Modern fairytale that requires imagination & willingness to be simply entertained

Rating: 8/10 (12 April 2009)

I have seen many bad movies and this is not one of them. If you simply want to be entertained w/out being overly critical and understand that this movie is a considered a modern fairytale, then you will love it. If you are looking for the '100 % - no loop-hole story movie' then you'll be disappointed. I recommend this movie when your mood needs to be picked up, when you want to believe anything is possible and when you're in the mood for happy ending and a chain of "coincidences" that are simply outrageous but still feel so good in the end when it comes together. Enjoy Robin Williams' acting, the looks of Jonathan Rhys Meyers (who impresses as Henry VIII in Tutors/Showtime) and fall in love w/ Freddy Highmore's dimples. And if none of that works out for you, Jamia Simone Nash's singing voice and incredible cute face most definitely has to convince you that you invested your time wisely when picking this movie to watch. Simply... enjoy!
