Summary / AnnotationCOMMUNITY REVIEWS
Wonderful submitted by Daniel Saltzman on January 15, 2011, 9:12pm This is a lost classic of the 80's, an example of just how expressive claymation films can be. Yes, this is a children's film, but children will not understand everything so it offers something for older viewers as well. My favorite act was "The Mysterious Stranger".
disapointing submitted by jayin on August 18, 2011, 9:17pm I was hoping for something closer to his books
