This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
... View MoreStylish but barely mediocre overall
... View MoreFantastic!
... View MoreBlending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
... View MoreThis is such a cute movie. Doesnt everyone wish there was a little world out there in the forest? I mean does anyone remember FernGully? It takes the imagination places and thats what I love about it. Its great for kids to feel motivated to get outdoors to and play!
... View MoreAmanda Seyfried did a really good job with voicing M.K in this movie. I don't know how many times I have watched this film, to be honest while I'm writing this I'm watching it on TV.From the part with the Queen opening the pink flowers so the purple flower to grow to the scene where the the flower girl who later becomes queen mother says to her it doesn't work that way cause her daughter was saying how she wanted to be queen. Then the Queen chooses the pod and says this is the one. And the scene where MK is looking for her dog and sees the Queen go down and goes closer to her and the Queen gives her the pod and the she shrinks down to their size and than the Queen DIES right in front of her and then Ronin comes grabs the Queen in her arms and she then become leaves and her remains go into the wind and Ronin then tried to take the pod away from MK and MK pushes him away and pod like hangs onto her. Okay I won't stop if I continue, overall the film was AWESOME
... View MoreSigh. Why is this called "Epic"? It has no relevance to the subject or story, & it's an annoying common word misused too much today. A better title would have been "Generic Forest Film" or "Buy a Ticket.. Beyonce's in it".Seriously though, Beyonce's over-dub is the worst I've heard since Bruce Lee voiced the Russian! Why is she in this film? Did she go to Drama School? Is she stage trained? Because she doesn't know how to act!! Terrible decision.The animation is great if a little sequenced with the same constant lens focus effect. Even some of the music is touching when we're not just hearing cue after cue. But it's just the characters aren't particularly that interesting or realistic. The only person I ever connected with was the Farther & his plight.No one is ever in danger from falling it seems as they keep getting up upon falling flat on their face. And Ronin is invincible. I also think how the villain was defeated is cheap & highly questionable too.Ferngully is a very similar film, but they surprisingly have more creative ideas & Tim Curry as the villain felt very sinister & foreboding.It's an OK film. Don't expect too much & you'll be surprised with some of the gags maybe. But you won't be blown away like with Disney/Pixar.
... View MoreMK is a young girl who moves in with her father after her mother's death. However, her father is obsessed over proving that in the woods live an advance society of really small people. MK doesn't believe him, until she turns into one of those small people. Epic is a nice movie, not very good, but not horrible either. It's not Epic however. It sure has some action scenes, but the whole concept isn't adventurous. The script has some funny lines, and the story between father and daughter is good, but the romance... unnecessary in my opinion. The movie has many known actors (or their voices at least) and some of the scenes are beautiful, but the movie as a whole is so- so. So 4 out of 10, because I wouldn't watch it again.
