Summary: Don't miss this one!
Review: This is my favorite movie of all time now. My husband and kids (age 6 and 8) have watched this many times and we never tire of it. It's just a great film, it has something for all ages, which is nice because in our family that can be difficult to find. The guys want action and adventure, the girls want romance and fluff. This one has both and it's so funny. All the actors/actresses were wonderful in it. As mentioned before the Peep farm part is hysterical, we still sing Virginia's song! Too funny! And I have to admit, my family has probably grown tired of hearing me gripe 'suck an elf' for the past two plus years now when something goes awry. :) I would have to encourage anyone to beg borrow or buy this one. It's a keeper!

Summary: The 10th Kingdom
Review: Though a very long movie (7 hours), it's worth every minute of it to watch this movie. One of the most fun parts of it is that it is set mostly in a fairy tale kingdom - or really, THE fairy tale kingdom; so you meet Snow White, Cinderella, and many other well-known fairy tale characters. It has trolls, dwarves, magic mirrors, and werewolfs. A great movie.

Summary: A good wolf romance tale
Review: It seems everyone has pretty much said a lot about this movie, so I'll just add points I think are key to the movie.This movie will appeal to those who read lots of fairy tales when young. It was fun to find the fairy tale stories in this movie. Knowing the original fairy tales made the spoofs of them comical. If you've never read fairy tales or don't enjoy them, you likely will think this movie is very stupid, pointless, and not worth the time. If you don't like the Wolf right away, don't bother watching the rest of the movie. If you don't like his romance with Virginia, you won't like anything else about the movie, since it will be 7.5 hours trolls and a manic murderer chasing Virginia and the dog (a prince transformed by a spell). Additional plots develop near the end of the movie to help explain the evil queen's true self (Virginia's mother), leaving nearly the whole movie for you to wonder where she came from. If you have kids that like to watch a certain movie over and over and over and over and... Well, try this one. For the price, it's cheap entertainment. At least you won't have to watch a 70-minute movie over and over (ever watched the Pokemon movie over and over days on end? UGH!), you can break up the monotony by stretching it out to almost 7.5 hours. CAUTION: This movie is NOT recommended for children under about 6-8. Almost every scene involving the trolls contains quite a bit of serious violence that is probably rated R. The scary trolls may even give young viewers nightmares, since their only goal during the whole movie is to find the dog and later Virginia and kill everything that gets in their way. Throughout the movie the Huntsman coldly pursues Virginia, the dog, and any one getting in his way. He's like a methodical, calculating serial killer with all the charm of a serial killer. Not nice. Eventually after chasing Virginia and the dog for hours and finding no success, the Huntsman convinces the trolls to join him. Great, 3 bumbling dangerous trolls and a serial killer teamed up to serve the evil queen for even more violence. Toward the end of the movie, the theme of Virginia's mother (the evil queen) trying to kill her when she was 7 by drowning her in a bathtub, played over and over and over, ought to bring shocking chills that is more graphic than Trolls committing their own violent acts. The queen attempts to justify the attempted murder by telling Virginia that she was nothing more than a mistake when conceived. I'm sure every child likes to hear that. (Everyone knows trolls are scary and dangerous, but to graphically demonstrate a mother attempting to murder her own child might be a bit much for little ones.) The Wolf really DOES steal the show. I found myself only mildly amused by the overall plot of the movie and kept watching. However, I found the plot of romance between Virginia and the Wolf to be the theme worthy of waiting to see what happens next. This could have been a story in itself and been a wonderful movie. What lady could resist a cuddly cute guy that's a little quirky, yet strong enough to get in touch with his weaker side (in order to tone down his violent wolf nature through self-help books)to gain Virginia's attention. His persistence eventually pays off with a wild romp in the woods, wolf style. You know that part of the story ends well, since Wolfie insists that wolves mate forever and he's found his love. Virginia's father never actually acknowledges his acceptance of Wolfie pursuing his daughter (doesn't every father like to see his precious daughter pursued by a wolf right before his very eyes?). He seems to suspect the desire of Wolf's pursuits, and later, eventually after seeing how well Wolfie takes care of Virginia (who's often bratty and snotty to her father because she's stuck in a fairy tale), convinces Virginia that maybe she likes Wolfie more than she wants to admit. Virginia thinks about it, and seems to agree, from then on she surrenders herself to Wolf. Wolf leaves just enough wondering to keep you guessing until the end if he is the good guy or the bad guy, since he's really working for the evil queen and has an agenda to capture the dog and Virginia and bring them back to her. I rated this a little bit less than perfect because of the unnecessary violence in the plot. The troll scenes are just plain annoying. Also, each world Virginia and her father pass through is essentially to introduce as many fairy tales as possible and none of the fairy worlds is more than a passing spoof. (If you desire a well-developed fairy story, LOTR series is better at placing the roles in the plot.) Hope you find my additional comments useful.

