So as a lover of animated films since I was born,I decided to buy the DVD of Tinkerbell and The Pirate Fairy,as I sen the trailers and thought it looked good so on to the review.Zarina(voiced by Life as We Know It's Christina Hendricks)loves experimenting on Pixie Hollow's dust. So when her latest creation goes wrong,she is sent off away from Pixie Hollow and must never come back. A year later and there is a tournament on and things start going awry for Tinkerbell and the Winter/Summer fairies as they are all put under asleep,it is of course Zarina who is out for revenge and has joined forces with a bunch of pirates led by James(Tom Hiddleston from Thor franchise)who is really Captian Hook before he lost his hand and grew a big mustache and wore a curly black wig,like the original 1955 Peter Pan he hates ticking and comes across the first alligator that chases him away later in the film.So when Tinkerbell and her fairy pals try to stop Zarina getting any more of the blue stones that create the magic in Pixie Hollow,Zarina changes all their talents.Now Tinkerbell is a water fairy,Rosetta is a animal fairy and the rest get different talents.SO can Tinkerbell and the gang bring back the magic back to Pixie Hollow and make Zarina go back with them?Overall this 1hr and 15 minute feature will surely delight the Tinkerbell fans out there and for those who are like me a die hard fan of animated movies preferably Disney will also love this movie too. I like how we are introduced to new charcthers like Zarina,and Captian Hook as a young man before he met Peter Pan,and other new fairies. The fairies from Secret Of The Wings also makes a brief cameo in this movie too so yeah I found it entertaining and its a worthy addition to the Tinkerbell Franchise. With music from Natasha Bedingfield The Pirate Fairy is a B +.7/10

When I first heard about The Pirate Fairy I had my doubts about how riveting the movie would be, and to some extent I was right. However, nevertheless the movie is a great way to enjoy a few hours of wholesome entertainment for all ages.This movie was obviously intended for children and for that demographic it is a grand slam. From the beautiful scenery to the magical setting The Pirate Fairy draws children right into the story and keeps them enraptured throughout the movie. Additionally parents can rest at ease knowing that not only are their children NOT being subjected to profanity, violence, and other inappropriate content, their are actually wholesome and positive messages and lessons that the movie highlights and promotes. From the lessons of friendship and camaraderie of the four dust fairies and Tinker Bell to lessons of the movies ending (I don't want to spoil it), parents can expect a positive influence from this movie. (Including being begged by their children to be turned into fairies.) However, unlike the typical children animated movies which are so often spoiled for adults by their simplicity of the storyline and screen-writing, and by the overall childishness of the film, The Pirate Fairy still can be enjoyable for older audiences. I think that in this case the simplicity and wholesomeness prove to be an enjoyable respite from the violent more complex and more "MATURE" adult films we are used.I(a 20 year old male college kid) found The Pirate Fairy to be simple and boring at times and without the slapstick humor usually found in these types of animated films but nevertheless the overall sweetness of the story and lessons sprinkled throughout made the film a movie to be enjoyed, not just tolerated for a few minutes.The acting(voicing) was outstanding. Mae Whitman knocked it out of the park with the irresistible Tinker Bell. Christina Hendricks did a phenomenal job voicing the intrepid Zarina. And what would the movie have been without the infallible Tom Hiddleston as the rascally pirate, James.All in all a great film for the kids which the parents can enjoy along with them(and even alone). Despite the sometimes simplistic script and boring scenes if you power through those moments you wont regret it.Enjoy!!

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.

The fairies are coming, the fairies are coming. That's right Disney's The Pirate Fairy is a phenomenal film. This movie is full of excitement the entire family should enjoy. There are fairies for the girls, pirates and adventure for the boys and great comedy for the parents. Disney's The Pirate Fairy is about a pixie dust fairy name Zarina (Christina Hendricks) who has a lot of great ideas. Zarina wants to use some of her creativity to make new things for the town of Pixie Hallow. She makes a few mistakes and runs off and becomes a Pirate Fairy. Zarina partners up with a pirate named James (Tom Hiddleston) who is actually the younger Captain Hook. Once again Zarina finds herself in a lot of trouble. Now it is up to Tinker Bell (Mae Whitman) and her friends to help save the day.The message of this film is that you should not turn your back on your friends when you do something wrong. In the film, Zarina turns her back on her friends and then later regrets her actions and her friends continue to be there when she is in need. Zarina does not expect the other fairies to be nice to her after what she did to them. The voice actors, Christina Hendricks, Mae Whitman and Tom Hiddleston deliver spectacular performances and really bring their characters to life.My favorite character is Tinker Bell because she is very determined to help her friend Zarina even though Zarina left and was the best friend at the time.My other favorite character is Zarina because she likes to take charge and is really determined to accomplish her personal goals and ambitions. That's what I like about her.My favorite part of the film is when they play the Pixie Hallow games. I really enjoyed the figure skaters and all their cool tricks. I was awed by their performances. We recommend Disney's Pirate Fairy for ages 4 to 10. We give this movie 5 out of 5 SHINING STARS!!!!!! Reviewed by Kendyl and Kayla P., KIDS FIRST! Film Critics.
