Summary: The Unicorn's Song
Review: The Last Unicorn was my favorite movie as a child, it got me to read the book, which was far more meaningful in a way. I loved this movie, and watched it every day after school, so now my mom hates it, but thats ok. This movie tells the tale of a unicorn, set off to find her kin. She searches far and wide, and there are many events that happen on her way to the castle. I was a little miffed that they left out the story of Leer in the movie, but that is Ok, it makes it better for kids. Anyways, the story is great for anyone who believes in Unicorns, because it proves their point in a not-really,almost-sorta way....so there! Just kidding. I love this movie thoug. I still watch it on occassion, even though i dont watch it as much as i did as a kid.

Summary: Tears, Not Ratings
Review: It deeply upsets me as a teenager that modern movies, though entertaining, are meaningless. They are written for the purpose of being either PG13 or R or PG or G and parts are given to stars. The Last Unicorn isn't a "kid's movie" as some unwise adults put it. It is a movie that brings tears to the eyes of those who look for magic and perhaps even brings the unwilling eyes to tears as they realize they've never looked. To find true meaning I look to anime and movies such as this. They enrich the lives of the viewers and leave you with the feeling that there is more to life than sex and violence.

Summary: Loved it!
Review: I was a little upset when I read the other reviews. I absolutley loved the movie beginning to end. Ok, so maybe it's a few years older than I am, but ever since I went to that video store when I was about 3 and bought it, I loved it. I still watch it sometimes(when no one is around of course). I adore the songs, I think they are really great and almost tell a story on their own. Yes, the animation isn't as good as the Disney movies pulled off back then but it has that anime look and those kind of cartoons have always kept me watching. It may also be for the younger kid range but I know a lot of older people who loved it too. If you have that love for unicorns as many people do, I think you'll find this a great movie.

Summary: Put another log on the fire...
Review: I just thought I'd add my two cents to the other hundred or so 5-star, "this is one of the best movies I've ever seen" reviews that are already here. I've been watching this movie since I was small, and I catch something new every time I see it. There are many different layers to see through, and if you don't want to get into the philosophizing, you can just watch it for itself. Agreed, the songs are a bit cheesy, but I secretly know all the lyrics too... ;) Does anyone know if there's a plan to put this on DVD sometime soon?

Summary: A Forgotten 80's Classic
Review: I first saw this movie when I was three or four, and my dad recorded it onto a BETA tape for me. That's how long I've loved it. The animation is not quite Disney, but charming in its own way... sort of twirly and spiralling. The characters are developed nicely-- none are all good, but none are all bad. As I've gotten older, some of the dialoge strikes a 'cheesy' chord in me, but the vast majority is great. The music is... um, well, the impressions made in childhood tend to last for a long time. I loved it when I was a little kid, and now, intellectually, I know it's horrible and boring, but secretly I still know all the lyrics. I'm so excited that it's out on video now... and have you seen the Last Unicorn shirts at ...? Most excellent. Overall, I would say this movie is fine for any age group or family. There's nothing to offend anyone, yet it manages to entertain the entire time. A good idea is to also read the book by Peter S. Beagle (and every other book he's written), as it is one of the most faithful-to-the-book screenplays I've seen.

Summary: One of two Rankin/Bass movies that were truly magical...
Review: The animation is simplistic but elegant, the characters each look as if they should. The animators truly managed to get into the mind of Beagle and extract the designs to perfection. Thankfully, unlike alot of Disney cartoons, this movie was not 'dumbed down' for a children's audience, and stays faithful to the magic of the original story. I watched this as a child many times, the first when I was about four or even a year younger perhaps, and although total understanding wasn't quite in place yet, I enjoyed watching the unicorn and the terrifying (at the time) sequences with the red bull. It made a lasting impression that made me seek out the movie a few years ago now that I'm older and I still enjoyed the flick, perhaps even more than I did back then. Romantic and sweet, with moments of suspense, and a heartwarming story, whether you have read the book or not, it's worthy of watching again and again.

Summary: A Classic- One to be owned!
Review: I beg to differ from a previous review saying this is not for children under 7. I first saw this movie when I was 3 years old and I loved it then, as I love it still. I may not have fully grasped everything at that time but I was enchanted by the story and I've always loved the music. Well worth owning.
