Stardust 2007, PG-13)
New favourite movie of all time!!! This magical movie had me leave the theatre on a movie buzz and a satisfied sigh. This is the reason we go to the movies to be wrapped up into the enchantment and wonder. |

Finding Neverland 2004, PG)
This beautiful movie has real heart. It takes you on an adventure into the mind of The creator of Peter Pan. J.M. Barrie created fantasy worlds drawing on his surroundings for inspiration. This movie reminds you anything is possible and imagination is not something you have to lose as you grow up! |

The Adventures of Milo and Otis (Koneko Monogatari) (A Kitten's Story) 1986, G)
brilliant movie so funny. Made me have serious thoughts as to what the pets really think. Perhaps its not eat, sleep, eat, sleep, why isn't she faster at feeding me! |
|
| 4 |
The Princess Bride 1987, PG)
Still 1 of my all time favs. Should be in every girls collection. "Then he swooped her up just like in the book ..." |
|
| 5 |
Moulin Rouge! 2001, PG-13)
TRUTH, BEAUTY, FREEDOM and of course LOVE. What more could you want in a movie? How about an extremely talented bunch of actors, fabulous music and a brilliant plot. This movie has it all!! |

The Phantom of the Opera 2005, PG-13)
Beautifully done although they spoke my favourite part in the movie rather than singing it. "I gave you my love blindly." Its petty to gripe about it but I love when the 3 of them are singing together. |

|
| 9 |
Serenity 2005, PG-13)
action packed and really funny. I was just peeved about one thing at the end which is why it didn't get full stars. Don't want to give it away so I won't say more. |

A terrific ending to a mind blowing trilogy. If you love fantasy then you must see this. |
