Editorial Review: Amazon.com: 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 Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Definitely have to watchThis is an awesome series for anyone who loves fairtales. I watched this for the first time when it origninally premiered on ABC, and couldn't forget about it. Rating:  - Good show even for the kids.I really enjoyed this mini-series. It had a good amount of humor, a lot of imagination and creativity. My kids really loved this movie because the story line also correlates with Snow White, Cinderella, Rapunzel, and most fairy tales that we as children generally grew up hearing. I only gave it four stars because I did feel that it was a little hoaky at the beginning. But once you start to watch it, you really do get sucked in. My family and I found this show to be a great source of entertainment, ...

Really wonderful and creative story with lots of subplots, humor and romance. Some scary parts for the 9 yr old, but it made the whole show that much more fun to watch. Highly recommend for multi night viewing of maybe an all day Saturday marathon or snow day marathon. The wolf is so much fun and the "Peeps" are quite fun as well. Rating: - Not the best fantasy epic ever portrayed......but it certainly kept me riveted to my seat for 7 hours straight. The 10th Kingdom is something I remember seeing in the video store over and over again when it first came out, but it was never enough to tempt me to watch it. Honestly, I believed it would be a little sub-par on every level, and was biased because it was made-for-TV. Even now, after finally deciding to watch it, I was looking at the case and having second thoughts. Finally, last night, I decided to watch one episode, and if it was no ...

It is a fantasy/ adventure w/ a comedic touch. I don't want to give away the plot but I must say it will keep you intrigued throughout. It is also very visual and I know we here liked it better than The Lion , The Witch and the Wardrobe(Chronicles of Narnia) and Prince ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
