Quite a lighthearted adventure film. Not all that great, of course—it was filmed by Bert I. Gordon, after all—but it's easy to pass the time with.

I agree with you, Vino; this was all actually quite watchable. A bit silly now and then, but the pace was pretty high and the effects aren't bad at all.
2.5*.

Despite the clumsiness and rather meager effects, I actually found this to be quite an entertaining adventure film with the familiar fairy tale theme of the wizard who kidnaps a princess and the young, brave, unknown hero who is in love with her and comes to rescue her.
