(2004 Director Robert Lieberman) Simply superb fantasy!..I had to wait paitiently over one week befrore I got to watch this (because of finishing finals this semester) May I recommend that you watch it with the Direcotrial comments on?) Did justice (in my opinion) to the Ursula K. LeGuin book Wizard of Earthsea triolgy it is based upon. Danny Glover was wonderful; young Shawn Ashmore (Merry-LOTR) is even more adorable with a scar on this face! Little Lana (Kristin Kreuk-Smallville) makes a lovely priestess...3 lovely woemn star in this including DREAMY....Personally? I thought Sebastian Roche was hot as the Evil King of the G's. And kudos to the lovely talented Isabella Rosselini. The Director's input I listened to through the whole movie. It consisted of some movie-making tip..and also several apologies for having made this movie on a budget about 1/20th of that of Lord of the Rings! I thought this movie did NOT suffer from its bare but adequate $15 million budget.
