Greens are particularly gorgeous as are the film's many close-up shots. It's not exactly on par with any of the House of Mouse's theatrical efforts, but for a direct-to-video release, it's stellar. Tinker Bell's 1.78:1 image is filled with pretty colors and sharp imagery. It has a sweet little message and just enough sparkle to keep its target audience riveted for just over an hour.Īt this point, it shouldn't be too surprising to hear that Disney delivers a stunning image on Blu-ray. However, girls and even some parents will enjoy this latest adventure and the many fairies sprinkled throughout. With all of the giggling and girlieness, Tinker Bell: Secret of the Wings is going to be a tough sell for most little boys. And when the two get together, they laugh, fly and sparkle like never before.
See, there's a fairy named Periwinkle (Lucy Hale) on the other side, and she and Tinker Bell seem to have a special bond - because they're sisters, of course. Unfortunately, too much time in the Winter Woods can also make those same wings freeze up and even crack! Isn't that always the way? However, Tink seems pretty bent on crossing the border because it makes her wings all sparkly.
In her latest adventure, our favorite fairy finds herself drawn to the Winter Woods, where Pixie Hollow fairies are strictly forbidden. That voice cast includes Anjelica Huston, Timothy Dalton, Lucy Liu and Raven-Symone. Mae Whitman ( Arrested Development) continues to voice the title character, with a pretty stellar backup roster, especially for a direct-to-video title.
The fourth film in the franchise is Tinker Bell: Secret of the Wings. However, this pint-sized character has made quite a splash with her small-screen, direct-to-video efforts. Sure, she's part of the wildly successful Peter Pan and has popped up in a few other theatrical efforts. Tinker Bell is one of Disney's most iconic characters - and one of the few of her stature (not literally) that has yet to achieve theatrical film success.
