Customer Reviews of Terry Pratchett's Discworld - Wyrd Sisters
Great Movie with just the littlest problem I have grown to love all of Terry Pratchetts pieces. It is something you have to have a tatse for, the voices were really good. The animation isn't the best but as long as the story is told by Mr. Pratchett it won't matter much, the ending did somewhat come as a surprise to me, but I really should've expected it to come from him. I currently own all the Discworld book and the two video games that were released for the playstation.
Although this is made for all ages, if the kids will not watch 2.5 hours straight I see no reason why they would have to. The DVD has chapter selection and VHS comes on 3 tapes, watch part of it then come back later.
The only problem I have experienced with having the DVD version is a small animation glitch where the witches go to the rescue. At the castle door one of the witches tries to sell appples and the animation sticks for a sec, but other then that I love the movie.
A wonderful adaptation of a great book
First off, I should warn you that I am a Pratchett fan. I love the Discworld stories, and am very fond of his witches.
Whenever a beloved book is adapted to a screen, be it large or small, there is the risk of the director or the screenwriter botching the job (_The Postman_ comes to mind). Happily Keven Costner had nothing to do with this production.
The animation is of high quality, the voices were well cast (Christopher Lee does a splendid job as YOU KNOW WHO) and the story kept me and my children (ages 6 and 9) involved and amused.
Sure there are some plot elements that were shortened up, but I guess they didn't want an epic (speaking of Kevin Costner). And why in the name of Nipper did they put 1:48 of vid on 3 tapes? I recommend the DVD version just to save the shelf space!
Overall: A fine entertainment, not just for Pratchett fans.
Too bad!
I'm a HUGE Pratchett fan, own all the Discworld books, but this is just dreadful stuff. Poor drawing, poor animation, poor voice work, uninteresting music. Too bad, really. I bought both this and Soul Music, and wish I hadn't!
