I grew up with this movie, and I absolutely love it. It is very fantasy based, and NOT girly in my opinion. I bought the movie to show my Husband and although he's typically open minded, he was opening complaining about NOT wanting to see it. He ultimately humored me, and we watched it, and I remembered all the awesome imagery and the interesting story.When it was over he said h liked it, but it was more of a "meh" reaction. As for me, I suppose I am still a fan because I have such fond memories of it from when I was a kid, so buy it for your kids! You may find your self loving it to. HEY! Here's a thought, did the company "Red Bull" get their name from this movie? Think about it. ;)
