Movie Reviews of Wizards

Movie Review: "Blackwolf has a new secret weapon, we cannot lose!"
Summary: 5 Stars

Wizards was a college favorite. It is a wonderful mind expanding fantasy, it is funny and offers real insight into the nature of power. Bakshi's suggestion that fascism is intellectually self germinating and fatally toxic to peaceful people rings all to true in the modern era. The movement of the animated characters is wonderful.

Quick fact: Bakshi ran out of money during production, this forced him to use rendered images from Eisenstein's Alexander Nevsky to finish the film.

Movie Review: Wizards/Lord of the Rings
Summary: 5 Stars

REALLY enjoyed the special features. Lots of stuff shared directly from Bakshi directly. You may know that the Bakshi Lord of the Rings DVD just has the movie. But because so much of Wizards was basically preperation for the making of Rings, you kind of get some of what should have been given with that DVD.

Movie Review: For the Love of Wizards
Summary: 5 Stars

I remember at the age of 12 my old man taking me to the drive in to see this movie. It was the sexiest cartoon I had ever seen to that point of my young life. I especially loved the ending. I really loved sharing it with my son who is now 16. It is a fantasy classic.

Movie Review: SIgn of the times
Summary: 4 Stars

Seeing this one-time favorite animated movie was good. The cutting edge animation (for the time) was still worthy of respect. As much as I've always enjoyed the combination of free drawing and other media (like many of the evil soldiers), the final battle between the brothers is what makes the movie for me, as it did many years ago.

I passed this movie on to a young law student so he could see how things used to be. I bet he'll like it.
