first - for the moral story about greed, love, selfishness and self discover. the second - for the touching performances - Vanessa Redgrave is the best example. not the last- for Matthew Modine ( as fan of him , it was the basic motif for see the series ). but the great thing who defines this series is, obvious, the smart way to use the virtues of an old classic fairy tale for a seductive show . the delicate and precise clash between worlds, the inspired choice for do the characters, the atmosphere and the drops of "The Legend" from the performance of Mia Sara. short, a beautiful series. for the whole family.

I thought that Jack and the Beanstalk: The Real Story was a fantastic film. In terms of editing and cinematography, Hallmark is fast becoming well - known as producers of quality films that revitalize the old classics. Now, in terms of content, "Jack" was a film that I would take my 10-year-old to see in a theater. Because despite one bed scene when Jack (the forbearer of modern Jack) abandons his beanstalk beauty, I think the film really does well at showing what could have happened after Jack cut down the beanstalk.I liked how he built an empire with the goose's eggs. Very intriguing. Of course, nothing I have typed here is a spoiler. In terms of drama and conflict, the film does exceptionally well. Not only does Jack have to answer for the sins of the father, but he must survive in the aftermath of his short stay in the city in the clouds. But I really like what the story teaches about morals and telling the truth; about compassion and doing what is right, for the sake of living a life of integrity and courage.I would say two thumbs up, but that might violate someone else's copyright. So, I'll say Well done, Hallmark. When can I submit my application to be one of your film writers?

Jack and the Beanstalk is a movie which you can put in the same category as the 10th Kingdom. Jack and the Beanstalk is a fairy tale, so normally you might think that this is only for children but the makers of this movie or actually TV-series prove that you can even interest adults with a fairy tale. The special effects are very funny and the story does not bore you for any moment and keeps your attention for the full 3 hours it takes. Jack and the Beanstalk is according to my opinion a masterpiece because it is great to make a movie which interests people from you until old and you can find all aspects in the movie like magic, adventure, humor and of course, how we could forget it Romantic. The qualification from me is 9 out 10 and that means.....well done mates !!!!!!!
