TinkerBell - Die Suche nach dem verlorenen Schatz

Our family enjoys these Tinkerbell movies. So nice to watch a movie without a villain and that explores emotions as related to friend relationships. Also nice that there isn't any really frightening images or creatures. It's annoying how so many animated features gear towards pleasing adults with innuendos that sometimes fly over children's heads. These Tinkerbell movies appeal to children and adults without being crude and having to make us laugh every couple of minutes. They are charming and visually stunning. I like how Tinkerbell sees the error of her ways and makes good with Terrance in the end. Good moral to the story and very entertaining! I hope they will continue to make these movies.

All fans of Tinker Bell and her first movie have no reason to worry; "Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure" is a full-worthy sequel to the first movie. Considering that there's only one year of absence between the movies, the filmmakers have done a good job to make this a complete movie and not only a product for cash-cowing, like it easily could have been.

Although I enjoyed last years Tinker Bell adventure, I definitively enjoyed this film more. The previews who were released before the movie came out seemed very promising and the final movie definitively lived up to the expectations. This "sequel" is more dynamic in many ways. It opens with the catchy and inspiring "If You Believe". The plot is more engaging, more suspenseful and it has a few more action sequences than it's predecessor, but this is after all a G-rated family film, so it never crosses the line.

The film focus more on the relationship between Tink and Terence this time, which serves the movie well. Tink herself is presented as a versatile character and the fact that she actually talks feels never distracting in neither of the movies.

Otherwise, this film has the cuteness-factor like the first flick had, which only makes the experience more enjoyable, but it's also a bit more edgier in terms of the adventurous plot. The animation is even better this time, the characters are still likable and the cute score of Joel McNeely fits the movie well. Besides, there are more humor in the screenplay.

So don't hesitate by seeing this movie when it comes to DVD. It is a cute and sweet movie experience and a wonderful movie threat for kids and every Tinker Bell fan.

A movie designed for young girls is not something I would normally watch but I read where the visuals on the Blu-Ray DVD of this film was astounding. So....I rented it the other day to see how it looked. Hey, for $2, it was worth a shot.

Well, the visuals exceeded all expectations. This is as pretty an animated film as I've ever seen, and I've seen most of them. Animated films have looking better and better in recent years and in high-def, many of them look downright spectacular. But, a little girl's movie about Tinker Bell? Could that look as impressive as those big-budget, big-hyped films like "Cars," "Up," "Ice Age," etc.?

In a one-word answer: yes.

The colors in here are as good as anything I've seen. Your jaw drops as you watch scene-after-scene. It's amazing.

Is there "bad news?" Yes, at least for old codgers like me who don't want to hear the lead character ("Tinker Bell") whining, bitching-and-moaning much of the time. Is this Tinker Bell I saw years ago? No, this is the modern version, I guess: a pouting 13-14-year-old-like girl who can really get on your nerves the second half of this film. She's okay in the beginning but once she's airborne and some troubles start, plug your ears because she's constantly complaining, snapping at well-intentioned friends and simply becoming a real pain-in-the-butt.

If I ever see this DVD again, I'll just mute the second half of the film and marvel 100 percent at all the incredible artwork in here.

I second what most of these reviews seem to say.

Surprisingly great movie. Watched it with my 4 year old daughter expecting another god-awful kids movie that unquestionably scars their subconscious in some way I haven't even thought of. Instead, found myself enjoying the hero quest - as much as if I were watching Visionquest with Fiorentino.

A real movie, stunningly unexpected given the lameness of its progenitor.

I am amazed this has not received more attention. It's definitely and outlier in the genre.

Having enjoyed the first Tinkerbell I was all for watching this one too. And I liked it just as much. It is too short, with some uneven pacing and insipid dialogue in between, but actually for what it set out to do it was a very nice movie.

The animation is surprisingly very good, not all plastic no substance sort of animation, but quite colourful and somewhat warm and the characters are well modelled. The music is very fitting, memorable and soothing too, while the story while simple is cute and charming with a nice message told subtly.

The characters are engaging, there is more of a focus on Tink and Terence which is not distracting at all and is quite cute, and the voice acting is as good as it can be. All in all, very nice and ideal for especially young girls. 7/10 Bethany Cox
