Monster High: 13 Wishes (Blu-ray + DVD + Digital Copy + UltraViolet)



Another excellent Monster High feature.
Monster High: 13 Wishes is yet another step up in quality for the Monster High film series. I was impressed at how much better the editing and story telling was handled. While Friday Night Frights, Why Do Ghouls Fall In Love and Ghouls Rule are all good movies, they are more of an extended Saturday morning cartoon affair. 13 Wishes improves in all ways, without losing the core of what makes Monster High so enjoyable.

Nearly all the guys and ghouls make an appearance in the movie, even if it's just a short cameo. There are also a nice variety of outfits that the ghouls wear throughout the film. The new characters Twyla, Gigi and Wisp are all interesting and likable. The story teaches the importance of appreciating what you have, who you are and the benefits of selflessness. The lessons are taught in an entertaining manner and don't come off like a cheesy Saturday morning special.

I am a twenty seven year old male fan of Monster High and I would gladly recommend...

Freaky and Fabulous!
I'm going to be completely honest here, I bought this movie for myself and I'm glad I did. My little cousin adored this movie and so did I. The thing I respect about these movies is that even though they're aimed for a little girl demographic, they still attempt to be likable for an older audience; That way it isn't painful for older family members to sit through. No matter what's going on in Monster High, there's ALWAYS something interesting to see; all of the designs are extremely creative and there's an abundance of Monster puns(Seriously, student DISEMBODIED president, why didn't I think of that?) The characters are extremely cute and likable and all the diverse monsters embrace they're quirks and it teaches kids to embrace what makes them unique. The major downside of this movie and all monster high movies is that it could be really clichéd; this wouldn't bother me too much but it's especially irksome because I think things like the the one-dimensional bully characters...

13 Wishes Awesome
I purchased this DVD today for my daughter. She and I are Monster High fans. We watched the DVD as a family including the hubby. It is really good and we stopped the DVD and discussed how this DVD is related to "real life issues". For example, we all have 2 inner voices: good & evil. Choosing which voice to listen to will determine your journey. Plus, other details, without ruining the movie for those who have not seen it. This dvd has a message for ALL viewers. Enjoy! Highly recommended & good price (to be honest, I purchased my copy from Target & got 5% off).
