It's way to weird and not very funny. This is definitely a fantasy movie, but I really didn't sense any magic in it. I thought that Labyrinth was a much better movie. If you're a big Terry Gilliam fan, you might want to get this. I personally like 12 monkeys and Time Bandits way more than this.

The contemporary re-make is a piece of junk in comparison with the original.<p>The original movie was reissued and was available for a while, a couple of years ago. I viewed it (from a video rental store), but I missed the opportunity to buy it then and now, suddenly, it is not available anymore.<p>PLEASE, TRY TO LOCATE IT FOR ME!

It runs for about 10 minutes and then just stops. Rating: 1 / 5 Like the Dinosaur Collector’s Edition DVD, this one won’t play on my Pioneer Elite DV-37 player.

"you CAHNT quit!" "i don't like you anymore"! how Disneyish! instead of a dashing hero swordfighting with 20 bad guys, i got a weirdo who runs 150 miles an hour. instead of thrills, excitement and humor, i got an old man travelling to the moon ina hot air balloon(come on!) and meeting people with detatchable heads, and some white faced dude screaming "I am your elephant of joy!" oh for Pete's sakes! there are some OK scenes near the end, but it's not worth your time or money, and you should just go rent Mask Of Zorro again instead.

It was utter rubbish from start to end. Although I have liked Terry Gilliams work this has to be the biggest waste of time ever. Rating: 1 / 5 If I could give this no stars then I would.
