believe it or not: it's better than the book!

The Witches was originally a book written by Roald Dahl and published somewhere in the 1980s. I read the book and enjoyed it. But the movie...

It's better than the book!!! So what exactly is it about? Well, a boy called Luke, learns that there are witches on the planet. Witches who hate little children. Witches who want them destroyed. His grandmother tells him that the Witches have one meeting every year, to think up of plans how to rid children off the face of the Earth! One day, Luke and his grandmother go to a hotel. The plan was simple. They were supposed to have a good time and relax. Instead, Luke accidentally stumbles into a meeting room where the friendly ladies from the RSPCC (royal society to prevention of cruelty to children) are supposed to have their meeting. but, Luke soon finds out, they're not the RSPCC... they're the witches! And so Luke overhears their horrible plan (to rid children from the planet, of course).

When, the meeting is over and Luke is about to exit, one witch finds him, and turns him into a mouse! Luke knows what he has to do. He has to stop the witches' plan from happening. That however proves to be difficult as mouse have 2 deadly enemies. Cats and humans. Will Luke stop the witches? Sounds interesting, huh? Well, once you finish watching this movie, you'll want to watch it again and again! You'll love it! Rating; 6/10
