Review

A star rating of 3 out of 5.

A runaway fairy spells trouble for Pixie Hollow in this fifth outing for our impish heroine and her friends. Mad Men's Christina Hendricks voices Tinkerbell's wilful and inquisitive friend Zarina, who is forced to flee under a black cloud after her home experiments into alchemy backfire spectacularly. When she does return, it's in the guise of the pirate fairy - and she has plundering in mind. Staving off franchise fatigue, this episode is the first to really play around with Peter Pan lore, as it becomes increasingly apparent that the real villain of the piece (voiced with glee by Tom Hiddleston) is a familiar foe of old. There's also fun to be had as Tink and the gang get their talents in a twist and befriend a cute baby croc, plus there's a rollicking sea shanty in The Frigate That Flies. It all adds up to another predictably short but reassuringly sweet offering in the DisneyToon series.
