Pros: Cool story, makes fun of itself at time

Pros: The character Wolf.
Cons: The character Virginia.
Summary: I bounced back and forth from being entertained by this movie, to being utterly bored. There were just so many flips of character, changes of scene, and other things that made it hard to rate the movie as consistent, and at times I even felt like I was ... read more

Pros: Acting, adult fairy tales, different, downright fun
Cons: A few hokey moments (but those can't really be helped)
Summary: Back when I was, yikes, about 15 or so, Hallmark put together a miniseries that aired on NBC called The 10th Kingdom. I, like so many other girls, fell in love with Wolf and the whole story (as if I needed anything else to tantalize me when it ... read more

Pros: The film pros:
The special effects.
The plot twists.
Wolf, wonderfully played by Scott Cohan
Cons: There are no cons in the film except an unanswered question:
What's Wolf's real name?
Summary: I first saw 10th Kingdom a few years ago on sky, and out of curiosity bought the DVD and watched it a few days a go.(mostly because of hearing Beyonce Knowls singing her version of the theme song in an advert) It enthralled me more than I could ever ... read more

Pros: Superb acting (mostly), great special effects, brilliant musical arrangements, Kimberly Williams is gorgeous

Pros: 6 hour movie makes time seemingly fly...Keeps you on the edge of your seat.
Cons: (Like any fairy tale) Has lame portions that almost put me to sleep.
Summary: As I watched the film "The 10th Kingdom," I began to wonder why it was not a very well known movie. Maybe the fact that it can literally put the viewer to sleep has something to do with that, or maybe because it takes a whopping 6 1/2 hours of your ... read more
