Synopsis

A dwarfish "Nelwyn" named Willow finds a baby adrift in a river and must protect it from an evil queen (Jean Marsh) bent on its destruction. Along with studly Madmartigan (Val Kilmer), Willow battles dragons and vanquishes evildoers, all the while shielding the infant from harm. Taken for what it is, the movie's a tribute of sorts to another film starring a diminutive hero, Lord of the Rings.

Cast: Val Kilmer, Joanne Whalley-Kilmer, Warwick Davis, Jean Marsh, Patricia Hayes, Billy Barty, Gavan O'Herlihy, David Steinberg, Phil Fondacaro, Kevin Pollak, Rick Overton, Kenny Baker

George Lucas's Willow is one of his most anticipated releases. Long out of print, it is a sleeper hit with a large underground following. I'd venture to say this is the best fantasy movie ever made. Willow was a bit of a proving ground for Lucas to try ideas he later polished in Star ... Complete Review

With talent such as George Lucas and Ron Howard involved, a film like Willow can't go wrong. Possessing all the elements of a good fair tale fantasy including a rogue hero, a lovely damnsel in distress and sentimental pint sized protagonists, Willow is a rousing and entertaining joust fit for the ...

Good entertainment for the grandparents as well as the 7 year old granddaughter. It was also nice to see a small adult person starring in a movie.
