Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

This is a type of show that you could say is rare now a days. It is quite family friendly and fun. But it definitely has a heart. You feel how the characters grow up and makes you miss your old friends too. I would've liked if it continued for another season but how they did they ending is quite outstanding. Everything just gets real. The acting is OK but the storytelling in terms of the writing is well done. Great show! They should make more shows like this. Family friendly and light hearted. A must watch!

A show that straddles reality and fantasy, it appealed to this adult, too. The fantasy comes in two packages: the first is that there is magic in this small town, mostly in misbehaving artifacts. The second fantasy is that it is a multicultural, poverty-free small town where everyone treats each other decently. It is not the real world, but it is the world I think we all wish we could inhabit.While there is magic, there is plenty of science too, and science always trumps magic in the show. I was especially delighted that it is the girls who are whizzes at math and science. The boys are pleasant, funny, and have their own talents. The parents are loving, but also flawed, and with agendas of their own.Emotional topics are brought to the fore a couple times, particularly issues of grief. But comedy reigns....comedy and a good heart.Nice work from the kid actors, and I'm keeping an eye on David Bloom, who played one of the recurring secondary roles. I saw real depth and range in him.I'll miss the kids of Normal Street. When Amazon gets it right, as they often do, they excel.

I'm only two episodes in, so this is not a review of the full series, but I like what I see so far. The best way I could think of to describe it so far is Desperate Housewives meets Diary of a Wimpy Kid. If you watch it, that will make perfect sense. The cast is great; these kids don't get on my nerves like the kids on the dumb Disney shows that my daughter likes to watch. The plot for the pilot episode was a little ridiculous and the episode felt overly long, but the second episode had much better pacing and a much more interesting story. I'm glad that I gave the show another chance beyond that first episode, and I'm looking forward to watching the rest of the series.

Okay, this maybe one of the most bizarre series I have seen its fairly amusing to watch (especially to children and I'd think adults too) as its light hearted and has a good morale behind it. Not to mention the acting is amazing unlike most new series I have seen recently and I hope it gets continued. Furthermore, it seems to be a unique series as the childlike viewpoint is rarely used apart from in two other films that I have seen so for that I rated it as 10/10. Also if you haven't seen it yet I recommend giving it a watch its not as bad as you first think as when I first saw it I thought it was just going to be childish to bother watching whereas I actually thoroughly enjoyed watching it; the unpredictable nature of it was hooking enough but the added humor was what made it brilliant. So please support this series so there can be more episode, thanks for reading. :)
