Unico en la isla de la magia

Unico: To The Magic Island or Unico: In The Island Of Magic is a very unusual animated film! Its funny and has a very dark theme to it. The music is good and fits the film. The animation is very good and is similar like the animation seen in Voltron: Defender of the Universe. The color of the cartoon is really beautiful. It has some great effects when it comes to the storms, rain, and all of the magic scenes. The English voices are cool. I thought that the voice and the look of Kuruku was really fitting. This is a very hard to find movie because its out of print and if you find this tape any where on the web, at a video store, or at some type of sale buy it immediately especially if it ha sit original case! This really is a great animated film! If you like animated features and want to see one with a dark nature and store then Unico: In The Island Of Magic is the one to watch!

This is by far the most adorable anime I have ever seen. The first time I saw it, I was about eight years old. My little sister and I were mesmerized - from the cutsey animation to the haunting music to the dark, unusual, and fast-moving storyline.

I should also mention the fact that this film has the creepiest villain I have ever seen in a cartoon - a wooden marionette who flies around in a bubble and transports himself by beams of light. His facial contortions and voice are indescribably eerie and it's fun to be freaked out by him.

Unico and the Sphinx have the cutest little animated faces you've every seen, and the way they bound around on screen is irresistibly adorable.

Now, even though this film does contains "cutesy" qualities that will captivate the little girls and the little girls at heart, it also has a dark theme that will appeal to a more mature and masculine audience as well. Evil Lord Kuruku has turned all of the humans in the world into "living puppets" and it's up to Unico and his little friend Cheri to restore humanity.

The music is hauntingly lovely and unmistakably memorable. Straight A, right there.

Although I loved this as a child, I still find it equally entertaining as an adult and have watched it many times over the years.

I think this whimsical story will appeal to the young as well as the older anime lovers alike. I just had to write a review because I love sharing this film with people who have not yet discovered it!

This movie is now available on DVD and can be purchased from Ebay or Amazon, so if you are an anime lover, I'd recommend picking up a copy. It would be a very difficult movie to dislike.

I saw this film when I was about 8 years old. SOme of the images are still imprinted in my head. The film is all a fantasy should be: A glorious, beautiful, surreal and sometimes dark and terrifying fairy tale.

This deserves to be released on DVD along with it's prequel as they are truly fantastic gems. I don't know if the film would hold up to an adult audience, but it surely made my mind fly at the time.

The animation is vintage Tezuka, with the cute puppy-eyed main characters, colorful villains all with a few extra frames of animation (compared to his 1960s TV series, the animation is a step up in quality) All this topped with a imaginative story and haunting score, gives birth to a classic.

My mom gave me a lot of the video tapes she recorded for me when I was very little. I still have this rare gem (on the same tape as Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer). I also have the first Unico movie. Seeing it as an adult gives you a different perspective of it. I loved it as a child and now I watch it with my kids. If you are reading this I hope you can find it. It is a very dark movie. I also think it had a great storyline. Kuruku is positively evil. He really scared me when I was little. I also love Mel (where can I get some of those earphones?) and the little sphinx thing. If you can find this movie and you like animation, treat yourself.

Excellent film about a cute little unicorn named Unico who has special powers. The second in the Unico seris. Can be a little confusing if you havn't seen the first one. It is a heart-warming tale about the cruelty of humuns and the joy of friendship. Personally I think everyone should see it, even though it may be hard to find since it has been discontinued.
