I see lots of people write about how it doesnt follow the books it's based on, or how they just dont like it, and I just want to say that I find this movie to be extremely well done for its time and a good story for kids and family. Somewhat scary for kids but that's the fun and twist since it's a disney movie. I watched it as a kid and the main villain still sticks out as one of the best disney villains of my life. Not only that but the danger and mystery from fairies, magic, strange creatures and artistic style add more to this movie then anything you can find in today's Disney movies. Please give this a try for yourself.
