A terrific movie of a lone unicorn trying to find out what happened to others like her. When she finds out she decides to see if she can locate them and get them back. Along the way she finds close good friends a apprentice magician and cook of a bunch of outlaws. They make their way to the other unicorn's secret prison guarded by a huge red bull and a mean old king that never smiles. As they draw near the castle of the King. the red bull goes on the hunt and finds her, so to protect her from the prison the magician changes her into of all things, a beautiful young woman. The Evil kings son, Leer, sees her and almost immediately wants to do anything and everything to win her smile and love. The King knows who she is, but is waiting for her to change again so he may add her with the others. The magician must solve a few trivial challenges to figure out where the red bull's hidden lair is by talking to a crazy cat and silly skeleton on a fireplace. As days go by the beautiful unicorn gets confused by Leer's attempts of love and happiness that she can't make up her mind if she wishes to return being a unicorn or to stay a lady and marry Leer. The decision is made for her by running into the red bull.It has twists and turns for an ending. It's a movie for young minds and old --**not too young** -- will love and enjoy over and over. I strongly suggest seeing this movie there is a little something there for everyone to enjoy. Magicians Hero in training Knights Grumpy people as well. Five STARS !!!!Read full review
This movie is a classic and one that I have grown up with. I first saw it on the big screen when I was very young and loved it ever since. The Last Unicorn is animated which makes it appealing to children, but I believe that it is not a children's show. Don't get me wrong, it is appropriate enough, but some of the content can be very deep. I purchased this DVD for my daughter's 5th birthday, and I know she will be surprised because she really likes this movie as well. I recommend The Last Unicorn to anyone who likes fantasy and magic. Also, Mia Farrow did the unicorn's voice and it was awesome!
The voice actors are famous and well chosen, and even at the age of 30 one daughter bought the DVD. Even I liked it enough to watch it with them again. The story line is like a fable form days gone by. The animation artwork is similar to Rotoscoping of the Ralph Bakshi film "The Hobbit" from the 1970's. Or was it the Lord of the Rings? There are peaceful forests, stark lonely mountain ranges, a long journey across the world, a rom,ance story, and some "Oh my gosh" moments, such as when we realize we completely misunderstood how fearful 'the Red Bull' is going to be. The young apprentice magician is vulnerable, yet he is still trying to be the hero that everyone needs. That part was especially good.

This movie is one that my daughter and I watched many times when she was little. Now she is 24. She was in the kitchen singing this song and it was so familiar that I asked her what it was from. She said, remember that movie The Last Unicorn we used to watch all the time, of course I remembered. So, I thought I could surprise her with it for her birthday this year. She loved it and has watched it 3 times since getting it. The story is a good one, the characters are cool, the movie animation itself may seem outdated by others standards of the new CGI movies out there. That is what makes this movie unique, fun to watch and just as colorful as any other. It's a great movie to own, and watch over and over. You can't say that about many new movies, but there are a few.
I remember when I used to watch this cartoon when I was a little kid. At the time it scared me. The vulture, the bull... I wouldn't be surprised if I had nightmares about it all. But for some reason I was enthralled by it and couldn't stop watching it. Years passed, I grew up and eventually completely forgot about it. Until one morning when I was going through my friend's old VHS collection... "The Last Unicorn" I didn't remember the plot, actually, I didn't remember much about it. I just remembered that I loved it. I popped it into that acient-looking VCR... and it happened all over again. The tree, the wizard, the skeleton. It all hit me like a ton of glittery unicorn poop. Great for kids, entertaining enough for adults... and perfect for any fantasy lover, The Last Unicorn proves that a unicorn movie doesn't have to be all pink and girly.Read full review
