...petered out into a dismal failure. What happened? Did the first director quit midstream and bring in an undergraduate hopeful immersed in Dungeons & Dragons and other similar Fantasy-driven drivel? The acting is really strong from a few of the actors such as the mother, the police officer, the little girl, the nanny, the drunks in the bar, the fairy-killer, and the lady in the office at the elementary school. I was really interested in the story--it had me utterly hooked--until the entrance of the fairies. I would have been much happier with the town being controlled by witches, though that concept has been way overdone for the past half-century. Good fairies, bad fairies at eternal war with one another. An idea that I can't suspend my disbelief in long enough to take seriously. I'd like my two hours back please. You're fairies, right? Make it happen!
