Rating: 2/5 -- If Ghibli wanted to make their own mockbuster, then they pulled it off. Full Review
Austin Chronicle

Rating: 4.2/10 -- Earwig and the Witch is, by normal standards, a misfire-and by Ghibli's standards it's much worse. Full Review

A strong-willed young heroine, a witch, a talking cat, cute magical minions: EARWIG AND THE WITCH has many of the familiar qualities of a Studio Ghibli film.
New York Times
Feb 3, 2021
From its whisper of a plot to its thinly sketched characters and joltingly ugly animation, it feels like a cheap knockoff of Studio Ghibli, even if it is the real thing. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- It sacrifices Studio Ghibli's hand-drawn style but it's the absence of the studio's usual emotional beats that's the bigger problem. Full Review

Even if far from being top-tier Ghibli, it's not without its fantastical pleasures. Full Review

[With] occasional lively visual touches, and a playfully out-of-character '70s prog rock score by Satoshi Takebe.

Product Description:

Directed by Gorô Miyazaki, this full-length animated feature from Studio Ghibli revolves around 10-year old Earwig, a precocious child who grew up in a unique orphanage where children can practically do things that are always forbidden of them. She was abandoned by her witch mother, but another witch, Bella Yaga, later adopts her. When she is taken to Bella's home, she finds out that she will serve as an assistant. Hardheaded Earwig agrees to abide by house rules if Bella teaches her how to do magic. Adapted from the novel by Diana Wynne Jones.
