Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.
... View MoreIt's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

... View MoreThe only thing wrong with this film is the title. It is a story about 'pirates', but it's actually a 'Tinker Bell' movie and she should have been included in this title...Such as 'Tinker Bell's, The Pirate Fairy'. We watched this last night (07/21/2017), me, my mom, and my aunt and we are all beyond 50 years old. Then again, we love Disney! And we all thought this film should get more exposure. It is a gem indeed! If we all had pixie dust and believed in it, we wouldn't be so cruel to each other in this world. Why is the world so mean? Maybe we all need to spend more time watching Disney movies instead of focusing on each other's problems! Way to go Disney!! Keep the movies coming please!
... View MoreReview: This movie is definitely for kids. When I first heard the singing at the beginning, I was really tempted to switch it off, but it does pick up once the pirates get involved. There are a couple of amusing moments, but it's your typical fairy Disney movie, which the kids will always love. The whole fairy dust thing does become a bit tedious after a while, but if your into the Tinker Bell franchise, then you will know what to expect. I was surprised that this was the 5th instalment of Tinker Bell, so I'm completely new to this whole world. Anyway, the kids will love it and I'm sure some adults wouldn't mind it either. Not For Me!Round-Up: No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't get to grips with this film. I totally understand that it is not made for us older male folk, but I thought that I would give it a go for my younger nephews sake. Anyway, the audiences must have loved this movie, judging by the takings, so for family fun, I'm sure that it works in many aspects.Budget: N/A Worldwide Gross: $42millionI recommend this movie to people who are into the Tinker Bell series, which is full of fairies and magical fairy dust. 3/10
... View MoreThe 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.

... View MoreYes, I get it: this movie is intended for little children. Sadly it seems to be appropriate these days to underestimate children's minds really bad. One other reviewer posted "Compare it to the original Disney Peter Pan movie, and it is striking how aged and inappropriate for young children that one feels." No, it's striking how less confidence we have these times when it comes to children. They are far more observant, intelligent and bright than this movie would suggest. The old Peter Pan story surely had it's flaws but it was challenging children and their minds in a good way. This movie is the equivalent to so many sketchy and shallow-brained movies that are made for adult that do not want to think, but just be entertained with their brains shut down.The animations are poor, but would be OK if the movie had depth. The soundtrack is really bad, consisting of sub level pop songs with no charm at all. The characters are super slim beautiful young fairies, that seem to be more obsessed with their look than anything else. Most males are ugly and stupid or at least vengeful and too proud to let the girl fairies to be more than wage slaves. The story is flat and it's clear from the beginning what will happen.If you need to dampen then brain of your kind to prepare it for shallow talk shows and sketchy movies please go on. Otherwise please please appreciate your child more than to feed him/her this fast food movie.
