A vibrant look at the magical world of fairies and the wonder of the changing seasons, Tinker Bell is the captivating story of one of Disney's most beloved fairies. Pixie Hollow is a land where fairies constantly create and improve upon the beauty of the four seasons and prepare to bring the changing seasons to the mainland. When Tinker Bell is born, she discovers she is destined to be a Tinker fairy; one who invents gadgets to help fairies do their jobs more efficiently, but she is disappointed with her supporting role and yearns for a more impressive job. While her fellow fairies assure her that she plays a vital role in the arrival of spring, Tinker Bell shuns her calling and attempts to become something she's not. In the end, Tinker Bell's efforts cause a disaster that threatens to delay or even cancel the coming of spring and only inspiration and a firm belief in her own strengths can lead Tinker Bell to fulfill her destiny and save spring. This CGI product ion features truly breathtaking vividness and clarity, does a great job of portraying the world of nature from a fairy's perspective, and creates a nice sense of consistency between its final frames and the opening of the original Peter Pan film. Notable voice talent includes Mae Whitman, Kristin Chenoweth, Jane Horrocks, Anjelica Huston, Jesse McCartney, and Raven-Symone. Other DVD bonus features include the interactive "Tinker Trainer" game, tour of the realms of Pixie Hollow, a look at how fairies put the wonder in the world around us, Selena Gomez's music video "Fly To Your Heart," and deleted scenes. (Ages 3 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

We are Disney passholders and were lucky enough to be invited to watch the movie this afternoon in it's entirety at Disney World! Let me just say it was wonderful!! Both myself and my almost 4 year old daughter were mesmerized by the graphics, the color and the story. It is very well done and I hope everyone has the opportunity to see it on the big screen like we did today because it is just beautiful. FYI, there are 3 more movies to follow this one, hopefully on the big screen. The message of the movie is also great for kids, that we can't all be good at everything but that's ok! Tink is such a cute character as are the other fairies, I sometimes forgot they weren't real! LOVED THIS MOVIE!!!
This is how Disney should be done! October 30, 2008

You see a lot of reviews saying how little kids will love this movie, well, I'm 43 and I don't have any kids, and I thought this was one of the best Disney videos I've seen in years.
Full of color and light and fun, an uplifting message, gorgeous animation, and a wonderfully imaginative take on the fairies' world, I enjoyed this movie so much I went to work the next day and told everyone about it.
If you want to recapture that feeling of innocence, joy, and imagination that you used to have as a kid watching the Wonderful World of Disney or seeing the Disney cartoon movies for the first time, this is the way to go. A sweet, charming, cheerful movie, with great characters that I'll be happy to see again. And I'll get to, since there are apparently a couple of sequels coming out. I sincerely hope they hold up to this standard.
By the way, I watched my copy in 3D with a pair of TV Eyes 3-D glasses I found online. This movie looks fantastic in 3D, almost like it was made for it! That may be responsible for part of my enthusiasm. I definitely suggest watching it in 3D if you have the chance. It's amazing.
I've noticed Disney has finally started to go back to it's roots, making more imaginative, wonderful, and heartwarming stories again (instead of just refilming old movies) if this video is an example of the way they're headed, then I'm back on the train for the ride. This may be about an old character, but it's a fresh new movie in it's own right. If I'd never heard of Tinker Bell I'd still think it was excellent entertainment.
Good 'ol Disney magic... October 18, 2008

I was lucky enough to see a this early, and it is a truly wonderful film, especially for a straight to video feature. I prefer 2D animation to 3D, but the animation here is beautiful, particularly with the illustration of the different seasons. The story is captivating, charming, and full of magic, and the explanation of each fairy's talent is tons of fun. Tinker Bell sure has come a long way from the jealous little pixie in "Peter Pan". As some have mentioned, Mae Whitman does a wonderful job giving Tink her first voice. And the soundtrack is lovely and quite refreshing. It has a distinctive Celtic flavor, and the very talented Loreena McKennitt lends her voice to the piece.
I can't wait to buy this and watch it again with my 10-year-old sister!
I Recommend Every Girl Watch This Movie! November 10, 2008

I'm not particularly a fan of cartoon movies, but when Tinkerbell was released, I decided to sit down and watch it with my daughter and son. I'm so glad I did!
Tinkerbell is by far one of the best movies by Disney. Finally, Disney made a movie with a really important theme and message: Everyone is special and unique; there is nobody who can do what you do, like you do it. I walked away after watching Tinkerbell, feeling better about myself (and I'm 32 years old!). If I felt that way, then I know both my kids did as well.
This movie has a great message that every child can benefit from. I especially recommend every mother watch this with your daughter(s). Even my 5-year old son enjoyed it and watched it 3 more times the first day after we watched it together!
BRIEF SYNOPSIS OF MOVIE: Tinkerbell wants to be just like all the other dust fairies. She watches them bringing beautiful things to life and she wants to be just like them. But Tinkerbell is a tinker fairy, so when she attempts to bring spring things to life like all the others, she ends up creating mass chaos instead. Because of her wanting so badly to be like all the other fairies, she destroys all the hard work everyone else has been doing to bring spring to the Mainland.
Tinkerbell finally has an "AHA!" moment, when she understands that even though she isn't like all the others, her unique talent (fixer-upper) is exactly what is needed if the fairies can save spring. She quickly puts a plan into action, gathering all sorts of "stuff" and tinkers her way into creating tools all the fairies can use to save spring.
Very cute! November 1, 2008

This is a very cute movie all about the origins of Peter Pan's sidekick Tinkerbell, and the trials and tribulations she goes through in her quest for self-discovery. I showed this movie to the students in my classroom during our Halloween party, and they all loved it, even the boys! I loved it, too!
It's a very easy movie to fall in love with, really. Tinkerbell is such a sweet, kindhearted and determined character, it's hard to believe she's the same jealous, spiteful little witch who tried to kill Wendy in Peter Pan. Her gaggle of pixie girlfriends are all very cute and likable, and her nerdy guy friends are really funny. The storyline is typically Disney, all about loving and accepting yourself as you are. And just like a typical Disney flick, it brought a tear to my eye!
This is an adorable, enjoyable film, and extremely well-made considering it is a straight-to-dvd movie. (let's be honest folks, As good as Disney movies are, their straight-to-dvd selection is sorely lacking in the quality department.) And from what I understand, this film suffered a number of setbacks and the original script had to be scrapped as it was practically unwatchable. Well, they certainly came a long way! I'll definitely be picking up subsequent Tinkerbell films, much to the delight of my students.
