Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

Rexanne It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Jesper Brun It failed to grab my feelings at too many levels. The only thing I really think was great was the surprisingly beautiful forest landscapes and patchwork montages shown in the beginning of the movie and a couple of the voice actors performances like Christopher Lee and Angela Lansbury. Aside from that it didn't really get to me. The beautiful forest was abandoned pretty quickly and the patchwork did only turn up a few times, so it couldn't save the experience, because the too stilted and awkward character animation and the off-pitch musical numbers sung by the prince and Amalfia/the unicorn really dragged it down. There were some designs like The Red Bull and the unicorn itself which were well done, but the central themes of the movie and the quest the unicorn goes on just isn't consistent in its pacing. It either goes frantically fast or drags itself too slow. I really wanted to like it, but it just didn't have to be so. If you like it it's fine, but that did not do the trick for me.

achsaphillippi8 I've heard of this movie every now and again, and I've only ever heard good things about it. I read the graphic novel, and it was fantastic, so it only made sense to check out the movie. I was disappointed, to put it simply.Over the course of the opening credits, I got a bit excited to see so many big names: Mia Farrow, Alan Arkin, Christopher Lee, and Jeff Bridges! But the ear-bleedingly bad 80's music started playing and my expectations lowered significantly. As soon as the first moving character came on the screen, they lowered even more.The animation is just awful. I know it's an older film, but Disney's oldest movies still look better than this! The characters move strangely, and their lips don't sync with their voices very well. The best animated character was the Red Bull, and even that wasn't very impressive. The story is interesting in of itself, but I don't think it was executed in the best way. The dialogue was hammy and awkward, once again making old Disney animations look superior in comparison. The big name actors didn't seem all that enthusiastic about delivering their lines, not that it mattered because the characters were pretty boring to begin with. Even Christopher Lee, with his wonderful villainous and menacing voice, seemed to be half-assing it. I suppose there was some kind of message or point to this whole story, but I'm not entirely sure what it was.I've read the graphic novel (which was written years after this film), and it made a lot more sense. The art was also better. I was very surprised to find that this movie had so much praise on this site, until I realized that 90 percent of those reviews were written by people riding on a nostalgia high. I guess I don't feel anything from The Last Unicorn because I didn't first watch it when I was 4.Should I recommend it or not? I don't know. I'll have to watch this film again, because I need to find something good about it. I wasn't ready to give it a 1 out of 10, because I didn't feel angry or betrayed after watching it. Just confused.Go watch it if you like childish fairy tales and unicorns, and if you don't mind awful cheesy 80's pop.

DangerAwesome "The Last Unicorn" is an animated film with great drawings, decent animation, a mediocre plot, and horrible pacing. The pacing is dictated by the music. The music is both a strength and a weakness.The plot could easily have been condensed into way less than that of a feature film. Frequent breaks for musical numbers is the only reason it reaches 90 minutes. And even then, the non-music parts of it are rather slow. I'm not saying the music in the movie is a bad thing, but it both lives and dies by it. On one hand the music isn't that great by itself, but on the other hand the movie seems designed to fit itself around the tone of the music. And in that way it fits very well.The one thing I loved about this movie was the drawings. Especially when they showed the darker and evil characters. The drawings for the red bull and harpy Celaeno were amazing. The contrast to the unicorn and her overly contoured childlike drawing helped set them apart and make them amazing as they were.The movie is full of holes if you are thinking about it too hard. It's too slow, the music isn't that good, Molly Grue cries out "Schmendrick!" at least 10,000 times. It's one of those movies with a good concept and good morals, but if you try to dissect it you will succeed. I'd bet young girls will love it. To an adult it's not as unbearable as the title may suggest, but it's nothing spectacular.

gregorygaugau I loved this film. It is, at its essence, the story of someone who thought she knew her place in the world, went beyond her normal boundaries and discovered something new about herself.The difference is that the someone is a unicorn. Even though I saw this movie in my youth, it still resonates not only with me, but even with children today because it is about the human condition. The voice work is powerful and touching. The animation is clearly inspired by tapestries, relying more on the flatness of tapestries than attempting to create a true 3 dimensional reality. And yet it works. The only weak point in this movie is some of the singing. Mia Farrow and Jeff Bridges do not have singing careers for a reason. The story, though, is what stands out the most about this movie. The bittersweet ending is so real and so touching because we have all known that feeling after a life changing event of returning home to find that though it has not changed, we have and so our life can never be the same. But most importantly, watch it for yourself and decide.
