This epic 10-hour miniseries from the Emmy-winning writer ofGulliver's Travels was a ratings bust on television, but on video and DVD, where it can be enjoyed at one's leisure, it has a better chance to cast its magical spell. Kimberly Williams has never been more enchanting than as Virginia, a waitress who still lives with her janitor father (John Larroquette) and yearns for something exciting to happen to her. Her wish comes true when she and her father are transported from New York City into a dimension that, with apologies to Rod Serling, can only be called the Fairy Tale Zone; nine kingdoms populated by characters from fairy tales of yore. They team up with a dog who's really a prince--Wendell, grandson of Snow White--changed into canine form by the evil Queen (Dianne Wiest), who plots to usurp Wendell's throne. Father, daughter, and his royal dogness are relentlessly pursued through the nine kingdoms by the Troll King (Ed O'Neill) and his three bumbling and horrible children, and the conflicted Wolf (Scott Cohen), who is allied with the Queen but, with the aid of some Oprah-esque self-help books, tames his inner beast and falls in love with Virginia. The 10th Kingdom is a special effects extravaganza. There is indeed, as one character marvels, magic to behold here. But despite the Hallmark brand name and the presence of a grown-up Snow White (Camryn Manheim) and Cinderella (Ann-Margret), bewitched animals, magic mirrors, and trolls, this is not kid's stuff. It can get scary, surprisingly violent, and quite intense; you know, just like real fairy tales. --Donald Liebenson

- Fantastic fun for the whole family!
Hi! I've been watching, and loving, The 10th Kingdom for years now! I finally had to get my very own copy, so here I am.
This is one of the best movies I've ever seen, let alone tv mini-series. I'm not going to go into an in-depth synopsis of the movie. If you want to learn all that, you should watch it for yourself.

- Can't Believe This is Hallmark!
I'm currently watching the first DVD, and it is so CHEESY.The trolls looks like rejects from the 1980's and the wolf character is so over the top he isn't funny.I can't imagine 10 hours of this.
