Tells the story surrounding the mythology and history of Redbad, King of the Frisians.

It tries, but it’s just not very good. It’s full of heavy-handed moralizing.

A man’s son’s older self goes back in time to kidnap himself.

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen - (1988 movie) poster

A crazy old man appears in a war-torn city to correct the misconceptions of the retelling of his adventures.

It’s a great fluff fantasy movie. I didn’t see it back in the day, so it has no nostalgia for me. Left with what it is at face value, I can’t recommend it except for people who like the old 80s style of kids’ practical effects fantasy movies. Think The Dark Crystal – (1982 movie) or The Neverending Story – (1984 movie).

A man struggles with a split personality disorder, turning to an unlikely group of young women for counseling. Haha, just kidding it’s a kidnapping-horror movie.

Amazing acting, good writing, good all around. It’s contained, straightforward and engaging. It was assembled well enough that I didn’t take many notes.
