Good idea lost in the noise

What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

This is a family movie/war/love story that is quirky and as fun as they come. Kids over 10 will have a good time watching as well as adults (I think younger kids might get upset at one part or another in the movie and adult explaining would have to be brought out so I added an age limit). There are some drinking scenes so any squeamish about having their kids see that should skip this movie. Woopie Goldberg dishes out Morals as the Grand Banshee in this movie and some violent, semi-death, dark Leprechaun/Fairy war scenes to be had but the ending makes everything all bright and shiny again. Emma Townshend (Pete Townshend's Daughter) has a great song called Fly Away Over it All that plays at the end that my former girlfriend, daughter and I enjoyed and I had to get for us for out collection(amazingly enough it is NOT on the Movie Soundtrack).

"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!!

Faries, leprechauns, magic, commedy. A wonderful little world of magic, fantasy and beauty combined with love stories and a beautiful soundtrack.An amazing picture for the whole family

This TV film suffers from being too long, and from playing quite heavily on certain stereotypes of the Irish. Leaving out the 'happy Irish leprechauns doing the Riverdance' scenes would have improved things immensely. The special effects are pretty good for a TV film, and the actors are mostly good in their roles, especially Colm Meaney as Seamus Muldoon. It's unfortunate that Irish legends are so twisted in the story, especially where the Banshee has been turned into some kind of benevolent spirit, played by a very bored-looking Whoopi Goldberg.
