tbutterful I don't like films that are overly preachy. A lot of religious films tend to preach to the point of being redundant. Thankfully this is not one. Voyage of the Unicorn had me caught up in the adventure, so much, that I did not realize it was trying to convey a message about having faith. It was there from the beginning but not to the point of knocking my head with it.The Aisling family has to escape trolls by traveling to another universe. The lose of the Aisling matriarch is still very upsetting to them. This adventure serves as an awakening to a new start. The family grows stronger through having faith.This could be a completely misguided assessment. It just seems like this is what was done. This movie isn't perfect, with several odd moments, but it will suffice for a presumably low budget fantasy film. As a bonus the music score and selections are nice fit for this film.

vitachiel Worst kind of family film. Although the make up department must certainly have sweated their pants out, the total outcome is outright ugliness. First of all, the story is very uninteresting and uninspiredly written; they try to blend a number of different and unrelated mythical stories and come up with a moronic hotchpotch that's really an insult to intelligence. It all looks like nobody cared to write a descent script and it seems as if every single scene is improvised from scratch without any rehearsal what so ever. The characters are utterly predictable and fail miserably in creating a personality. Their overdone goodness and badness gives me the creeps. Beau Bridges is the scariest of all. A family film monster if you ask me.

Gore_Won Some good eye candies are ruined in this movie by the most outrageous comments I've heard in a children's movie. "When it comes to magic, don't ask too many questions" came out of one child's mouth. The writer's obviously no fan of William Drummond ("He that will not reason is a bigot; he that cannot reason is a fool; he that dares not reason is a slave"). Or how about some Socrates ("There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance")."Faith precedes miracles" is another gem from the child. But when faith doesn't work, it's fate, or God's will, or a test, or, uh, mysterious ways.The film also sets up from the start a false dichotomy about reality and magic. That, of course, implies a god of the gaps, and in any case, as Friedrich Nietzsche pointed out, "a casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything." The funniest thing, though, is that the dad let slip that "snakes are common in mythology." Then the child devalues the library.Then the dad attempts magic and the daughter an Indian dance. The story ends with the girl saying, "By believing one sees." That's all the evidence anyone has of faith: they must first delude themselves.

greenpoint-1 Really terrible. Acting is bad at its best places. No discernible plot, and special effects and stunt sequences are laughable. Looks like it was filmed with a video camera, by a blind man. Really terrible. Acting is bad at its best places. No discernible plot, and special effects and stunt sequences are laughable.
