The Craft 1996, R)
This is a decent movie about a group of high school girls at a private school who form a bond and learn to become witches. Of course some of them abuse their new found power. This is a solid story of the supernatural. The film has a great young cast with Robin Tunney, Fairuza Balk and Neve Campbell as some of the witches. The F/X was decent. Has a entertaining story. It was a solid watch. Worth a one time watch. |

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring 2001, PG-13)
Lord of the Rings is the best fantasy movie ever made. Very close to the books. The Ring Wraiths are just how I pictured them. Also the casting of Ian McKellen as Gandalf was awesome. He looked and sounded the part of Gandalf when ever I read the books. In fact the entire cast did great in their roles. You can tell that director Peter Jackson was a fan of the books with the care he took to make these films. One of my all time favorite films. |

The Covenant 2006, PG-13)
This was a okay movie. Almost a male version of the movie the Craft. About a group of families in Massachusetts that have magical abilities that form a covenant. But one of the families was banished years ago. Now someone is back from that family for revenge. The story is okay. The cast was okay. The ending of this movie was kind of weak. Some of the F/X and action is decent enough in this. This story would have been better as a long television series. |

Return to Oz 1985, PG)
This is considered a sequel to the original Wizard of Oz movie. Of course made in the 80's the effects are that much better. But this movie takes a much darker turn then the original musical. Dorothy is sent back to Oz and finds the magical land in trouble from a witch and a Nome King. The film gives us the Lion, Scarecrow and Tin Man again. But they play a much smaller role in this movie. We get Tik-Tok and Jack Pumpkinhead as the main characters to help Dorothy. With a much darker undertone some younger kids may not enjoy this. Though adults may enjoy that much more. A solid movie in itself that makes its own mark on the land of Oz world. Worth a one time watch. |

Labyrinth 1986, PG)
One of my favorite films as a child. Great story and animation with the puppets. Jim Henson brings puppets to a new level with this film. Sort of a Wizard of Oz for the 80's. I was quite impressed with David Bowie in this. He plays a great villain in the film. A great supernatural tale for kids and adults. |

Shrek 2001, PG)
This is a great animation film. The best of all the Shrek movies. All the characters from Shrek, Donkey, Princess Fiona, Lord Farquad, Gingerbreadman, etc. are all great. I laugh everytime I watch this film. Great humour for kids and adults. Takes elements of tons of fairy tales and makes them new and fresh. A fun story with a great ending. One of the best animation films to watch. A great film for all. |

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs 1937, G)
A classic in Disney movies. One of my childhood favorites. The film has excellent animation for the time it was made. Taking a classic story of Snow White and making into a animated film was well done. This film helped set the stage of how other Disney films would be made. Some good musical numbers in the film that always get stuck in your head. A must see for those who enjoy Disney animated films. Great for the family. |

Sleeping Beauty 1959, G)
This is a classic from Disney. Sleeping Beauty was great for it's time and still holds up today as a animated film. The classic story of a cursed princess who can only be awoken from her deep sleep from her true love. Of course then witch will try anything to stop the prince from awaking the princess. I love the scene when the prince must fight the witch in the form of a black dragon. A great film for kids and the family to enjoy. |

The Little Mermaid 1989, G)
This is a classic Disney film. Great for the family to watch. This is one of the better animated films to come from the Disney archive. With a simple story about a mermaid who falls in love with a human, The animation is quite good and the film is full a catchy musical numbers. I liked this as a kid and still enjoy today. Worth checking out if you enjoy Disney animated films. |

Cinderella 1950, G)
A classic Disney film. Great for a family film. The animation was good for its time. The story is a classic and well adapted into this film. Plus some good musical numbers. Though kids may enjoy this more I still like it since I enjoyed it back in the day. Worth a watch for Disney animation movie fans. |

Enchanted 2007, PG)
This is a cute film. Takes the basic animated fairy tale and throws it into modern life. The film is just plain fun and not to be taken serious. Has some funny moments. James Marsden was great in his role as the prince. This film is geared to more of a female audience. But overall a decent romantic comedy. |

Shrek the Third 2007, PG)
This is a good third instalment in the Shrek series. We get all of the regular cast back. Plus a Justin Timberlake doing the voice of Arthur. The films animation is still great and the films cast of characters are well done and funny. The film still has loads of humour for adults and kids. I still prefer the original film as the best of the Shrek series. But this film is still a fun watch. A good family movie. If you liked the other films then you should enjoy this as well. |

Snow White: A Tale of Terror (Snow White in the Black Forest) 1997, R)
This was a interesting take on the Snow White story. I was so use to the Disney version that this film actually surprised me. It's Snow White in sort of a horror thriller. Sigourney Weaver is great as stepmother who hates Snow White. The story gives itself more of a realistic portray. The story is also very dark. You have more focus on the stepmother at times then you do Snow White. Overall I found this to be a decent movie. Great cast and neat take on the Snow White story. Worth a watch |

The Witches of Eastwick 1987, R)
This is a movie that has a great cast with a okay story. About three women who have their wishes granted when a new man comes to town. Of course there is always a catch and price for the request since this man is actually the Devil. The movie has a great cast with Jack Nicholson, Michelle Pfeiffer, Cher and Susan Sarandon. The story was okay. It didn't wow me as I thought it would. Plus the F/X in the end was kind of cheesy. But if your a fan of any of the main actors in it then give it a watch. |

The Witches 1990, PG)
This is a good film about a group of witches at a hotel who scheme to turn all of the children into mice. A fun film but may be just a little scary for some kids. Angelica Huston is great as the head witch. The F/X is decent in it and decent acting and story all around. Good film for the kids and the family to watch. |

Shrek Forever After (Shrek 4) 2010, PG)
A great fourth installment in the Shrek movie series. This story is about Shrek making a deal with Rumpelstiltskin to get one day being a regular ogre. But of course the deal is not what it seems and Sherk is thrown in the past with everything changed. This was a fun film. Some very funny scenes through out the film. Many jokes and gags put in for adults and kids to enjoy. Plus the movie has a great story. Great to see all the classic characters from the Shrek series in this. Plus nice to have a villain like Rumpelstiltskin instead of another Prince Charming again for the film. If you enjoyed the other Shrek movies then you should enjoy this as well. Well worth a watch. |
