È arrivato il Broncio

...so I guess it hits the mark for its target audience. For me, it was a bit here and there with a flimsy storyline. Nice animation.

This is really nice animation with happy ending! This could be really in time for family evening. It is worth to see it for once!

This is the remake of a semi obscure TV series from the 60's, a Saturday morning cartoon for kids that not many people remember, so much so that they even changed the title in many countries to A Wizard's Tale, seeing that few people got the reference. Saying this movie is fifty years too late is an understatement. But that would be besides the point if the movie had a good story, a good animation and was fun. But, unfortunately, this is not the case. The story is banal, the animation is horrendous and that makes for a not very fun movie.

A Wizard's Tale (2018), directed by Andrés Couturier, is an animated fantasy film that attempts to bring a magical world to life through a quirky, humorous lens. The story follows Terry, a young man who discovers that the wacky fairy tales his grandmother once told him are not only real, but far more dangerous than he could have imagined. As Terry embarks on a journey to rescue his grandmother, he encounters balloon kingdoms, dopey police dragons, and an array of strange characters, all while navigating a world that is not as cheerful as it first appeared.

The voice cast, including Ian McShane, Toby Kebbell, and Lily Collins, brings energy to the characters, but the performances feel underwhelming given the potential of the material. Terry, voiced by Toby Kebbell, is a likable but somewhat bland protagonist, and while McShane's character adds a touch of gravitas, the film doesn't fully explore the richness of its magical world or characters. The whimsical setting and colorful animation style do their best to create a sense of wonder, but the visuals often lack the depth and polish needed to fully immerse the viewer.

The film's pacing is uneven, with certain moments dragging on longer than necessary and others feeling rushed. The narrative, while lighthearted, lacks the emotional depth or compelling stakes to make it resonate beyond its surface-level adventure. The humor, aimed at both children and adults, falls flat at times, with jokes that feel forced or out of place in the context of the fantasy world.

Despite its whimsical premise and colorful world, A Wizard's Tale doesn't manage to capture the magic of more successful animated adventures. It's a fun, family-friendly watch, but it lacks the substance and charm to make it truly memorable.

Rating: 4/10. A whimsical adventure that never quite reaches its potential, offering light entertainment but little emotional or narrative depth.

This move act like craziness. I don't like this kind of animated movie.
