Product Description
Disney Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure (Blu-ray and DVD)This animated adventure follows the tiny pixie from Peter Pan Tinker Bell as she bands togetherwith her fairy friends to create the famous Fall Scepter - a magical and important task, that will restore the world's supply of fairy dust, and set things right in Pixie Hollow for another year.

Amazon.com
Tinkerbell is back for a whole new season of adventure in Tinkerbell and the Lost Treasure. Pixie Hollow is all abuzz with preparations for autumn and Tinkerbell is hard at work on her latest invention when she is unexpectedly summoned by Queen Clarion and the Minister of autumn. Tinkerbell fears that she's in trouble again, but is instead delighted to find out that Fairy Mary has recommended her for the important job of creating a one-of-a-kind scepter that will focus the light of an unusual blue harvest moon through a rare moonstone in order to replenish the pixie dust tree's supply of pixie dust. Tinkerbell gladly rises to the challenge, accepting her dust-keeper friend Terrence's offers of help, but as the days fly rapidly by, pressure begins to build and Tinkerbell becomes annoyed by Terrence's constant attention. Sending Terrence away on an errand seems like a good idea, but what he brings back inadvertently causes the almost finished scepter and the incredibly rare moonstone to break into pieces. Tinkerbell lashes out at Terrence and then departs alone on a desperate quest to fix the moonstone. What Tinkerbell learns on her journey is that she must take responsibility for her own actions and that the power and value of true friendship is much greater than she'd ever imagined. Like the first Tinkerbell, the colors and clarity of animation are simply breathtaking in this production, but the story lags somewhat thanks to a lengthy set up and a general lack of suspense in the first half of the film. Still, it's a perfectly entertaining movie that will delight children ages 3 and up as well as satisfy most parents. Returning voice talent includes Mae Whitman, Kristin Chenoweth, Jane Horrocks, Anjelica Huston, Jesse McCartney, and Raven-Symone. --Tami Horiuchi

It's just as entertaining as the last movie! My daughter insists on watching this at least once a day! I hope more blu-ray manufacturers follow suit and have every blu-ray include a standard dvd as well. It would've been nice to see what the bd-live is all about.

Disney is at it again wooing our young impressionable minds with its tale of enchanment and wonder.
The first Tinkerbell movie hinted at what might be a nice franchise with pixie hollow taking center stage, the storyline was kind of outshined by the HD animation however. This time Tink is off on her own adventure filled with personal growth and lessons in friendship and family. The CG animation is excellent overall and the cast is full of standout voice work. The running time is a bit short, but an engaging tale is told for young and old alike. My under2 year old daughter was held rapt by the visuals and my 8 year old son had a great time with the humour and action. Disney has started to put a second DVD disc in with its Blurays and I applaud this as 2 copies are better than one and Digital copies are more of a pain than anything. If you like The Littles or the Borrowers then you will find this trip with the fairies enjoyable as the is some inventive detail along the way.
Great family entertainment that stays true to the "DISNEY MAGIC".



4 out of 5 stars A good story for kids about friendship   November 18, 2009
R. Suarez Giacoman (Mc Allen, Texas United States)
"Tinker bell and the lost treasure" arrives as s a follow up to 2008's Tinker Bell (BD Live) [Blu-ray] and it follows the same structure as it predecessor, a story for kids (especially girls for obvious reasons) about friendship. Without getting into many details, this 80 min movie tells the story of Tinker Bell being in charge of a very important item to the whole community of Pixie Hollow: the moonstone, when it is accidentally shattered, Tinker bell must go on a quest to make things right in time before the sacred ceremony where the moonstone would be used. If you have kids, or if you are familiar with this kind of movies, you know what to expect, the heroin goes in a journey where she will face dangers and meet new friends; I am not saying that in a bad way but the opposite, my kid loved this film, the colors, the music, it has the Disney signature all over it.

The Bluray presentation is well worth the money, presented in an aspect ratio of 1.78:1 and in 1080p, colors come to life, the detail and clarity on the computer graphics look simply beautiful and the effects shine on an HDTV set. While kids may not even care about the HD details, young people familiar with the format and HD enthusiast will not be disappointed with the transfer, Disney, as usual, does not fail to deliver.

Audio options include an English 5.1 DTS-HD Master audio track, French and Spanish 5.1 Dolby Digital. Subtitles included are also English, French and Spanish. There isn't much to say about the audio, while presented in HD, this movie does not really have any sequences that takse full advantage of an HD audio track, sound is quite decent and clear, but don't go expecting anything impressive (I know I wasn't)

A nice addition to the release (as with other Disney releases) is the inclusion of a standard DVD copy of the movie, the DVD is enhanced for widescreen TV's and includes subtitles in English, French and Spanish. Audio options are the same as in the BD only that for obvious reason there is no HD track but a 5.1 Dolby Digital instead. This is great as I don't think I'll be watching the BD too often, instead I can have my kid watch as may times as desired in our DVD player .

