"Tinker Bell and the Legend of the NeverBeast"

⭐⭐⭐⭐

We've reached the end of the Disney Fairies road. The last one is "Tinker Bell and the Legend of the NeverBeast". This is a misleading title because the protagonist in this movie is Fawn, an animal fairy and Tinker Bell's friend. Fawn loves animals and tries to help them. Like Tinker Bell, she is curious and determined to find answers even when it means putting herself into the midst of potentially dangerous situations. She encounters a strange beast and, despite being reprimanded by Queen Clarion for previous actions, Fawn sets out to figure out exactly what this creature is all about. 

This movie has a slightly darker vibe (even more so than "The Pirate Fairy") and somber tone. It moves along a little slow, but ultimately becomes a beautiful story with another great life lesson in it. The animation is once again top notch, though not as vibrantly colorful as it is in some of the previous ones. I am glad this one has narration at the beginning and end because it really ties the story together nicely. One thing that stood out to me in this one that didn't as much in the previous ones was the lyrics in the songs. The song lyrics really capture the essence of this movie. 

This is the final feature length movie in the Disney Fairies series. There are some movie shorts, but I'm not sure where to find them to watch. They are indeed very short, so I most likely won't be actively seeking them out. While the last movie isn't the best, I am glad this franchise exists. It truly has been a magical experience watching all of them and I can almost guarantee I will watch some of them (especially the seasonal ones) again.
