I’m a 90s baby who grew up on this movie. I haven’t seen it in more than two decades now, but watching this now was just as enjoyable as watching it as a child. I believe the story holds up, even if the animation is dated. I think the animation actually adds to the experience but maybe that’s because of nostalgia. I still highly recommend this movie to anyone. It’s a timeless classic that I believe everyone could take something away from. Read more
This movie basically entails the last of the known unicorns in the world, and a quest on which she embarks to discover what happened to the others of her kind. She meets a bunch of interesting characters along the way who follow her and support her on her journey. Okay, so... the above gives you the basic premise. I don't want to spoil the movie for you, so I won't include any specifics from here on out. I will say that the animation quality is more than sufficient, the songs are pretty good, and with the exception of ONE voice-actor's singing voice, the voice acting is pretty good. But that's not why I've rated this movie five stars. I might say I've rated this movie five stars because it is a dark, serious cartoon with some very deep messages driving it. One might conclude I've given it five stars because the character-development is phenomenal -- because even an eternal being like our main protagonist (the unicorn) finds herself swayed by the events that she encountered on her journey. The real reason I give it five stars is because this movie hit the nail on the head for me in one specific, very moving scene. Our protagonist meets her first travel companion fairly early in the film, but it's the point where the second traveling companion finally sees the unicorn for the first time that moved me so. With my fantasy-oriented imagination, it was very easy for me to relate to that character's feelings across age and gender differences. You'll know the scene and the character when it happens. Every second of it is beautiful, and even if you HATE the rest of the movie you should watch it at least once for that one scene. Read more
This was a film I watched once on Prime and was surprised to learn it was from Rankin/Bass! They were responsible for the classic televised Christmas specials like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Santa Claus is Com’n to Town, The Little Drummer Boy etc. Aside from that, the animation is very close in feel to Disney’s Sleeping Beauty. The plot in itself is interesting. The Unicorn is trying to find more of her own kind. While at the same time, she is curious in knowing of the mystical creature Red Bull. Soon, she is on an episodic adventure meeting a few human characters until discovering a small kingdom that might have the answers she seeks. Another high point in this film is that there is a lot of prominent voice actors. My favorite being Christopher Lee, followed by Jeff Bridges, Mia Farrow, Angela Lansbury and many more. The only gripe I have about this film is that there are songs that detract the pacing of the plot and can be forgettable. Overall, I would consider giving this a watch. Not to say a classic but a curiosity for those interested in finding more Rankin/Bass movies. Even for a casual I would still consider this a watch. Rent it if you have to on Prime if interested.

this is my first time seeing it. I know an animated classic when I see one. Snow White, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, The Little Mermaid, The Rescuers Down Under, Little Nemo in Slumberland, Aladdin, The Secret of NIMH, The Land Before Time, The Lion Ming. All I saw as a kid. Then there are the ones I discovered later in life, such as Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Shrek, Tangled, Frozen, Princess Mononoke, Grave of the Fireflies, Nausicaa of The Valley of the Wind, Castle in the Sky, The Lord of the Rings, even something as new as Weathing With You, Belle, the 4 Evangelion rebuild films and the 2 originals, or more ambitious animated films like Loving Vincent. By the time the movie was over and the music was playing, I swelled up and I was in tears. That never happens. If you’re in your 40’s like me, you feel old, this movie is for you. Please, don’t just stream it, own it like I do. It’s worth the price. You won’t regret it. Read more
