The Last Unicorn Movie Review (spoilers)



I hate to say it, but I honestly thought I would like this movie much more. But all it really seemed to do was baffle me. This movie has most likely not been seen by many people and I only found out about it via a random chance occurring on YouTube.




The bad guys were ugly as usual, and there was a tripping scene where the human-unicorn almost dies, but nothing says old animated movie like cliche's do.

Lets see... oh right, I liked the movie because it was unique. But there were a lot of plot holes and everything happens so fast without any reason for them. I really did not understand why anything was happening, and there really wasn't any dramatic moments, or romantic moments outside of one song about love, and even then there isn't a single kissing scene. I can actually tell why this video was forgotten.

The voices are also not that great, the prince really can't sing well, and since this is an actual movie and not a YouTube video, I believe it should have been better.

I guess the only real big plus in here is that it has a unicorn in it. And it mentions narwhals in passing! I like magic but the spells in stuff in here really did not catch my interest.

But watch it and see how much you like it. but I will give it a 4/10

(Spoiler alert from here onward, summery of video)


It starts off as a bunch of hunters are searching for food, and found that (upon assumption) that the forest must belong to a unicorn and thus they would not be able to hunt, therefore they leave the forest and go elsewhere. The unicorn becomes confused because the hunters said that she was the last one. She talks to a butterfly that can only quote things it has heard and learns that the unicorns are being held by a red bull. The unicorn runs off to search for this red bull and gets captured by a magic-wielding circus group. One of the magician free's her and a harpie that kills everyone but the magician and the unicorn.  They set off down a road and the magician gets captured by a group of rouges who kidnap him for no reason and takes him to camp. He magic's his way out and meets up with the woman (who appears out of nowhere) at the camp who see's the unicorn and decides (for no reason at all) to go with them on their journey.

During their trip to this castle where the red bull lies they meet up with the red bull, who, although apparently cannot touch the unicorn can scare her into the castle, but before that can happen the wizard saves her by turning her into a human. In this shape they go up to the castle and asks to see the king, which he is able to do easily, and goes up to the kings broken down thrown room and easily gets jobs as the kings helpers.

Yadda yadda blah blah, she falls in love with the prince and almost turns completely human. now they find the unicorns in the sea and they are corned by the red bull, the magician turns the girl back into a unicorn, the prince dies failing to save her, and the unicorn fought back and drove off the red bull, something the other hundreds of unicorns could not do... the king falls of a cliff and dies, and his kingdom crumbles down. she revives the prince and goes to live in her forest, the prince goes on his own, and the women and the magician stay together. The end
