Tales from the NeverEnding Story - The Gift Reviews
More Thrilling Than The First Installment!!...
This is the second DVD in the "Tales" series. In this fantastic volume Atreyu and Fly Girl journey to the Southern Oracle to find a cure for the Childlike Empress. He meets two odd characters that offer to "help" him get through the ominous riddle gate. Meanwhile, Xyide travels to the Ivory Tower to do away with her sister(the empress). The dying empress uses the last bit of her power to shield off Xyide's attacks and puts a protective shield around herself so that Xyide cannot harm her. Back in our world, Bastian sees his mothers ghost at night. His father, thinking that there are to many memories in their old home, decides to sell the house(with a little persuasion from a not-so-nice real estate agent, who is actualy a spy from Xyide) and move on with their lives. This volume contains some of the most exciting and dramatic moments in the entire series. This is one of the best family series I have seen in a long time. Most of these reviews are not fair and are WAY to critical. It's important to view this series with and open mind. I think all fantasy lovers will enjoy this series and for those who do not typically view fantasy movies, I think you will be pleasently surprised.
This must end!
*This also refers to part one of the series*
How about a new film in theatres..."The Neverending Story IV:Escape From The Tragic Canadian TV Series"?
I cannot believe that even one person would stick up for this tripe. It saddens me. Deep down, it saddens me to think that people would obligingly lower their standards and say, "Well, it's okay. It could have been worse." Could have been worse? Anything could always be worse! I'm giving it one star because they spelled the title correctly. There will be no further argument...YES, this is as bad as we say it is. NO, it's not the worst thing ever, but we aren't comparing here. We are rating this particular series, not the series in light of Harry Potter or Galidor or whatever has taken the spotlight these days. This particular series should be ashamed to have the title "The Neverending Story" attached to it, although, as I mentioned, they did spell it correctly. You don't have to stick to it word for word, but I refuse to endorse inventing asinine characters, events, plotlines and props simply to keep a new generation of kids glued to the television. That's not a new spin, it's a sinister gimmick. Sticking to the original storyline and utilizing the new technological capabilities would have produced far better results. So, please, I'm begging you, if you watch this series, be familiar with the book. Do not go into the breach unarmed.
