Boring, Slow to start, little storyline

wishesnz

The movie rambles on in a dull black and white style filming for about 30 minutes trying to set up some background scenes. Its very dreary and uninteresting, half it doesn't make much sense.

Then it suddenly switches into more colour where it gets a little better. Here the storyline gets a little more interesting though I did notice almost word for word in some places lines from other movies such as 'Never Ending Story' and similar. It resembles The Labyrinth a lot, only a poorer copy. Most of the monsters appear to have the same 'Darth Vader' style voice.

Overall I would never hire it again. The beginning was dreadful and the only reason it got a 2 was because of the rest 'running around trying to get the mask'. The storyline was blatantly ripped from various other movies (if at all you could call it a storyline). And the most of the scenes were either ripped from other movies or to artsy to be actually interesting.

score 2/10
