of this film are too heavily masked, and the overall plot trend lacks behavioral logic and lacks empathy. Young children may clap their hands and applaud, but adults read it and chew it out. Anne Hathaway's performance was brilliant, and she showed the witch's viciousness and pretense very clearly. I watched a short video feed of a certain sound and was attracted by Anne Hathaway's disfiguring performance, so I downloaded the resource to watch it. As it turns out, that's the only point of the film.
