Review of The Last Unicorn (1982) by Gene C — 19 Jan 2009

I watched it for the first time last night and at 36 its quite a different movie than what it may be when you are young. The butterfly in the beginning was high or drunk, carrying on and singing like a baffoon.

And when the magician turns the tree into a woman his head is stuck between two huge tree boobs, the harpy had 3 old saggy breasts and there was alot of morbid and sometimes terrifying death scenes. America was kinda driving me crazy with all the singing.

Mia Farrow as the lonely, lost unicorn after awhile got a little tired. This was my girlfriends fav as a kid so we gave it a go, made it about halfway and decided food was much more important and it lost out to the Wii when we got back.

It wasn't awful by any means and I may finish it today but as a kids movie I think it should have had a higher parental rating.
