Tinker Bell and her fairy friends are back once again to sprinkle half terms with pixie dust with the all new movie. From the world of “Peter Pan” comes Disney’s “Tinker Bell and The Pirate Fairy,” an all new swashbuckling animated adventure sets sail in cinemas on 14th February 2014. What’s good about this new Disney movie is that it stars Zarina, a rebellious character who is creative, curious and loves experimenting with science and biology.

Despite being initially misunderstood, in the end Zarina is rescued by her friends and also gets appreciated by her peers for the skills she is so passionate about.

The special effects are really well made and the 3D effects enhance the colours of the fairy’s dresses really nicely.

It is suitable for kids of all ages. There are no scary parts and all kids from 2+ to 8+ seemed to really enjoy themselves. It’s action-filled, the pace is just right and it is also educational.

Boys enjoyed it as much as girls especially the pirates’ scenes with lots of funny sword fighting.

My son also loved the character of the baby crocodile who is ‘adopted’ by the fairies and becomes their saviour. Really sweet and very Disney like animal. He has the potential to become the star of his own movie one day….
