CriticsCritics: 86

While staying at an English hotel with his grandmother, a young boy spies on a gathering of witches and discovers their plan to transform children into mice. After becoming one of their victims, he must work with his grandmother and a hotel manager to stop them.

My take

You’ll like this if you enjoy dark, playful family fantasy such as Monster House or The House with a Clock in Its Walls; Not for you if creepy imagery or older effects are dealbreakers.
