It was the director's cut, and while it's still not an amazing film it's much more solid and entertaining and fulfilling than the theatrical US version, aside from the scores. I really wish Scott would have left the Tangerine Dream score in there as I find the Goldsmith score to ...( read more)
Booyah. This is my kind of crazy... hoaky but crazy. I get a big kick outa watchins goblins wielding crossbows and water witches dispaying their brute strength. Fun and mystically charged.
This is one of the old standby movies of my childhood, still dear to me, still magical and enchanting.
I'll write more later, but for now I feel I should mention that the Director's Cut is very different from the original US theatrical version -- I liked the new scenes and all, ...( read more)
One of the few pre-LOTR fantasy films that's able to work on multiple levels, and unlike most of its 80's counterparts Legend feels like an actual, inhabited world, lived in by "real" people (and not just puppets). Instead of stopping every five minutes to introduce a wacky new c...( read more)
A great fantasy film. Wonderful performances, including Tim Curry and Tom Cruise, a lovely tale with both light and dark. Starts slowly, but it's worth the buildup.
one of my absolut faves. Is it wrong that i have a crush on the devil hahaha
One of favorite fantasy films! I love this movie so much. Tim Curry is an excellent villain and the movie itself a technical masterpiece. The Director's Cut is even better, but the domestic theatrical version with the Tangerine Dream score still excellent.
Well done for the 80s relating to special effects and costume design but the story would be much better if I were young again and actors didn't have to be convincing. Tim Curry as Darkness saved it from being unbearable as an adult and the story is better than the movie Labyrinth...( read more)
A good fantasy movie all around. Could have been a little bit more action, but its still a good tale and the music is good on both tracks that were used too. Lets have and see more imagination in other movies like this in the future.
Another one of my favourite fantasy movies from the 80's. Classic tale of Good vs Evil. I love how dark the movie is. Sheer classic.
Legend is a Classic, a classic in the sense that if you're a fan of Fantasy or if your ''heart beats fierce and free'' then this is a true fantasy masterpiece. Let's look at this films pedigree Ridley Scott had just delivered the yardstick by which Sci-Fi is now and the standard ...( read more)
Great. Loved watching this at my ants house when we were younger. Mostly becuse of the unicorns.
For a bad guy, Tim Curry kinda' came off as a big wuss. Not Tom's best work and ugh...just not worth watching more than once if at all.
The most beautiful and visually impressive film ever made. Legend is a dark fairy tale that will leave you absolutely breathless and spellbound. Ridley Scott beautifully captures each scene. There is not a single second in this film that isnt completely breathtaking. This film is...( read more)
You really need to see the director's cut of this film, it's so much better you can't really compare the two.
at this poc,the machin cruise was a good actor with more imperfection,but good actor,now.....beurk
