Title: Voyage of the Heart
Review: Well, it ain't Conan! But that's OK. This is clearly a fantasy film aimed at an adolescent girl audience. Many of the monsters encountered become allies. The action scenes are more slapstick than violent; physical survival is never in doubt. Instead it is the soul of a family that is in peril. Wounded by the untimely death of the mother, can the two sisters and their father repair their relationships with each other and find a way to live with their tragic loss? Ultimately this is a film about grief and healing, a film which retains a surprising depth and sweetness, given the genre. And it accomplishes that without sacrificing the spirit of fun and adventure along the way.
