If you love 80s relics, none come more gorgeously artificial than Ridley Scotts faerie tale Legend.

Scott has managed to stir up the loopiest flat footed fantasy since John Boorman disgorged Zardoz lo these many movie years ago.

Look, the real wonder of WW84 is that this maybe isnt the worst thing about it.
Film Freak Central

Cruise exhibits the likability he so often displays in films, and even Mia Sara isnt all that annoying.
Contact Music

However, the best thing about the DVD is probably that it is in widescreen and allows one to enjoy Scotts sumptuous visuals.

With such spectacular visuals, quality of performance isnt really the point here, but an unrecognisable Curry is excellent.

Could have been a genre classic if it had benefited from a meatier screenplay and a studio that didnt butcher the final product.

Its production design, special effects, and overall look cant be faulted. But its hackneyed story about good versus evil is so insipid and dull that n ..
