Jack And The Beanstalk
This Time...It's No Fairy Tale.
Once upon a time, Jack And The Beanstalk was a fairy tale, but for Jonathan William Von Hapsburg Robinson )Jack, for short), it's part of his history - a giant secret buried in the Robinson family closet for centuries. In order to undo the ancient family curse, Jack must return to a different place and time, to a fantastic world where fairy tales come true. Here, a handful of beans really can produce magic, a goose really can lay a golden egg, and a beanstalk does indeed reach into the heavens where an immortal giant lives, breathes, and swears vengeance for all eternity. Prepare yourself for the larger-than-life truth behind a modern-day fable that reaches new heights in fantastic entertainment.

Great movie, BAD main character. - Chrissa
To me Matthew Modine couldn't act to save his life, he is fake and too scripty.
Other than that the movie was awesome, the length was perfect as some movies leave us in the dark of what really happens in the end. Everything was told in great detail and THAT I like.
A truly fantastic story -Gorgeous and clever story, truly spellbinding, even for an adult.
Most people might be put of by the idea that this is just a retelling of the Jack and the Beanstalk story, but in reality it is so much more. It is one the most entertaining programs i've seen for ages.Good take on a traditional story - will3
I enjoyed this version of Jack. I remember watching it when it first came out and decided to zip it so I could watch it with my daughter now that she is older.
I won't restate the summary but instead say that it was well done an my daughter (7) enjoyed it very much. And it was nice to have her surprised with the progress of the story (because at the time she only knew the typical Jack story).
