The story follows a little girl who dresses up as a fairy. When she does so, her older brother tells her that fairies aren't real. She decides to teach him a lesson and show him that, in fact, fairies are real.
This film is very heartwarming. The two kid protagonists (Mila Diaz, Niko Diaz) are quite something. The little girl is absolutely adorable and I loved seeing her teach her brother a lesson. She is so feisty. The storyline is cute but it is a bit confusing. And there is very little dialogue. The plot is pretty obvious, and the little sister gets the upper hand in the end, which is very cute and humorous. The quality of the video is incredibly clear and really makes the film. There are a few close-ups that are well placed and accentuate the different characters. Some camera work is a bit shaky during the scenes where the characters are walking. The costumes work well, especially the little girl's fairy costume. The forest location is gorgeous and quite a bit of the film takes place there. The trees are so tall and the rich green colors surrounding the characters is striking. The background music is a critical part to this film, since there is very little dialogue. The music drives a lot of the action and gives the film a mysterious energy, especially during the scenes with the fairy - it gives her a very ethereal feeling. It's definitely worth a good laugh, especially for siblings that can relate to it. The film's message is to respect other people's ideas and opinions.
I give Fairies Aren't Real 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 5 to 8. By Sofia T., KIDS FIRST!
