Henry D @Henry_Domke Aug 21, 2026 Weird and wonderful, and a unique cinematic experience. I kept shaking my head trying to adjust to the Cinerama widescreen effect, which at times seemed almost three-dimensional. The movie itself was old-fashioned and the story was fairly minor. By today's standards, the costumes looked surprisingly cheap and poorly made, which made their Academy Award hard to fathom. But the sets were spectacular, and there were a dozen fine actors to enjoy. None of it felt natural, but it was fun. The recent restoration has produced a finely detailed image, and the voices were remarkably clear.

Animator George Pal also produced some magical stop-motion puppetry including - in the film's best sequence - a fire-breathing dragon which battles Terry-Thomas and Buddy Hackett. Laurence Harvey and Karl Boehm play the brothers in the dramatic sequences, which tend to drag. See more s r @ScottR Dec 7, 2014 Goes to show how good Disney really is. See more Jul 8, 2013 Very charming. 1st widescreen movie to be released. The acting is a little hokey but I relate to the message. There's a moment in the film when his characters come visit him. We all long for these fictional characters were real somehow. And if you created the characters you long to meet them so much more. Be ready to fast forward. Some scenes (like dance sequences) draaaaaaaag on. See more Read all reviews
