Real life Harry Potter. We get to see how Professor Sprout sacrificed the mandrakes to save the petrified ones in HP and the Chamber of Secrets. But jokes aside, it's a pretty decent flick.
Most of it kept me interested but the 3rd act was hard to watch.
Awesome!!!! I was so pleasantly surprised!
Wow, absolutely fantastic! I love folk magic and this one checked all the boxes for me. It's suspenseful, thrilling and emotional. I'd love to see another one where they expand on Mary's past or if Luke ends up using the mandrake or maybe we see if Luke's mom starts her journey into folk magic and how she learns about the mandrake and everything Mary knew.
Great flick
