The Otherworld

Set in mossy forests, sunlit fields and river valleys, the movie has a charming atmosphere, further strengthened by an enchanting soundtrack. If you love magic and mystery, this is your film! Based on Irish and Welsh folklore, this is a tale of the links between the human and fairy worlds, replete with Beltane celebrations, maypole dancing, divination and Druidry. At the heart of the movie is the enduring love of Immrama and Lugh, beings from different worlds, who are willing to go through great challenge and sacrifice to stay together. This lesson of love and loyalty makes the film fitting for the whole family. It's optimistic and imaginative, a breath of fresh air for anyone who needs a bit of magic in their day.

Horrible cinematography, utterly inexplicable and unfollowable plot. Terrible dialogue delivered by actors so incredibly wooden i thought they might start taking root. Very poor special effects.

I've given it 1 as the musical score isn't utterly without interest. Other than that failing to see any appeal at all. Trying to watch with my 6 and 9 year old daughters. They were both bored and wanting to turn it off after 10 minutes.

Haven't actually got to the end yet but writing the review to pass the time.

Not entirely sure how anyone could give this 10 out of 10...

Wow, what the heck is this? Poor story, wooden acting, lack of continuity. As another reviewer has said, it's like wandering into a hippy commune with a camcorder. Maybe it's best watched whilst on acid on something. Don't waste 80 minutes of your life on this, go for a walk, get outside, anything.

A lovely indie movie, enjoyable and full of imagination. If you enjoy fantasy this is a good movie for you. It is boiling over with the magic of folklore and has a great soundtrack. Along with wonderful costumes and delightful performances, this is a movie that makes you feel warm inside. You will be inspired to go out to the forest in search of sacred trees and fairies.

This film was a great disappointment. It consists mostly of poorly acted static scenes oddly edited together. There were occasions in the big battle sequence that almost captured fighting, but it was too fleeting to redeem the scene as a whole. Only the soundtrack held any interest at all. If you are looking for Irish folk tales Song of the Sea is vastly superior.
