The 10th Kingdom description This epic 10-hour miniseries from the Emmy-winning writer of Gulliver's Travels was a ratings bust on television, but on video and DVD, where it can be enjoyed at one's leisure, it has a better chance to cast its magical spell. Kimberly Williams has never been more enchanting than as Virginia, a waitress who still lives with her janitor father (John Larroquette) and yearns for something exciting to happen to her. Her wish comes true when she and her father are transported from New York City into a dimension that, with apologies to Rod Serling, can only be called the Fairy Tale Zone; nine kingdoms populated by characters from fairy tales of yore. They team up with a dog who's really a prince--Wendell, grandson of Snow White--changed into canine form by the evil Queen (Dianne Wiest), who plots to usurp Wendell's throne. Father, daughter, and his royal dogness are relentlessly pursued through the nine kingdoms by the Troll King (Ed O'Neill) and his three bumbling and horrible children, and the conflicted Wolf (Scott Cohen), who is allied with the Queen but, with the aid of some Oprah-esque self-help books, tames his inner beast and falls in love with Virginia. The 10th Kingdom is a special effects extravaganza. There is indeed, as one character marvels, magic to behold here. But despite the Hallmark brand name and the presence of a grown-up Snow White (Camryn Manheim) and Cinderella (Ann-Margret), bewitched animals, magic mirrors, and trolls, this is not kid's stuff. It can get scary, surprisingly violent, and quite intense; you know, just like real fairy tales. --Donald Liebenson |

| ♥♥♥♥♥ | Excellent Movie!!! |
| I watched this movie when it first came out on television. We then purchased the VHS and watched it so much that the tape messed-up. I have been searching for the DVD and could not find it anywhere. [...] had it and I was elated.
This is an excellent movie to watch if you loved the fairy tales as a child. I rate this up there with The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter. I am a 35-year old woman and I never tire of watching a good fairy tale. While this is about fairy tales, some of the parts might not be good for children to watch (it may scare small children). This has all aspects that a good movie needs, i.e. adventure, romance, slight scares, mysteries, etc. I highly recommend this for teenagers and all adults! |
