The Legend of Longwood (2014)
mediocre, Hallmark channel-esque movie for kids
15 June 2015 - 6 out of 10 users found this review helpful.
Gave this a shot, based on the 6.9 star rating, and in the hopes it would perhaps be close to a "Roan Inish"-type movie--a mythical tale that could be enjoyed by all ages. It disappointed, though, sadly. The girl who plays Mickey, the young girl protagonist, does a good job, but she could not out-nuance the boring, predictable storyline and caricatured, "bad adult" characters. The one glimmer of interest, and the best scene in the movie, was that provided by Miriam Margolyes' fun acting (aka Professor Sprout from Harry Potter), but sadly she's not in it long. There's some nice scenery of Ireland and some really beautiful horses, so if you have little girls, they would like this movie, maybe?
