Here Comes the Grump

Balloon kingdoms, silly police dragons and happy wizards are exactly how Terry remembered his grandmother's wacky fairy tales. Except they're real and it's definitely not that 'cheerful'. Balloon kingdoms, silly police dragons and happy wizards are exactly how Terry remembered his grandmother's wacky fairy tales. Except they're real and it's definitely not that 'cheerful'. Very cute, beautiful graphics and colorful, even my goddaughter sighed "how beautiful" when she started the movie with colorful scenarios, a pity not to have dubbed for the non-bilingual little ones... Lots of vibrant colors, to illustrate the "Once upon a time" of princess nothing conventional, or on the edge of convention, with wizards and princes by chance, all very cute, with cute morals...

I'm a 60 year old Grandma now, but I remember, as a little girl, watching the cartoon this is based on most Saturday mornings with my Dad. He would laugh out loud at it. It's not badly done, and is entertaining for those of us who remember the cartoon. It brings back warm memories for me. My grandkids like it.

A Wizard's Tale I decided to watch this movie specifically because it looked bad. And while it did look bad, I was more disappointed with the actual writing. Nothing about it stands out. Even if Pixar made this with a good budget, I still really wouldn't like it. Everything about this movie is forgettable except for the fact that the animation looks bad. I watched it 20 minutes ago, and I can't remember any scene. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

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.

It might be because I was under the influence, seeing as how alot of people seem to have hated it...but I actually didn't mind it? I mean yeah it wasn't great, there were some pacing issues, especially in the beginning. But I certainly wasn't bored watching it, I actually laughed a couple times. I'm not super familiar with the original show, but from what little I've seen I recognized alot from the movie right away. The show wasn't bad either honestly. The world the movie is set in really is kinda trippy and is really unique. The characters, while some of them could've probably used work in the looks department, were at least dynamic and had shown character development and change by the end of the movie. Overall with more budget and and better pacing I think this movie would've been alot more popular.

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!

...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.

The animated film A Wizard's Tale directed by Andres Couturier was a fun and vibrant adventure. This children's film of good vs. evil is an amusing story that keeps your attention with its colorful characters voiced by the talented Lily Collins, Ian McShane, and Toby Kebbell. I got lost in the story and found myself routing for the main character Terry (Toby Kebbell), a teenage boy who gets transported to a magical kingdom where it finds himself helping a princess defend her kingdom. The story line is dynamic and the soundtrack includes upbeat songs which amplify the energetic atmosphere created in the film. The animation was very impressive, I think Craig Kellem did a great job designing the characters in a bubbly style that I haven't seen before which made the human characters look lively. I was also impressed by the amount of wacky supporting characters the film had which elevated the entertainment value. Overall, I was very impressed by this independent animation and I highly recommend watching A Wizard's Tale.

Seriously, don't waste a moment of your time - we watched this at home and it was so bad I considered moving house! Everything is utterly awful. The voices don't really make sense with the characters, the animation is terrible and the only thing worse is the writing! OMG how did anyone read the script for this and think 'oh that's a good movie' - whoever did, needs to be seen by some senior psychologists because they clearly aren't making good decisions. If there is one good thing that comes out of this movie, I hope it's that everyone involved with this project decides to leave the animated movie business and do something else with their lives - because it obviously isn't working for them. Save yourselves - don't just avoid watching this, ban it from your houses and tell everyone you ever meet (just stop random people in the street) to never watch 'Here comes the Grump'.

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