I really like five children and it. I think it's funny, full of adventure, some scary bits, full of twists and turns and maybe a tiny bit sad for some more sensitive viewers! I think it's a absolute classic with not much to dislike. I think the story is fantastic how the five children are sent to their uncle's castle find a magical sand fairy. The ending is very sweet as well but I can't say anything else about that bit! When watching this you simply fall under the spell of the magical beach that the sand fairly lives in. You almost become the characters imaging all the wishes you can have. I also found it funnier than I expected. It even makes you laugh through the credits with "It" giving endless funny phrases! I love this film and I think it defiantly disserves five stars! Anyone who hasn't seen this I recommend you put it on your wish list it is great!
