Tinker Bell and the Pirate Fairy

This early 2014, the Tinker Bell Universe got another good addition. This DisneyToon children movie did not make me regret taking 78 minutes of my sleeping time, even after struggling through two hours of traffic from office to my home. The Pirate Fairy was a good choice when I feel like in need of light entertainment.

With pretty animation, beautiful colors, and fairies with "superpowers", I could certainly enjoy this movie. It's a good thing the duration is not that long too.

You can see the young Captain Hook here. And remember the ticking crocodile that Captain Hook is so afraid of in Peter Pan movie? You can find it here how come the crocodile ticks, and how come Captain Hook is so traumatized by it.

I think this movie deserves a 7 among other direct-to-video movies, because it gave me a positive mood after I finished watching.

Basically, it's the same story as the first movie, but that's not entirely a bad thing for this fifth enstallmen in the fairy franchise. We do get to see how Capt. Hook and his crew came around.

But the story is this misunderstood fairy gets in trouble and is banished from the Hollow. She joins up with the pirate crew to get it her way, but ends up getting stabbed in the back. But luckily she is rescued by Tinker Bell and her friends who are not amused by her ways as a pirate.

Entertaining movie, maybe not that much to grab adult viwers, unless you're a Disney fan like I am. But credit to the creativity by incorporating familiar faces into the movie to make it more connected to Peter Pan.

I have been a fan of the Tinker Bell franchise, since I started watching them with my children a few years ago. There are relatively few high-quality animated movies that, like this one, are appropriate for very young children, so we look forward to each new installment. The Tinker Bell universe adds a little Pixar magic to the original Disney Peter Pan universe story and brings it up to date. Compare it to the original Disney Peter Pan movie, and it is striking how aged and inappropriate for young children that one feels.

I watched the movie in the cinema during the winter holiday with my daughter (4 1/2 years) and son (3 years). They were glued to the silver screen the hole time and loved it just as much as the other installments. My daughter now wants to be a fairy pirate like Zarina. I enjoyed it, too. I have watched the other four Tinker Bell movies, and it actually manages to renew the universe and bring in new three-dimensional characters like Zarina who tests the limits of Pixie Hollow even more than Tinker Bell.

One of the interesting things in the movie is how they have started to bring in a little more of the original Peter Pan universe in an unexpected way. I would not be surprised to see even more of this in the next installment. I also liked the score, where they added a few pirate songs to the always beautiful fairy songs (I should mention that I watched the Danish-language version of the movie). Summing up, a great movie for young children that adds positively to the charming Tinker Bell universe.

I watched The Pirate Fairy with my nieces and it actually was quite interesting and entertaining.

Now I enjoy animation movies from hand drawn to Computer animation and this one is enjoyable for fans of Disney and families to enjoy.

The Pirate Fairy centers on Tinkerbell (Voiced by Mae Whitman) and her friends trying to stop a rouge fairy named Zarina (Voiced by Christian Hendricks) from stealing the Blue Pixie dust to help her crew along with James (Voiced by Tom Hiddleston).

The plot of the movie is one of the strong points for the movie which is what make my nieces interested through out the film. I do say it is a very good plot that we don't see too often these days in animated films. I like how they have a rouge fairly in the role of a villain.

Disney always been known for their art work and this one is no different it is one of their brightest films.

The animation is very well done with great backgrounds and the character designs are very well done so the animators really took their time to make sure each picture of animation is top notch.

The animation is clearly made for High Definition it is the only way to give the animation for the film justice.

The voice acting is very good as well I was quite surprise that Tom Hiddleston was in this film but again he did well as James hope he can do more animated films in his career.

But every did well for the film as you can normally expect nothing less but well done voice work in Disney films.

I just can't find anything that would not make you want to enjoy watching this with your family. My nieces and I enjoy it very much so with great animation, amazing voice talents and beautiful animation there is nothing to make you turn away from this movie.

I give The Pirate Fairy an 8 out of 10

I'm sure anyone who is a dyed-in-the-wool follower of the Tinkerbell series of movies (like me) will be more than delighted with the latest instalment - Tinkerbell and the Pirate Fairy. A year ago, Tinkerbell and the Secret of the Wings totally blew me away. (So much so that I was extolling that film's praises for several months afterwards.) Well, I'm delighted to say that the same thing (extolling of praises) is pretty much certain to happen with me about this film too! Tinkerbell and the Pirate Fairy simply brims with delightful characters old and new. The plot is superb. Original, intelligent, witty and well constructed (ie there are no discrepancies in the narrative and all loose ends are satisfyingly tied up by the end of the movie). Zarina, the new fairy, is a wonderful addition to the cast. In many ways Zarina's particular 'talent' drives her to behave in ways we have become used to associating with Tinkerbell herself - ie she is inquisitive, takes risks and feels herself impelled to go beyond Pixie Hollow's previously established (and generally accepted) boundaries. I liked that there was plenty of good natured interaction this time among Tinkerbell's regular cohort of friends (Vidia, Iridessa, Silvermist and Rosetta) and many times something one or another of them said would cause me to chuckle with mirth. The action of the skirmishes between the fairies and the pirates is thrillingly animated. Finally, I thought the artwork throughout was top notch and the music, whether sung or instrumental, was both subtle and fitted well with the visuals. There is vastly more that I found enjoyable in this film (told you I'd be extolling the film's praises didn't I!) but I think you've probably heard enough from me by now. Whatever your age or gender (I'm a sixty something male), give yourself a treat ... go see Tinkerbell and the Pirate Fairy. My bet is you won't be disappointed. (Go with a little 'faith, trust and pixie dust' and you'll enjoy it even more!) 10/10.
