reegan-attwater Such a wonderful love story with the brilliant message that love conquers all! This film will bring out the child in all and take you away to a wondrous world of leprechauns and fairies. I find anything with Robert Hamli Snr. involved in it is worth watching and this is no exception! A star studded cast including Randy Quiad, Whoopi Goldberg, Colm Meaney and Kieran Culkin plus a few fresh faces makes this movie a definite one to watch. The lovely scenery is inescapably one of the best features of this film next to the high class cast and crew! Fun for the whole family and fantasy lovers alike! Daniel Betts makes for the eye candy in this family friendly film! Absolutely fabulous!

Elswet Although this does begin slowly, it picks up nicely and proceeds at a fair pace.This is basically set as a commentary on the idiocy of war, having set the Leprechauns against the Faeries over nothing more consequential than race. Although forbidden by the Grand Banshee (Whoopie Golodberg), the fighting continues, as the Troopoing Faeries are the "natural enemies" of the Solitary Faeries. They have no pause to battle one another, as Fae Folk cannot die. Having no consequence to war, war seems a trivial thing to these folks. It is discussed with great dramatics, for to these wee ones, it is but a game of acting and playing, regardless of the caustic cause of the war. Once war is taken seriously, they still engage one another to a surprising effect, via the Grand Banshee, who is attempting to teach them to value their lives via reward and punishment.Too bad humans do not learn from such drastic consequences.Actually, this was quite enjoyable; featuring some great performances, an interesting story, and decent execution. The story is fashioned after a Romeo and Juliet setting, with good contrast between the two opposing sides, and a clearly defined relationship between the involved couple. Additionally, there is a simultaneous romance involving the humans Jack (Randy Quaid) and Kathleen (Orla Brady).Endearing characters, enchanting story with solid morals, and magical execution make this a near-classic.If you like this, you should try Disney's "Darby O'Gill and the Little People," "FairyTale, A True Story," or "Legend: The Ultimate Edition."This rates an 8.4/10 from...the Fiend :.

info-6107 "The Magical Legend of the Leprechauns" Just look at the title and ask your self: "What is this?" Well, I'm now going to answer that. First I would start with the story. A "lepr...something" is in love with a fairy princess (sounds sweet). But they can't have each other (usual stuff) bla bla. Then Mickey kills a fairy. They're having a fight. The fairy kills one of the "lepr...whatever's" friend and then kills the fairy. Now the fairies wants revenge and goes to war against the "lepre...dudes". And then a war starts. Then some people has to save the world, as the nature goes amok, because the fairies are controlling the nature. So they have to stop the war, bla bla bla. So on, so on. Now with top stars: Whoopi Goldberg and (Randy Quaid) this movie sounds good. NOOTT!! As usual there are the special effects, which are of course bad, since it's a TV production. And so is the speed of the movie. And there is no Irish feeling in the people. None of them with the good, old Irish accent. Maybe that's because most the cast includes mostly British or American actors. So don't have high expectations on this movie, cause it (shall I use the word) sucks!!

Papii-2 I bought this movie after seeing the 6.2 rating and almost never post comments, but this movie was so unbelievably bad that I have to warn others.Acting was average, but the story (almost 3 hours long) was easily 2 hours too long. The relationships between the human characters was unbelievably thin, and after the first 90 minutes they seemed to show someone kissing every two minutes. The plot thoroughly stunk - I won't spoil anything for you if you decide not to head my warning - but think at the end of the movie WHO REALLY CAUSED THE PROBLEM! It seemed to me it was just some over exuberant fun that had continued for generations that should have been left alone.The only good thing I can say about the movie is it put my kids to sleep.
