This a lovely and charming epic fantasy with lots of heart. I got lost in this sweet film watching it at the Mann's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. It's truly romantic with a touching message.The artwork and the effects are visually striking and the fact that the director is an amazing artist is so apparent. The frames are like watching moving art. It also has a strong and talented cast of actors. What a wonderful surprise to see Joss Ackland, he is just a fairy-tale perfect King. Sarah Douglas is terrific as the villain and Christine Taylor and Tom Schultz make a lovely romantic pair. The fact that the movie was made on a ridiculously tiny indie film budget just blows me away. It may not be the slick Hollywood stuff we're inundated by but it's a really nice movie to rent and enjoy curled up on your sofa on a rainy Saturday. Don't forget the microwave popcorn. That's my advice. Just enjoy it.
Wretchedly Delicious. I watched this movie just to make fun of it. I can't believe it was made in 1996. I've seen better special effects on old Doctor Who episodes! I kept expecting Crow, Tom and Joel to pop up to make fun of the movie. The acting was horrible. The action was nonexistent. However, it's great laugh and I highly recommend it if you enjoy bad movies.

I watched this movie for the first time ever on the Sci Fi channel and I must say.. it was simply awesome. For those of you whom loves 'The Never Ending Story' this is one that would bring back memories of that movie. Even though it is a 1996 movie it has a hazy like setting and look which makes it feel like it is, a fantasy. The acting was brilliant and the music was great especially the beginning battle song and end song. To those of you who have yet to see it, WATCH IT! I recommended completely!
First of all, ignore anything opolic said. They say "Karnissa" many times during the film. Obviously this hack watched the first 5 minutes and the last 5 minutes of the film only.
I wouldn't recommend this as a rental. But for TV watching this would be OK viewing. Plot and character development is sketchy, and confusing at times. OK special effects. Interesting universe. Nice overall "love above all" theme. Physics are a bit skewed.
Overall, I would give this a good popcorn rating. This is not a serious film in any regard, but it gives a good summer afternoon Saturday or Sunday a good way to pass the time.

This is one of the only films ever made with a sky kingdom & airship aesthetic. It is incredible how they keep accomplishing scene after scene of old school effects, miniatures, and costumes to sell a bigger scope. It is some kind of feat; no doubt the filmmakers could have scaled and built the scaffolds to a Ridley Scott film or something. The movie itself though is Power Rangers tier, practically unwatchable; but the rest is something the universe reacts to. It is a Herzogian feat, the stuff dreams are made of. It is simply not the viewers lowly place to tell them they succeeded or not. Massive respect.

- TriviaThe director of this movie, Markus Rothkranz, has several videos on his You Tube channel about how he made the movie with such a small budget and limited resources. He built and painted a number of the sets, props and miniatures himself, and created many of the costumes.
- GoofsObvious miniature work during the initial assault sequence: castle towers wobble from nearby explosions, clearly visible strings holding the models and pieces of the exploding flying ships are left hanging in the air.
