5.0 out of 5 stars
Just to clarify - NOT an extended version,
By Cowboy Buddha "David" (Essex UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The 10th Kingdom - Complete series (extended) (DVD)
The 10th Kingdom is a fantastic series, no doubt about that, and it can be recommended to anyone who enjoys a good fantasy story with lots of tongue in cheek humour.
However...regarding this alleged extended version from the Netherlands: It does not contain any additional footage from the series. The running time listed adds on the extras. So if you already have a DVD of The 10th Kingdom, you do not need to buy this one as it will be exactly the same, only with Dutch language packaging and menu. Hope that helps.

One of the best adventures I've seen,
By
This review is from: The 10th Kingdom - Complete series (extended) (DVD)
This is a series I first watched aged 15 on Sky 1 and I fell in love with the characters, dialogue and scenery immediately. Since then I've bought this box set and watched it five different times with five different friends and it hasn't failed to enchant any of them (or their boyfriends, who grumble at first but then ASK for it to be put on as the story unfolds more).
It follows Virginia, a young but cynical and disillusioned early-twenties woman. Her dad is a waste of space and quite thick although he means well. And the Wolf. Oooh the wolf. He's a wild-hearted villain at the start but his attraction to Virginia leads him to try and control his nature. The way the characters strengthen each other and bond as they're pushed to their limits is heartbreakingly endearing and the quirky scenery, extras and side plots are extremely funny and well integrated into the story. Anybody who loves fairy tales will be amused by the twists given by them here (there's a frog with the tradition riddle of 'there are two doors, this one will lead to death, but sometimes I lie' riddle solved in a far more contemporary way. The way Wolf treats Virginia's grandma is one of my favourite TV moments EVER). All in all it has the makings of a timeless classic. There's nobody I've met over a range of ages and occupations who's watched it and disliked it. I know I'll happily be watching it another twenty times or so.

Great fantasy story, 1 of a kind,
This review is from: 10th Kingdom [DVD] [1999] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
I sat down with my family and began to watch the first episode, immediately I was lost into a fantasy world of fantasy. The actors are brilliant and the story is well thought of, I watched this when I was young and now im older and I still remember it.The story is about a waitress who finds a dog who was once a prince and she, her father and a wolf go on an adventure to bring the prince back to his human form in time for his ceremony. Of course they get into lots of different adventures on the way and the story makes you feel as though you’re there with them This is truly a wonderful long film and is great for kids and adults alike, if you’re thinking of buying it, buy it
