Summary: A must see
Comment: I have seen this movie (all 7+ hours) probably 8 times! The Tenth Kingdom is full of imagination and fun, and keeps you wanting more after its over. I can't wait to find out if there will be a sequel, the characters are so intriguing that I find myself dying to know what happens to Virginia, Wolfe, and Tony! If you like feel good adventures and fantasy, I highly recommend The Tenth Kingdom.

Summary: Beautifully and Purposefully Cheesy!
Comment: I think a lot of people may miss the fact that the corniest parts of the movie seem intentional and add to the fun. This movie isn't meant to be taken seriously! It's meant to be fun!
Great dvd to watch when you just want to relax, be entertained and not think about plot too much.
There are parts adults will like more and kids will like more.
The characters work well together and it's an adventure, love story, and fairy tale with some moral messages along the way. Hard to beat that!
Don't think it's appropriate for really young viewers, but think young teens, maybe even pre-teens, and their parents would both like. There are some sexual innuendos that parents should be aware of, and the scary scenes would probably be disturbing for kids under 8.

Summary: Excellent movie
Comment: this is a good movie. for a family its 4 hours long maybee more. but this movie is fun. cuddle up under the blankets when u watch this movie it a fun movie made by Hallmark. I got it on VHS but the movie Quality is terrible because the put the whole movie on VHS & VHS 4 hour long dosent get good picture. buying it on dvd would improve the picture

Summary: Fairytale land takes a hit
Comment: This is a long children's fantasy movie with at time very uneven acting.
I think the witch mother-in-law may be the best acxtted part.
I really enjoyed the movie, but it seemed caught between a cartoon
and a Disney fairytale reenactment? The trolls are like none I've seen or heard of before. It has an alternate universe type plot with a mirror gateway
like the classic Alice in Through the Looking Glass.
I suppose the wolf can have his tail surgically removed in New York, ha, ha...

Summary: Your childhood fairy tales all growed up.
Comment: 10th Kingdom was a mini series originally aired on NBC in 2000. Although the ratings at the time were not what everyone hoped they would be, the series did, and still does, have a loyal following - and with good reason.
A stellar cast, attention to detail, witty, inteligent writing, beautiful locations and good old fashioned fantasy make this 'movie' great. I've often described it to my friends as a "believeable fairy tale." The characters from the fantasy realm are truly believable and very seldom campy. The main characters from 'the real world' are believable in their interaction with the fantasy world because they accept they're there, but still question why you have to "guess my name before you can have my magic axe" and other such wonderful scenes.
If you enjoy fantasy or fairy tale type movies (I'll say it's somewhat akin to Stardust although 10 Kingdom is more reality based) that are family friendly but made to cater to grown-ups, you should definitely watch 10th Kingdom. And if you're looking at this review, you're likely considering purchasing it, in which case you're probably already in love with it.
The price for this 3-disc set was incredibly reasonable, I paid for expedited shipping and it arrived on time in perfect condition.
