Amazon.com:
This ambitious miniseries begins with Jack's descendant (Matthew Modine) and works its way backward to the story of the original young man and the beanstalk. Because the first Jack used that towering vine to steal a giant's magic goose and harp, an entire world was reduced to poverty and a bloodline was cursed--all Robinson men die in their 40s, and the modern-day Jack is around that age. Fortunately, Ondine (Mia Sara), a visitor from the giant's alternative reality, has a plan. If she and Jack can recover the stolen items in time, they may be able to solve both problems. The made-for-TV movie boasts top stars (including Vanessa Redgrave and Jon Voight) and Jim Henson's Creature Shop's nifty special effects. Although children younger than 10 may find the complex narrative confusing and the implied violence scary, Jack and the Beanstalk is an inventive retelling that adds new life to an old story. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Rating: - an unusual spin...
an unusual spin to an "old" fairy tale. I bought it for my young niece and enjoyed watching it with her. She is 4 so I fast forward the scary scenes now which doesn't make her happy (she likes scary). An appropiate film for older children

Rating: - One of the Most Underrated Movies
Made for TV by Hallmark. This movie runs almost 3 hours - 174 minutes, too bad it was shot at 1:33 aspect ratio.
Nominated for 4 Emmys and won 2
PG Rated
Starring Matthew Modine, Vanessa Redgrave, Richard Attenborough, Darry Hannah and Jon Voight
Such a wonderful story written by Brian Henson (son of Jim Henson and Co-CEO of the Jim Henson Company).How many Jack and the Beanstalk movies have you seen yet?But this one is really different, I guarantee you. ... Read More
Rating:  - It was brokenin the box, I never even opened it
Isent for this DVD, and when it arrived in the mail, it made noise when you shook the box it came in. I have been busy, and have not had time to complain about it till now. I want a new,good one, and don't feel it's fair wasting my time shipping it back to you.
Rating: - Love watching this over and over again...even teared the 2nd time!
Watched this on TV and searched for this movie and found it!Watched over and over again and love it still.Story line and special effects are great...realistic but not still imaginative.