The bonus features included (in both the BD and DVD) are:

* A magical guide to Pixie hollow - Tinker Bell and Terence take you explroe Pixie hollow, not really that entertaining and the visuals are different from the ones in the movie, the animation on this feature looks cheaper than the overall film.

* Pixie hollow comes to Walt Disney World - A short documentary of the Tinker bell coming attractions in Disney Parks.

* Scenes you never saw -Nothing more than a collection of bloopers

* All new music video - "The gift of a friend" performed by Demi Lovato

* Deleted Scenes

Highly recommended for fans of Disney animated films and fans of the Tinker Bell franchise. Disney delivers another impeccable HD release.



4 out of 5 stars Enjoyable for its target audience, watchable for adults   November 18, 2009
S. Jentsch (United States)
When Disney released its first "fairy" video, Tinker Bell (BD Live) [Blu-ray], it was pretty obvious that they were setting the stage for what they most likely hoped would be a new franchise through which movies, merchandise, and other marketing opportunites would spring. It served as a primer for the entire fairy world that the character from Peter Pan now inhabits.

That first video had a decent storyline and was competent from a picture quality and sound quality perspective. It was also effective as a marketing tool, as my daughter was very excited about getting figurines for the fairies featured in the video. Score one for Disney!

If you liked the first movie, you'll probably like Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure more. This installment has a specific storyline, without the burden of establishing a multitude of characters, and the focus remains on Tinker Bell and her challenge of creating a new sceptre for the Autumn Revelry, which is a major celebration of the changing of the seasons and how the Pixie Dust Tree is restored to continue providing Pixie Dust for all the fairies.

A pleasant surprise was the lesson that Tinker Bell learns about friendship, especially under pressure. Her friendship with Terence is strained when she blames him for an accident that happens, even though his only intent was to help his friend with her project. How she handles that situation can be a talking point with your kids, or you can just let it stand on its own to see if the kids pick up on it themselves.

The picture quality was good, with the high definition AVC-encoded video showing no signs of problems of any kind. If anything, the picture is so pristine, the animation is too smooth. While it makes sense that we're not going to see production qualities matching the Pixar movies, I guess it's a good problem to have! While the DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 channel sound mix was also not up to the standard of Pixar releases, one has to remember that this is a direct-to-video release and set expectations accordingly. It's too bad, though, since fairies buzzing around and the environments in which Tinker Bell finds herself would have provided plenty of opportunities for an active sound mix.

The extras included in this title are pretty good for a direct-to-video release. Some featurettes provide some depth to the moviewatching experience, including several deleted scenes with introductions by the Director and Producer. I found the deleted scenes to be the most interesting because of the background information that they provided. The fact that all these extras were in HD were a nice surprise, as some bigger-budget titles don't receive the same treatment!

While the package advertises BD-Live functionality, I didn't find the content there all that interesting. Some trailers for upcoming releases in theaters and on home video were available, and they downloaded quickly and had pretty good video quality. However, there wasn't anything in that section that extended the moviewatching experience for this title in a significant way.

One disappointing aspect of this disc is the lack of auto-resume capability. On the Blu-ray format, that capability has to be provided by the software on the disc, but it wasn't included on this one. We watched the movie in two sittings, and we had to manually find where we left off because the disc would not recognize where we stopped watching, and bookmarking was not supported either. Since other Disney releases have this very handy feature (the High School Musical 3 disc asks you if you want to resume the movie or start from the beginning), the Blu-ray programmers at Disney need to be sure to draw from tools that the company has already developed.

Disney has been releasing Blu-ray titles with DVD's included in the package, and this is a wonderful thing! You can watch the high definition disc at home and take the DVD along with you in the car or when traveling where you most likely don't have a Blu-ray player. Every studio should do this, and Disney should be commended for taking the lead in providing their customers with the extra value.

Overall, this is an enjoyable movie for kids and adults, and the additional items (extras, DVD version) included make it a package worth purchasing.



4 out of 5 stars Good family film   November 18, 2009
Bass Cadet (California)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

With a wife and two young daughters, selecting this was a no-brainer. I was sure they would enjoy it. The only question was my older daughter (5 years old) is very sensitive to loud sounds and unsettling situations. But she had no problems at all with this, so I would recommend it even for more sensitive (easily scared) viewers. My wife and younger daughter (3 years old) also liked it immensely.

What's surprising is that I actually found it watchable. I usually get bored with predictable plots and am not into fairies or fairy tales. [Off topic: my daughters dressed as fairies for Halloween and won third place in a costume contest. The announcer kept calling them butterflies so my older daughter asked me why. I told her most guys don't know the difference and if I didn't already know I would call them butterflies, too.] But I sat through this movie without fast forwarding and thought it had a decent storyline, had good lessons about friendship and responsibility, and had very good graphics and sound. There were some sections that seemed to drag while other sections seemed rushed, as if to wrap up in under 80 minutes, but overall it was a good length.
