| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzLooking like a Beach Party movie with swords. |
| Common Sense MediaBrian CostelloKitschy knight quest is fun '60s flashback; some battles. |
| PopMattersSarah Boslaugh[Estelle} Winwood provides some campy humor (I kept thinking of Bewitched every time she was on screen)... |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid NusairHeavy on laughable special effects and outrageously broad performances... |
| User ReviewMichael Hterrible B grade movie that is so awful that it's great. Evil Midgets, Cone heads, Albino-Siamese twins, and the list goes on. I love this movie. |
| User ReviewJohn EThe Magic Sword is great fantasy fun! The special effects are good, the cast is great! |
| User ReviewJersey BoyI give kudos to this old movie from 1962. Ofcourse it doesnt look as good as movies from today, but it had a good story. The main character George is equipt with a super fast horse, armor that is pretty much invincible and a magic sword. If he can save a princess that was kidnapped by sorceror,by going through 7 curses, fighting demons and other creatures along the way...he can have her hand in marriage. Good movie, I recommend it for medieval fans. |
| User ReviewZach HThe closest thing to being a parody of fantasy movies without actually being a parody. Our hero stalks a princess using a magic pool and then decides to save her when a sorcerer publicly announces that he kidnapped her. Luckily, he also announced where he is keeping the princess so our hero knows where to look. He is accompanied by 6 knights of stereotypical nationalities. What follows is a ton of laughable film-making that you will want to share with your friends. |
| User ReviewLisa BHilarious cheese!! Yeah it's corny, yeah the hairstyles were bad, yeah it's old but you just can't help but like it!! |
| User ReviewPrivate ULot of good stuff here: bad dialogue, terrible effects, masterful storytelling, beautiful chicks, princesses, dragons, bad intended comedy and good unintended comedy. Basil Rathbone, Maila Nurmi, AND sleazy midgets. 4 stars if you are a turkey lover. |
