My Little Pony The Movie

amomentwithfranca · 21 October 2017 · 123 Comments

We were invited to a special preview screening of My Little Pony The Movie in anticipation of its national release on Friday 20th October! During the event, we were very lucky and we actually won a My Little Pony My Magical Princess Twilight Sparkle, so we ran a giveaway for that as we already had one.

My Little Pony The Movie

 

It was an early afternoon Sunday screening held at the Ham Yard Hotel in Central London. It’s near Piccadilly Circus so we used public transport to get there and then it was just a 5 minute wall.

This is a fabulous 5-star hotel! I had never been there so I was very excited to attend this event!

The hotel was gorgeous, I really loved the decoration! I wanted to take more photos but because we had to go to the screening, I had to contain myself, LOL!

We were taken to the hotel’s Dive Bar which had been transformed with the My Little Pony theme. It was for sure a dream place for little ones. My girls’ eyes lit up when they walked in.

We walked around the room and took some photos of the girls! They were so happy! They were given a goodie bag each as well as a My Little Pony balloon so they were over the moon!

We were then invited to take our seats in the theatre room to watch the movie. This room is beautiful and really nice decorated! We went up to the second floor to watch the film from the gallery level which was perfect. Each seat had a great view of the screen. Before the movie started, they drew winning raffle tickets which is when I won the My Little Pony My Magical Princess Twilight Sparkle. As you may know from my previous post, we have already received one of these to review as part of our ambassador role with Hasbro Toy Tribe. We were delighted to discover we won another and immediately thought it would be great to offer one of my readers the chance to win it!

Film Synopsis

Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rarity embark on an epic journey to save Ponyville from a dark force.

After a dark force conquers Canterlot, the Mane 6 embark on an unforgettable journey beyond Equestria where they meet new friends and exciting challenges on a quest to use the magic of friendship to save their homeland.

Director: Jayson Thiessen
Writers: Meghan McCarthy (story by), Joe Ballarini (story by)
Stars: Emily Blunt, Kristin Chenoweth, Liev Schreiber

Our Thoughts

Bella & Sienna with their MLP goodie bags

The girls really enjoyed the movie, although little Sienna fall asleep because she was so tired from the previous excitement, bless her! But Bella watched the whole thing and really enjoyed it! I particularly loved Emily Blunt’s role. She did a fantastic job and one of the main songs she sang was stunning! I was very impressed. If you have any MLP fans at home and especially with half-term upon us, you should definitely think about taking them to watch this movie! They will love it!

Have you seen the movie or are you looking forward to watching it? Are your kids fans of My Little Pony? Could this cute toy be on your little one’s Christmas list?

*Disclaimer: We were invited to a special screening of My Little Pony The Movie for the purpose of this blog post. 

Thanks for stopping by,

Love you all ❤️

    We have not seen the movie yet, unfortunately we will have to wait a while for it to come to Saturday morning Kids cinema (it is a bit cheaper to watch films as they are not as new). My little girl is a big MLP fan so she really wants to see the film.
