not only was this imaginative television movie ahead of Disney's 'Narnia' films by a few years, it's also a lot about how a low budget encourages creativity and can lead to inspired visual solutions. so much of the interesting, 'OZ'/Sid & Marty Kroft retro look was due to obvious budget limitations. good. i thought the visuals were lots of fun. i get a little tired of all the CGI realism in the Disney 'Narnia' films.this also seemed to have a good underlying, Christian message for Christians, much like the C.S. Lewis stories. especially evident in the quote and musical theme, "Faith Proceeds the Miracle".this was a good wholesome action fantasy for families. it features some charming and quaint visual effects that should also amuse most cinema fans.i would also highly recommend this film to Christian audiences because of it's wholesome content and overtly Christian metaphors.

Really terrible. Acting is bad at its best places. No discernible plot, and special effects and stunt sequences are laughable. Looks like it was filmed with a video camera, by a blind man.

this is one of my favorite films ever because the story is so amazing. the acting is really good and its just wonderful! i was so blown away by the set and the props. it really was like a whole other world came to life. I was really glad that this film wasn't like the other films where the characters go to another world. It wasn't like narnia at all. i find that lots of films that deal with traveling to another dimension and all fairly similar. this film was very different! it also wasn't like lord of the rings either. lots of fantasy stories follow the same ideas and principals. This one was different and really good. I love the way the actors worked together. They had a lot of chemistry. that is really important to any play, movie, skit, ext. that was really cool to see on screen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I realy like this film. Not that it's just a wondurf-made fairytale, but it's retelling about human feelings and emotions. Who can safe the world?? What make u happy? These are the questions this film is searching answers for. And actually it did, found them:)))) Of course we are the only persons who can help the world and ourselves by remembering what it is to be a child. And of remembering how could we dream even with eyes wide open:)))))))
