Editorial Review: Amazon.com essential video: Wolfgang Petersen (In the Line of Fire) made his first English-language film with this 1984 fantasy about a boy (Barret Oliver) visualizing the stories of a book he's reading. The imagined tale involves another boy, a warrior (Noah Hathaway), and his efforts to save the empire of Fantasia from a nemesis called the Nothing. Whether or not the scenario sticks in the memory, what does linger are the unique effects, which are not quite like anything else. Plenty of good fairy-tale characters and memorable scenes, and the film even encourages kids to read. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A lesson for all ages, but mostly us, the so-called grown-ups.In our high-tech, unimaginative world, this movie reminds us of what truly matters - the need to keep fantasy alive! It's a wonderful lesson! Rating: - The Never Ending StoryThis is a great movie for all ages. It's a modern "Wizard of Oz" story and I hghly recommend it. Rating: - Imaginative and beautifulThis is one of the most wonderfully imaginative movies that every child should see. It has wonderful imagery as well as a tone that encourages them to do their own imagining. I remember loving this movie when I was a child. When it came to DVD, I bought it up immediately and found, to my surprise, that I still loved it. That's the charm of a well-told story. This is one that children will eat up and parents will enjoy watching with them: both to see their children's eyes light up as ...

Well, maybe not the plot itself, but the pacing. This movie goes by WAY too fast. I don't feel any real connection to Atreyu because the plot moves along to fast and doesn't pose any real threat to him until the very end. First, after the horse that I didn't care about and is INCAPABLE of emotion died after sinking into the swamp of SADNESS, Atreyu looks pretty depressed, ... Read More Rating:  - Childhood classicThere are a few negative reviews of this movie, mostly "omg the book was so much better" and "neverending? it's only an hour and a half long!"... I haven't read the book, but I have always enjoyed this movie. I think it's a movie that everyone should see at some point in their lives. As far as the people who expected the movie itself to actually NOT END... that is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. If you actually pay attention to the movie, the point is that as long as people have hopes and ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
