Mary is an ordinary young girl stuck in the country with her Great-Aunt Charlotte and seemingly no adventures or friends in sight.

I will try to make this as short as I can:
To give context, I've watched all of studio Ghibli's movies (because this is what people are comparing this movie to) and enough hours of anime / animated movies and series to have several PhDs... That's probably not a good thing. Moving on...
The art is beautiful and the animations are amazing, sometimes reminding me of the old Disney style of animation.
The story and music are kind of where this movie falls short. The story is pretty predictable and the music is kind of generic but I still loved watching this.
This movie definitely doesn't deserve a grade under 7. If you loved the stuff by studio Ghibli, then you'll love this. It's as simple as that so go watch it.
