Who doesn’t like the Harry Potter movies? We at HerBeauty certainly adore them and can binge-watch the whole movie series at one go. But as good as Harry Potter’s story is, there are still some pretty outstanding movies about magic out there that are worth checking out. From famous movies franchises like The Chronicles of Narnia to lesser known movies like Bridge to Terabithia, Hollywood has graced us with magical stories that are great for people of all ages. So, if you like fantastic plot lines, magical beasts, and fairy-tale settings as much as we do, here are 10 magical movies that should be on your must-see list.
The Lord of the Rings Series
It’s been years since we saw the first Lord of the Rings movie directed by the incredibly talented Peter Jackson and his team of producers, composers, and special effects designers. It is still one of the most impressive true-to-book depictions of a fantasy world inhabited by legendary creatures and various races like elves, orcs, hobbits, and huge talking trees. The author of the books, J. R. R. Tolkien, spent most of his life working on the story of a young hobbit who ventured into the wild with a bunch of friends and a wizard to fight the most evil thing on Earth. Make sure you watch the extended un-cut version of the movies that are packed with additional scenes that weren’t shown in movie theaters!
The Spiderwick Chronicles
Another book adaptation of a great book series, The Spiderwick Chronicles revolves around two brothers, Jared and Simon, and their adventures in the semi-fantastic world, where reality is mixed with fairy-tale creatures and stories of the unknown. Jared’s family leaves New York to stay at an old and seemingly peaceful house of their uncle, Arthur Spiderwick. Disturbing things start happening as soon as they move in, with all the blame falling on Jared as being the biggest weirdo in the family. The kid has no other choice than to investigate what’s going on in the house, and what he finds is beyond human imagination!
The Percy Jackson Series
If you like movies about young boys who discover they have superpowers, then this movie franchise is right up your alley! Percy Jackson might not be a magician in the making, but he is a son of the almighty Poseidon, so he has a trick or two up his sleeve. Be prepared to see a whole bunch of Greek Gods, mythological creatures, horrifying monsters, and more than enough action scenes to keep you glued to the screen for hours. Definitely a must-watch!
The Hobbit
The prequel to The Lord of the Rings actually came out later than the three movies telling the story of Frodo and his adventures with the ‘one ring to rule them all’. Where did that ring come from in the first place, you might ask? Well, The Hobbit has all the answers, as well as fire-breathing dragons, demon kings, elven royalty, and a bunch of grumpy gnomes that try to get their homeland back from the vicious monster that’s been guarding it for hundreds of years. Seems adventurous, doesn’t it? Watch all the three movies in one go and you won’t regret it!
