Movie Reviews of The Color of Magic
Movie Review: Two Movies for the price of one
Summary: 5 Stars
I was very pleased with this movie, actually the disk has a part 1 and part 2, so there are two movies. The acting is very good, the story is great, and the photo work is first rate. Part one is The Color of Magic (The Colour of Magic) by Terry Pratchett, a fantasy satire. This is the first book in the discworld series. Part 2 is The Light Fantastic the second book in the diskworld series. Together they make the full story. A great way to release a part one and part two of a story, together on the same disk, released at the same time.Movie Review: Welcome to the Discworld!
Summary: 5 Stars
As a dyed-in-the-wool Terry Pratchett fan, I loved this movie! It had everything I expected to see from the first two books that introduce the fabulous world of the Disc. The visual imagery was perfect in every way, the special effects were awesome, and the casting was just brilliant--including a cameo at the beginning and end of the Author himself.
I look forward to seeing all of the Discworld books made into movies--I already have Weird Sisters, Soul Music, and Hogfather. May there be many more to come of this quality!
Movie Review: Color of Magic
Summary: 5 Stars
Whenever you pick up a Terry Prachett novel, you're sure of a rollicking good time.
The same can be said of this movie adaptation. Tim Curry is excellent as the scheming,
pompous protagonist, and the walking "Luggage" and "Death" are major contributors to
the hilarity.
If you're looking for a fantasy movie to watch with your teen/preteen but are sick of
the usual "wizard cliches"; Terry Prachett either avoids them, or skewers them and roasts
them over the campfire.
Movie Review: great compliment to the book
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are a Disc world fan, you will love this movie. It's pretty faithful within it's time restraints to the book, but gives you a real visual treat to add to the book memory. I really hope the makers of the 2 disc world movies continue to add to their credentials as I will be first in line to buy the newest ones.Movie Review: A great mini-series
Summary: 5 Stars
If you like fantasy mini-series, this is definitely a good one to check out! It's got all the hallmarks of the genere - magic, comedy, trials to overcome, fight scenes, etc. Tim Curry is fantastic as the main badguy, and the supporting cast of characters make for a lot of fun.
