Customer comments on this selection.
an unusual spin... an unusual spin to an "old" fairy tale. I bought it for my young niece and enjoyed watching it with her. She is 4 so I fast forward the scary scenes now which doesn't make her happy (she likes scary). An appropiate film for older children
Jack and the Beanstalk:The Real Story The item was in perfect condition and sent in a speedy manner.I am very pleased with this contact!
One of the Most Underrated Movies Made for TV by Hallmark. This movie runs almost 3 hours - 174 minutes, too bad it was shot at 1:33 aspect ratio.
Nominated for 4 Emmys and won 2
PG Rated
Starring Matthew Modine, Vanessa Redgrave, Richard Attenborough, Darry Hannah and Jon Voight
Such a wonderful story written by Brian Henson (son of Jim Henson and Co-CEO of the Jim Henson Company). How many Jack and the Beanstalk movies have you seen yet? But this one is really different, I guarantee you. It is long but worth every minute of it.
The movie started on a site where there is a preparation to build a luxurious casino. It was a stormy night, shown is a couple of gigantic bones which is a part of a skeleton which later was proven to be not of dinosaur origin.
Jack Robinson is a wealthy businessman who owns the company that is building the casino. He is young and looks full of life. Unfortunately, all his descendants have died mysteriously before the age of 40. A family curse that he never believed until he met his aunt. Jack believes that all the family's wealth are the result of his kins' hard work and sweat. A difficult fact that he will learn in his search for who he really is. He will meet the mysterious Mia Sara, someone who is from the world beyond the clouds, where more of his adventures will continue. The love story part is magical and wondrous.
We have seen this movie 5 times and still love every part of it. The camera effects are not your typical Lucas and Spielbergs but quite magical in its own merit.
It was brokenin the box, I never even opened it I sent for this DVD, and when it arrived in the mail, it made noise when you shook the box it came in. I have been busy, and have not had time to complain about it till now. I want a new,good one, and don't feel it's fair wasting my time shipping it back to you.
Love watching this over and over again...even teared the 2nd time! Watched this on TV and searched for this movie and found it! Watched over and over again and love it still. Story line and special effects are great...realistic but not still imaginative.
