Disney's first film and it's a classic. I loved it as a child but sadly I find it hard to watch now. The voice of Snow White and the fact she always seems to have her eyes shut grates on my nerves. But that aside it is still a great story and a classic film.

Two hours of my life that I will never get back... The premise is interesting, but this film is just bad. The acting is terrible, the dialogue is cheesy at best and the plot is very predictable. Though to be fair Nicholas Cage was not all that bad... he did the best he could I am sure, but even he was not enough to save this film.

I had never read the books before seeing this film. The hype had put me off. Still a friend managed to drag me to see this in the cinema and I was hooked. It's a magical film that just drew me in from the opening scene. Though the acting of the three young stars is a little iffy at times it is still a fun and entertaining film that remains faithful to the books.

I thought I would like this movie, I really did. I mean it has dancing penguins in it... what's not funny about that? Unfortunately cute was not enough in this case. It features far too many dance scenes that serve no purpose, the humour falls flat most of the time and it goes on for too long. Such a shame, because it had potential.

This is an absolutely adorable version of Hans Christian Andersons classic fable The Littlest Mermaid. Of course being a disney film it's been given a happy ending, but it's still an amazing film. It's simply a lovely romantic story with colourful characters, great songs and beautiful animations. Great for people of all ages.

A heartwarming story combined with lovable characters, gorgeous animation and catchy tunes make this one of the best of the Disney films. I especially loved Jeromy Irons as the deliciously evil Scar.

I adored this film when I was 12 and I still love it today. It's a classic rags to riches story as only Disney can tell it. It features a stand out performance by Robin Williams as the Genie who grant Aladdins wishes. The music is catchy and I hope this film stands the test of time.

I'm not normally a fan of Disney's direct to video sequels, but this third Aladdin film is an exception. It's not quite as good as the original, but is way better than the second. It has all of the humour and the heart of the first one and thankfully Robin Williams has returned to the role of the Genie. A great way to finish off the series.

The film that spawned a thousand spoofs... it has a lot to answer for I can tell you. It's a confusing storyline at first but worth sitting through just for the special effects and the sheer originality of the storyline. For once Keanu Reeves does not grate on my nerves, which is saying something. It might need repeat viewings to grasp what is fully going on, but it's worth it. Avoid the sequels at all costs.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, but I do have to wonder at the casting of Keanu Reeves in the main role. He's just not interesting in this role and his performance is wooden at best. That aside though I loved the story, the special effects were...

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, but I do have to wonder at the casting of Keanu Reeves in the main role. He's just not interesting in this role and his performance is wooden at best. That aside though I loved the story, the special effects were amazing and Rachel Weisz was gorgeous as always.

The balance of good and evil is upset in Fairy Tale Land and no one is getting their happy endings. It's an interesting idea that sadly just isn't quite pulled off here. Although it boasts an all star cast, I couldn't help but think they weren't being used to their full potential and the film just seems to be missing something. It is still worth a look if you like animation films, but don't go into it with high expectations or you will be disappointed.

This was a childhood favourite of mine and I still love it today. Granted the puppetry leaves a lot to be desired, but it was made a long time ago so it can be forgiven for that. It's certainly not for everyone, but if you're a fan of the fantasy...

Aliens invade, lots of death, people running for their lives... blah, blah, blah. This film goes for far too long, the ending is unsatisfying and the storyline is implausible and goes nowhere. The special effects and many action scenes are really the only things going for it, but are not enough to make this worth the time.

This sequel was not as good as I had hoped it would be, but still it was as good as, if not better, than the first. Lots more action to be found in this film and thankfully the acting wasn't so wooden. The script still left much to be desired though.

Cinderella has always been my favourite fairy tale and this version starring Drew Barrymore is definitely a favourite film. Brilliantly cast, gorgeous costumes, fine scenery and an great script makes this film a classic. Though I must admit I have a problem with the English accents used by some of the cast when the film was set in France. Go figure. If you haven't seen it yet, I urge you to give it a go.

What do you get when you cross Madagascar with Finding Nemo? The Wild... only nowhere near as good. The animation is so-so, the story has been done before, the jokes fall flat and the actors voices just don't quite seem to suit the characters. My advice is to give this one a miss.

I had only seen the first episode of Firefly when I saw this film, and I had not really thought much of it. So it was a wonderful surprise when this turned out to be such an amazing film. It's funny, heartwarming (and heartbreaking!) and filled with such wonderful characters and action scenes and the acting and special effects were just top notch. It is one of those films that I will never tire of and I urge you to see it, whether you have seen the series or not. You won't regret it!
