hi, I have a quick question : I have already reviewed some books on this list, does that mean they don't count ? I can see how that would be, but I just wanted to confirm.

Strange Magic is a nice musical adventure based around love and magic. The main character is a fairy who tries to be tough after her boyfriend turns out to have a different personality than she thought. Mixed in with that is a magical potion and fairies. There is also some action(sword fighting, chase scenes), and I think I enjoyed those the most. It is a decent film, but personally, I think it had too many songs and a little too much romance. However, my younger brother saw the movie, and he really enjoyed it. With that in mind, I think that this movie would be good for kids aged 5/6 and up. This movie would also be a good choice for the whole family to watch, as there are many songs (some old, some new) and even some jokes to keep adults entertained. If you like musicals, then this is a great family-friendly one to watch! There is something in it for everyone, no matter what age! (As for my rating, I wish I could rate this movie 3.5 stars, because it was good but not my favorite)

The thing I'll remember most about this movie (Strange Magic): it has absolutely stunning graphics! All the colors and the details in all of the characters - fairies and animals alike - as well as the realistic looking scenes. Another thing that I really liked was this movie was one of the first that my family has been able to watch together (and all stay interested!) for a long time. My little brother, who is almost 6, was captivated by the entire thing, he loved the music and vibrancy of the whole thing, and even the intense actions scenes didn't scare him, which is really good. And my parents laughed out loud at a couple funny points in the movie! Some of the songs in the movie really didn't appeal to me, personally, but I did like others for moods they created. I really liked how fast-paced this movie is, it never got boring but still was easy enough to follow. If you were a fan of Epic I'd say you'd like this movie, I found it to be (quite) similar, in its scenery and general theme. I liked that the moral of this story (and its almost directly stated, by a character in the end) is to not judge a book by its cover. Great for families!
