Fantasy movies are great because they let your imagination go beyond the real and logical. In a world of make believe, everything is possible.

We love fantasy movies, especially those based on famous books and later made into films. Sometimes they're better than the books, sometimes they don't quite match up. The nice thing about fantasy movies is what you take out of it. These movies go beyond what you think are possible. They enhance your imagination, venture the supernatural, and broaden comprehension to beyond normal possibilities and acceptable facts.

The following is a list of the fantasy movies we love or like a lot.
