Great Animation, So-so Story
on March 5, 2015
Posted by: CarlM
Verified Purchase:Yes
This film features lush and beautiful animation like most movies from Studio Ghibli. But its story — featuring characters and events from Ursula LeGuin's "EarthSea" novels — feels rushed and disjointed. I have not read the books, so I was coming into this story cold, and the movie failed to make me really care about the principle characters. So by about halfway through I really just was watching the film more for the beauty of the animation than anything else. So it's 5 stars for the animation, 3 stars for the story, overall 4 stars. Maybe a better film to rent than to buy, but if you are an EarthSea fan or a Studio Ghibli nut, maybe you'll love it more than I did.

A Moose Once Bit My Sister...
on March 5, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the only movie I know of that makes me laugh so hard that I start crying before the movie titles are finished. It's wacky, goofy, off the wall, gross, silly, insightful, astute, and absolutely brilliant. And if you know your King Arthur/Grail mythology, it's even more brilliant. Bring out your dead! Test your virtue with the inhabitants of Castle Anthrax! Find a shrubbery! Beware the killer rabbit! Get this Blu-Ray today!!!

It's the Princess Bride! What's not to love?

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Princess Bride, one of the most charming movies of the 1980s, looks better than ever on this Blu-Ray edition. Relive the magic of your childhood (or, in my case, young adult years) and share this with your loved ones. At this price, there's no excuse not to own a copy of this wonderful film.