Summary: The Tenth Kingdom
Review: I saw this on TV and had to get the movie; mine came on three VHS tapes, so I don't have the extras for the DVD version. The movie is about a girl named Virginia who lives with her father in New York city. Her father's a janitor, and she's a waitress, and she has a pretty pessimistic view on life. Then one day, some trolls and a wolf-man from the nine kingdoms of fantasy come through a magic mirror into the modern world looking for a prince who'd been turned into a Golden Retriever. Virginia and her father get caught up with the trolls, the wolf man, and the prince, and the wolf-man falls in love with Virginia, even though he's pledged allegiance to the evil queen and Virginia is for the good side. This is an epic movie with great music and actually a really good plot for a movie on TV. I would definitely recommend getting this movie if you can sit through a, like, five hour long movie in one stretch.

Summary: Complex Epic Fantasy
Review: Until the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy this movie was the most complex fantasy ever attempted. In some ways the story does ramble, but the intricate elements are woven together so coherently that they smoothly fit into the quest undertaken by the principal characters. Virginia and Tony Lewis (Kimberly Williams and John Larroquette) live in a New York apartment. One day a dog enters Virginia's life. However, the dog is not just any ordinary dog, but Prince Wendell (Daniel Lapaine) changed into a dog by an evil Queen (Dianne Wiest). Soon trolls enter the story along with magic, and the story begins. Virginia and Tony travel through a magic mirror into the land of the nine kingdoms (with New York being the 10th kingdom. It takes Virginia and Tony little time to realize that the world they have entered has very different rules from their own. Their goal is to find a mirror that will allow them to travel back to their own world, and the quest for the mirror forms the heart of the story. Along the way both Virginia and Tony, but most especially Virginia, are on a voyage of discovery about themselves. Through a series of vignettes they learn the history of the nine kingdoms, and learn there are mysteries related to that history. One of the most startling revelations is that Virginia and Tony are somehow involved in the nine kingdoms, but it's not until we get well into the movie that we understand the nature of their involvement. The plot is generally coherent and I had little trouble keeping track of the parallel stories. I admit that there were a few things that confused me when I watched the story in its original television debut, but my confusion was cleared up by watching the DVD version without the commercials and all in one 7+ hour sitting. The acting talent in this movie is phenomenal. Rutger Hauer plays the Queen's woodsman, with his own poignant story. Warwick Davis is Acorn, a criminal with a tongue-in-cheek character. Ed O'Neil is perfect as Relish the Troll King. Scott Cohen as Wolf took a little getting used to, but once I realized how he fit into the story I enjoyed his antics and characterization. Camryn Manheim makes an interesting Snow White. Ann-Margret brings class to Queen Cinderella. This list is but a fraction of the cast possible by the epic nature of this movie. The story is an adult fairy tale. There is violence in the movie as well as a number of intense scenes that are likely inappropriate for children below the age of 7 or 8. However, for everyone else this movie is fun and complicated. If you enjoy fantasy, and you can be open-minded about how fantasy is approached, this movie could be perfect for you.

Summary: 10th Kingdom On DVD: Even Better Than The VHS
Review: This review comes to you from the author of the classic list-mania list: The Most Funkydoodle Books For Teen Girls. 10th Kingdom is about Virginia, a girl who is transported back in time to a fairy-tale world, along with her dad and a prince who has been turned into a dog. They have to restore peace to the kingdom by defeating the queen but face a pathway of obstacles and meet many interesting characters, including a half-wolf, half-man who is in love with Virginia! There are many exciting plot twists and I believe 10th Kingdom is enjoyable for everyone. On the DVD are special features that introduce you to the characters and kingdoms, as well as a making of 10th Kingdom tour. I love 10th Kingdom, and I hope you will too. Ciao!
